Don’t Lose Sleep Over Transitioning to a Toddler Bed — Follow These Expert-Approved Tips

De La Torre recommends letting your child choose what color sheets they like and what stuffed animal they want to sleep with, as well as asking them what would make them more comfortable in the new bed. "If you can, shop with them for fun bed objects, new room decorations, a cool OK-to-Wake clock, and more," she added. "Just a little something that can make the transitions exciting for them!"
