Kids grow up so fast. One minute they are tiny little tots you can cradle in your arms then they’re energetic toddlers who need a bed of their own next. If your child outgrows his sleeping space, it’s a good idea to look at toddler beds.
For sure, you cannot let him sleep on a twin mattress right away so these toddler beds are a good idea. They are a good transition from the baby bed. To help moms and dads on the lookout for these big kid beds, we’ve listed down the 7 best toddler beds in the Philippines within P5,000.
Moving from the baby bed to a toddler bed
When should your kid move from his baby crib to a toddler bed? The answer is up to you and him. Usually, it’s between 18 months and 4 years old. But it really depends on your situation. Do you have a child who likes to escape from his crib?
A toddler bed might be the safer choice and it can foster his independence. Is there another baby coming? You may want to use the crib for the younger sibling who’s coming soon. Use this time to transition him to a big kid bed. If you’re potty training, a toddler bed can be helpful, too.
There are different considerations when shopping for a big kid bed. The best toddler beds in the Philippines we’ve included on this list all meet the criteria we’ve listed below. It’s best to do your research before buying one. Ask your toddler what he likes, too. It can be a good experience for both of you. Other things to look for are:
- Design
- Chances are your toddler would prefer a bed that’s emblazoned with his favorite characters. If you’re okay with that, then choosing a bed would be easy. But if you prefer a simpler bed, you can compromise. Tell him you can add pillows with his favorite characters on them.
- Most toddler beds fit your crib mattress so check on that, too. It can save you some money.
- Safety
- Check if there are safety features on the bed. That’s a big plus. The last thing you want is for your child to fall off the bed a few nights into sleeping on his own.
