An elongated sleeping bag is proportioned to resemble a character when it is in an elongated, flat state on a relatively flat surface. An element resembling the head of a character is attached to the sleeping bag facing in the same direction as the front panel of the sleeping bag. The head element contains a pouch into which the sleeping bag can be stuffed so as to form a base or floor on which the head can stand for storage or display. Shoulder straps are attached to the head to permit carrying of the entire assembly as a backpack when the sleeping bag is stored within the pouch. Accessories can likewise be attached to the head. The combined sleeping bag, character display item, and backpack is primarily intended for use by children but could be fabricated for uses ranging from dolls to adults.
