Purchased for my 7 year old, it's been a huge hit.  He's been wearing it constantly.  Beautiful dark blue and came with bonus slipper socks to match, it's a must have.  He's worn it as a robe to walk around in, and 'backward' to wrap up in while playing video games.  Soft, thin, fleece material, just like the adult ones.  This is pretty good sized for a child, which is good, he will get allot of use out of it.  We have an adult snugglie, and as thin as the fleece is, it's very warm.  I would buy another one of these as a gift.
