Choosing the right bedding for my child based on their age
Choosing the first bedding set for your child is no easy task. You probably have a lot of questions about bedding for your toddler: When should you make the transition to a duvet cover ? What size and material should you choose for your child's first bedding set ? In this article, we will give you some details on the use of the duvet cover that will help you make the right choice!
Junior bedding: what if we switched to duvet covers?
Moving to a convertible bed with a big bed set is an important step in your child's life that generally occurs from the age of 2. To avoid rushing them and to make sure they are ready, we advise you to take it step by step. First, change the bed linen in their cot so that they get used to their new sheets. Then, you can change the baby bed while keeping the same bed set. Discuss it with your child to make sure they are ready for this step! Also, to sleep in a big bed, your little one must be able to climb into their bed alone.
What material should you choose for your child's bed linen?
First of all, remember to adapt the sheet and duvet according to the season and the temperature of your child's room. Choose natural fibers and not synthetic ones. We recommend that you opt for organic cotton : soft, strong and easy to care for. Make sure that the set you choose is Oeko-Tex certified to guarantee the absence of harmful products for your baby.
What size bed linen is suitable for a child's bed?
When it comes to the size of the bedding set, adapt it according to the age of your child and the dimensions of their bed. Size is an important criterion when you have to make your choice. A sheet that is too big will overflow the bed and could become dangerous for the youngest. While a duvet that is too small will not perfectly cover your child who risks being cold during the night.
Small baby bed 60 x 120 cm or convertible bed 70 x 140 cm:
From the age of 2 , you can choose traditional bed linen. You have two choices; if you have opted for a small 60 x 120 cm baby bed, we advise you to choose a set with its 60 x 120 cm fitted sheet accompanied by a 100 x 140 cm duvet. If you have chosen to put your toddler in a so-called "evolving" bedof 70 x 140 cm that will grow with him, choose a fitted sheet of the same size as your mattress and select a pretty 100 x 140 cm duvet.
Towards a large junior bed 90 x 190 cm:
Depending on how your little one develops, you can then move them to a 90 x 190 cm big bed and adapt their bedding with a 90 x 190 cm fitted sheet and a 140 x 200 cm duvet cover.
