In Years gone by moving a toddler from crib to bed could be a traumatic experience for both parent and child. Moving from the safe, small and closed confines of a crib into a big twin bed was often too much for the child. Then came toddler beds that made the transition a bit easier since it allowed the toddler to stay in a bed that was much the same size as a crib. Parents today however envy their children as the next big thing in beds are something we never had as little ones, the character beds that feature everything from princesses to a Lightning McQueen bed for our little ones.

It can be much easier to settle a toddler in a bed that features one of their favorite cartoon characters, this can be an exciting experience that they look forward to not to mention the fact that these adorable little beds can feel just a bit more like the safety of a crib than a full size twin bed will. This is because the bed is slightly recessed into the frame as well as being low to the ground, so they will not be afraid of falling out of bed in the middle of the night.

Race care beds are among some of the more popular toddler’s beds for boys, with the Lightning McQueen bed being one of the best selling beds in the last couple of years. Everyone will remember the hot little sportster Lightning McQueen in the hit movie Cars. Little boys love him for the sporty little car that he is and moms love him for the lessons he teaches their young boys.

This toddler bed is a bright red with a flashy yellow lightning bolt down its side and the number 95 proudly displayed. The bed fits a crib sized mattress which is not included with the bed, and like many toddler beds the mattress is inset in the bed to provide a feeling of safety and comfort for your toddler. You will also need to purchase a sheet of plywood 29” x 51” x ¾ “   to use as a support for the crib mattress.

If you are looking for a really cool bed to wow your son and send him off to sleep dreaming of making laps around the track in his Lightning McQueen bed then this bed is for you. Your toddler will never look back when it is time to transition out of the crib and into his adorable car bed.
