Executive summary about toddler bed by Theresa Alvarez
The transition from crib to bed can be stressful for both you and your toddler. Try to ease that transition by following these great tips.
1. Use the same bedding that was in your child's crib when possible. Although the sheets will not fit, try using the same blankets, comforters, and pillows.
2. Look for a bed in which safety bed rails can be attached. You can purchase toddler bed rails for almost all types of toddler beds, and there are a wide variety of safety bed rails available for all sized adult beds.
3. Choose a toddler bed that is close to the ground.
4. If you are planning on traveling close to the time of the transition, consider buying portable bed rails for your toddler to maintain consistency in your approach. You can purchase toddler travel beds if a full size bed will not be available.
5. Make sure you position the bed in a manner that will prevent your little one from getting trapped between the bed and the wall. If you do decide to put the bed against the wall, consider using safety bed rails on both sides of the bed anyway.
6. Some parents find it easier to transition their child into a bed if they set up the bed a few weeks before the transition and encourage their child to play in the bed during the day.
7. Consider buying themed toddler beds. Toddlers tend to be much more willing to sleep in a bed with their favorite character.
8. Initially consider purchasing crib rails if your crib is convertible. Letting your little one sleep in a crib for a few more weeks may make the transition easier once you decide to move him to a bed.
