I think I saw that someone had a princess canopy bed. I think maybe it was target. I'll check again to be sure. Just some advice, do not waste your money on a toddler bed! Just buy a twin and buy a rail for it. It's really a waste otherwise since they are only in it a year max. Next year you'll be here looking for a good deal on a twin while you're SO is trying to squeeze the toddler bed into the storage shed or attic.

 

Also the bedding never fits right. The crib sets which are supposed to fit are too small and twin sets are too big.

 

I think they had toddler beds in the big toy book, but not on bf. I don't recall what the prices were though.

We never used one for our son.

Just put the mattress on the FLOOR. and used rails. It him used to it. And now that hes three, We progressed it each year. 1-2 years, just the mattress. 2-3 years, he had the mattress and the boxspring. This year we added the frame. And he is tall, but he's never had a problem with it!

We bought one from Walmart for our son, but it was a waste of money. Children grow so fast and like someone else mentioned, a twin bed is a better choice.

 

Yup Im 24 now and have had my bed (twin) since I was about 10 or so. So I have had my bed for 14 years ( :confused: ) is it time to get a new one? By the way Im 6 ft and still can sleep in it fine. :sleeping:

I think its too much transition for little ones. Bassinet to Crib, Crib to toddler bed, toddler bed to twin bed. Plus its pretty damn expensive. JMHO

 

We bought a pack n play with a built in bassinet that we used everywhere even after she grew out of the bassinet, then she went to a crib that converts to a toddler bed and has a built in dresser but we didnt use that long because it was too small and then we bought a twin princess castle bed with a ladder and slide that she'll use for at least 10 more years. The slide is detachable and the canopy can be removed when she outgrows that.

 

My sister went the other route. she bought a bassinet, a girly one i might add, then she bought a crib, then a pink and purple bear toddler bed and then had to buy a twin less than a year later. Then she had a boy so the only thing she is able to reuse is the crib and she couldnt hand it down to me because im 2300 miles away from her.

 

It's tempting to get the toddler beds because they are usually pretty cheap, but i say invest that $100 into a bed he or she will be able to use for years.
