Tips for choosing

Five tips for young parents when choosing a crib for children:

  1. If you choose a bed made of wood and want to protect the coating and cutting teeth of your baby - use silicone lining. They are non-toxic and perfectly protect furniture.

  2. Take responsibility for the choice of mattress, sometimes it plays an even greater role than the frame. The newborn has a straight back without bends, so the best option would be a hard mattress made from natural materials, such as coconut coir, sisal or with horsehair filling.

  3. Remember that your child will grow up and it will happen pretty soon. If your budget has a certain limit, try to choose not a cradle, but a universal berth.

  4. The bed should not be sharp corners. If you notice this after the purchase, make sure all the bulging parts of the frame are safe for the child. If you act radically, you can simply cut the corners, and as a democratic method - use latex linings or sew fabric covers.

  5. To make your child sleep even better, you can equip his sleeping place with a hanging musical carousel.Funny toys and unobtrusive melodies will help you how to take your baby when he is awake, and put him to sleep when it comes time to sleep.
