Crib lib
Article Abstract:
Young children should sleep in cribs as long as they're happy in them. When they discover how to escape, a gentle transition to a bed includes use of a safety gate and a renewed commitment to household 'childproofing.' The bed should be pushed up into a corner of the room to prevent falling off.
