I bought some fleece fabric and today I started my project. On the edge of the fabric it says "do not use for childrens sleepwear". Why?
I would appreciate any info I can get.

Perhaps the type of fleece you have has not been treated with a Flame Retardant that is required to be used in children's sleepwear. For more information on children's sleepwear requirements:

Like Cheryl said, it probably has to do with flame retardancy - but I know that if you make the pajamas snug then there shouldn't be any risk in having them catch on fire, too. Here's an article about that from the US Consumer Product Safety Commission: http://www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/prerel/prhtml00/00129.html
