Matching the Comfort Requirements of Your Toddler While Converting Baby Cribs into Toddler Beds

Unlike the adults who grow till a certain age limit, children grow quite consistently. Baby growing into a toddler and toddler growing into a boy or girl is a period of transition that parents should handle with care and caution. To match the comfort level of the toddlers while not alienating them from their known environment it may be necessary converting baby cribs into toddler beds.

Considerations in Conversion

A few considerations would be important while converting the baby cribs into toddler beds.

•  Movement from crib to toddler bed could be an uneasy transaction for both parent as well as the child.

•  Either when the child reaches the height of 36″ or its chest levels with the railing of the cribs, it would be appropriate time to move the toddler to bed from the crib.

•  Usually the conversion becomes necessary when the baby reaches the age of 18 months to 42 months.

When the Toddler is Ready for Conversion

It is important determining the exact time when the toddler becomes ready for the conversion. When the child that is potty trained and require using bathroom in the night or when the toddler is trying to climb from the crib, it would be the ripe time moving the toddler to bed from the crib. Also the moving of toddler to his or her own bed would be appropriate while little changes are taking place around. It could be very useful discussing the change with the child so that he or she can really appreciate the necessity.

Precautions on Conversion

It is required taking certain precautions while converting the cribs into toddler bed. Installation of child safety gets or safe yard panes would be a couple of steps in the right direction. Another great way would be involving the toddler in the conversion process since picking up own bed is always one of the exciting prospects for the child.

In any case, safety of the child would be the primary concern for parents in any conversion. The child will be moving from the comparatively safe environment of cribs to the open arena of the bed and he or she may not be acquainted with the safety measures while sleeping on the open bed.

Bed railings at small heights would be a feasible solution for the problem.
