Toddler Bed ~ When?

when is the right time to move your toddler to a big kid bed?

There's no hard and fast rule when it comes to moving a toddler to a "big kid" bed. It really depends on a few factors.

It's best not to move your toddler before they are ready.

Generally kids will be ready to make the move between the ages of 1 1/2 to 3 1/2.

It's suggested to wait until closer to 3 to move a toddler, but if they become too big, or too active for their crib you will have to move them.

The other reason you will need to make the transition is if they are potty trained, they will need to be able to get out of bed to use the toilet during the night.

"We bought this bed for my son who is now 12 and we just put my 2 year old in it. He is the 4th child to use it and it is still in excellent condition. I highly recommend this to any parent who isn't sure about putting your child into a bed yet. We found they can't wait to go to bed and stay in it."

Keeping Your Toddler In the Bed

won't he fall out?

It may be an inevitability that your toddler falls out of their toddler bed at least once. However, it will only take once or twice for them to quickly understand where the edge of the bed is.

You can decrease the chance of this happening by using toddler bed rails. You can usually find them in fun colors that will match your toddler bed.

This adorable princess toddler bed comes equipped with a canopy so she can sleep just like Jasmine!

Two detachable bed rails are also included. It is easy to assemble and you can use a regular crib mattress.

Toddler Bed Sheets

continue the theme with matching sheets

Once you have chosen a toddler bed you will have to get sheets to fit. Unless your toddler bed takes a regular crib mattress the sheets you have on hand will most likely not fit.

Although it's just one more expense it can be one more way to make the transition from crib to big kid bed just a little easier.

Allow you child to choose the sheets they would like on their bed. Who's their favorite TV or movie character? What's their favorite color?

Giving kids control over these small choices gives them a great sense of power over their own lives. This is especially important when they can feel totally out of control with the move.

"I had absolutely no trouble purchasing this bed. I bought it on a Tuesday and it was delivered on a Friday. Great bed, my son loves it! I didn't realize quite how low to the ground the bed would be - but it is for a little person, so no worries! It is actually even cuter in person than in the picture. I am overall very happy with the purchase."

Convertible Cribs ~ The Perfect Toddler Bed

If you were lucky enough to choose one of the many convertible cribs that are now on the market you are in luck. You don't even have to shop for a toddler bed. Convertible cribs are like 4 beds in one. They are a crib, that changes into a toddler bed, which changes into a day bed, which can then be converted into a full size bed.

They may be more of an upfront expense when you are shopping for your crib, but if you think over the long haul they are well worth the price. Make sure you buy a brand that will be around for the long haul. You will need to get additional kits to convert the crib into the toddler bed and into the full size bed. You want to know you will be able to get these kits when the time comes.
