Cars junior ready bed from Amazon

After doing some research online, I figured out that one way to get around this was to buy him a junior ready bed and allow him to use it on the weekends to sleep in different rooms.  This way, he could get used to sleeping in different places if we ever went on vacation or took him to someone’s house for a sleepover.

A junior ready bed is basically a sleeping bag with an air mattress on the bottom.  Usually, they come with a pump for the air mattress.  It feels a little better than sleeping on a regular sleeping bag because the air mattress is a bit more comfortable.  Lately, many children have been using junior ready beds for sleepovers instead of the traditional sleeping bag.

The great thing about these ready beds is that they come in so many different styles and characters.  Disney has an entire line including the Disney Cars and Disney Princesses.  They also come with other characters such as Dora the Explorer, Spiderman, and even High School Musical.  So, whatever age your child is, you will find something that fits.  For my little one, I chose the Disney Cars Ready Bed since he loves cars.  He actually hasn’t seen the movie yet since his attention span is so low, but I know he’ll love the movie when I show him.

This past weekend, I let him sleep in his play room for 1 night and he was ecstatic.  We made it sort of a game where he helped me roll out his bed and lay it on the floor.  Then, I read to him, the same way we do every night and then told him it was time for bed.  He was actually fast asleep after a few minutes and slept perfectly well in his junior ready bed all night long.
