Baby's first bed as told by Lotus

At Olive Kids we talk a lot about how important the transition is from the crib to a child's first big kids bed. Everyone has a different approach, some parent move their kids into a toddler bed and then into a larger size bed. Believe it of not a large number of kids skip the toddler/twin bed and go right to the larger size. At Olive Kids we wanted to be sure that we had all options for parents and that's why we carry all of our designs in toddler, twin, full and queen.

Lotus from a "sacasticmom" was in this situation and she wrote about it on her blog!

Olive Kids! Do You?
Towards the end of last year, John and I decided that it was time to move Braden from his crib to a toddler bed. Is it just me or is the room spinning a bit? Why is my chest so tight? Oh yeah, that’s that thing that happens when I’m reminded of HOW MUCH MY KID IS GROWING UP. *sniff* We found the perfect little bed.

We really wanted to graduate him from the nursery sheets he was using too, and found some absolutely wonderful toddler bedsets at Olive Kids. In fact, Olive Kids carries all kinds of colorful and fun kids designs for all purposes. Many things can be personalized, and they are all incredibly cute and fun. I decided to let John make the final decision on the bedset design (and if you know anything about my control issues, you will know this is a big deal) and even though I really wanted the Wild Animals Set but John chose Trains, Planes and Trucks


And you know what? He CHOSE WELL. Braden loves it - he exclaims over the “Pwanes!” and “Twucks!” and “Twains!” And it is really adorable.

It’s made with bright, happy colors, and the material seems strong, yet nice and comfy. And he adjusted to his new bed, pillow, and bedset MUCH faster than I wanted him to had expected him to. I blame credit the soft sheets and warm, cuddly comforter.

Thanks Lotus and we so very happy that your son loves his new bedding from Olive Kids!
