Abstract: A sleeping apparatus has an outer layer having an inner liner superimposed and coextensive with the outer layer and connected to each other, and an amusement feature provided on either the outer surface of the inner liner or the outer surface of the outer layer. A rigid pad can be positioned between the inner liner and the outer layer, or coupled to the outer surface of either the inner liner or the outer layer. As an alternative, the sleeping apparatus can have a panel having a foldable frame member having a folded and an unfolded orientation, with a fabric material covering portions of the frame member to form the panel when the frame member is in the unfolded orientation. This sleeping apparatus also includes a blanket portion coupled to the panel in a manner to define an internal sleeping space.
