Every mama knows that transitioning your child from a crib to the bed is a significant toddler milestone. It doesn’t always go smoothly, though.
So this one family came up with a genius idea to help their child with this process. What I’m about to show you is pretty clever. Get ready for it, ha, ha!
So let me ask you: how did you get your toddler to sleep in a regular bed?
Was it an easy process? Or did you struggle for a long time? I definitely sympathize with any family going through these growing pains.
Therefore I was pretty thrilled when I stumbled upon this smart idea on TikTok.
A mom of two recently posted a video of a crib her husband custom-built for their toddler, Joey. I’m not going to lie, it’s pretty fantastic.
The bed is basically a transition between a crib and a regular bed.
The bed’s frame was designed to look like a mini house complete with a roof and working gate. Check out little Joey helping his dad put it together here. Aww, that’s so cute.
Get this.
Not only is the bed super functional, but the family finished off the room to make it look like a cozy, woodland theme. Wow! I really love that. Isn’t that such a great and creative idea or what?
I think it’s so cool to see this once bare room become such a haven for this lucky kiddo.
I bet he has a lot of fun playing in this awesome space. After all, it does have a railroad carpet, national park posters, and a stuffed bear hanging on the wall.
Well, I’m not surprised other people on TikTok freaked out over this bed.
The detail on it looks quite professional. I wonder how long it took him to make the whole thing? It was definitely a love project. You can totally see that when you look at the finished product.
Many people wanted to know if the dad would make one for them.
They were pretty much begging for a tutorial on how to make one themselves. I don’t know what he does for a living, but he could just sell these beds, ha, ha!
There was one question, though, that popped up.
Some wondered if it would be hard to change the sheets. So the mom posted a follow-up video in which she shows people exactly how to do it. She simply lifts the mattress to tuck in a fitted sheet. There you go!
Oh my goodness, wouldn’t you love to have a transition bed like this for your child?
I think this is indeed such a brilliant idea. I really do hope this gentleman posts a follow-up video that’s an actual tutorial. I think many fellow parents could benefit from that. Do you agree?
