Baby Bed Rails

Baby bed rails are often pre-assembled into toddler beds, but you can easily purchase one for the bed afterwards. Portable bed rails make it easy to make beds more safer for toddlers while traveling.

The purpose of the bed rail is to increase toddler's bed safety and provide for a safe transition from a crib to bed. A bed rail will usually make parents more at ease about putting their toddler into a bed from a crib environment.

For many toddler beds, the bed rails are an optional accessory, so if your baby's bed doesn't have them, you can ask the retailer or manufacturer of the bed for rails to go with the bed.

If there is no such option, you can buy one of the removable, portable soft bed rails. These baby bed rails usually have metal arms that slip under the mattress for quick and easy installation and stability. Then, the bed rail is locked in place for sleeping and lowered when necessary.

Many of the rails have comforting character theme, such as the popular Elmo bed rails do. This is nice if you're building a central theme on the baby room around different characters.
