Matching Family Christmas Pjs to Buy for 2026
Updated: Oct 30
Matching family Christmas pyjamas are one of my favourite traditions. We even wear ours for the annual Santa photo, fur baby included. If you're looking for family Christmas PJs for 2026, I've rounded up the styles that caught my eye, from cheerful Christmas prints to classic stripes and a little Toy Story nostalgia.
Our tradition started in 2016 when my husband and I met. I'm fairly sure matching Santa photos weren't on his bingo card, but when the love of your life is obsessed with Christmas, what can you do? Over the years we've tried expensive sets, Boxing Day sale finds and cheaper options. I still get excited choosing them.
Target Christmas Icons for a cheerful family print
The Target Christmas Icons range is very cute. I love the size of the festive illustrations; they really do scream Christmas fun. It would be one of my first looks if I were shopping for several children and wanted a bright, playful print.
The shorts style could suit a warm Aussie Christmas, although I am personally a long-pants girl. I wish more ranges gave us both options. Check the available styles and sizes for each family member before committing to the print.
These start at $15 so a great affordable option.
Best and Less stripes for a classic Christmas look
Red and white stripes? Very Christmas. This is the range that had me reconsidering the expensive small-business pre-order I'd already made. I love that the collection pictured includes options for the fur babies too, because of course the dog needs to be involved.
The pants and shorts options are a big part of the appeal for me. If your family has different sleepwear preferences, a shared print can still give you the matching look. Check which cuts and pet sizes are available when you shop.
With the price starting at $12 these are also a fantastic affordable option.

Boohoo pink candy canes for a matching mum and daughter look
One for my girlie pops. I love matching my girls, and pink with candy-cane hearts is a very easy yes from me. This is a mum-and-daughter idea if you're after something a little different from the traditional red-and-green family set.
If you're shopping from Australia, check the fabric, delivery costs, and arrival estimate before ordering. A gorgeous pair of PJs loses some of its charm if it arrives after the Santa photo.
These are more expensive at $42 (but at the time of posting this they had click frenzy with 50% off)
Kmart Toy Story for a little family nostalgia
If you're after novelty Christmas PJs, the Kmart Toy Story range is worth a look. The character theme speaks to my love of the 90s, and I always appreciate it when the dad's set gets to be fun too.
The option pictured is a shorts set, so long-pants lovers should check the wider range before ordering. Make sure the matching print is available in every size you need; coordinating the whole family is the part that requires a little planning.
Price starts at $16
What to check before buying matching Christmas PJs
Sizes and cuts for everyone taking part, including the dog if you're going all in.
Fabric, sleeve length and pants or shorts for the weather where you will wear them.
The total family cost, including delivery, rather than the starting price of one item.
Delivery dates and return conditions, especially if you need them for a booked Santa photo.
Already have the PJs sorted? You can move on to the little presents with my Christmas stocking filler method. Or, if your Christmas catch-up needs an activity, try a Christmas doormat painting night. Yes, I will happily turn almost anything into a festive tradition.
