Does anyone have any tips on how I could get my two year old out of his beloved sleeping bags and used to a duvet? I think the time has come to change but as he is such a wriggler, plus he sleeps on his front with his bum in the air, I am worried he will throw the duvet off and get very cold. Plus getting into his bag is such a sleep signal for him, I think this is going to be hard. Thanks for any advice or experience.

Hi laam


There have been a few good threads recently on the topic of moving on from 'baby' beds and bedding, have a look at:-


Toddler Bed to Single Bed


Sleeping bag to duvet


What age..


Hoping one of these will help you, if not some new good advice on this thread.


cheers

Like any new change sometimes it's sometimes best just to go for it! OR you could try doing both for a while (having the duvet covering his bottom half only and when asleep removing it so he doesn't get too hot). You could also try taking him shopping so he can choose his own duvet cover with his favourite character on it. When you get it home make him help? put the duvet inside and make it a fun and exciting occasion! Best of luck...:)
We have recently done the same with our son who has just turned 2 as he started escaping from his grobags. I was dreading it too but I bought him a couple of cot bed duvets with diggers/trains on which he absolutely loves. He also used to move around a lot but since we've introduced the duvet he's stayed put the right way up and seems to like snuggling up. We got him a pillow too and he seems fine with that. He looks a lot comfier and amazingly climbs into his cot because he can't wait to get into bed with his "big boy duvet"! We've kept the sides on his cot bed though as can't face that yet.

    • Hi - I posted a request for some help with a stuck door and possible leaky roof. I had responses from Lukasz at Look_as.com and Pawel at Sublime Builders. I don't see any/many reviews - has anyone used either person?  Could use a recommendation rather then just being contact by the tradespeople... Many Thanks 
    • I'm a bit worried by your sudden involvement on this Forum.  The former Prince Andrew is now Andrew Mountbatten Windsor Mountbatten in an anglicisation of Von Battenburg adopted by that branch of our Royal Family in 1917 due to anti-German sentiment. Another anglicisation could be simply Battenburg as in the checker board cake.  So I surmise that your are Andrew Battenburg, aka Andrew Mountbatten Windsor and that you have infiltrated social media so that the country can put the emphasis on Mandelson rather than yourself.  Bit of a failure. I don't expect an answer from police custody.  
    • We had John fit our PLYKEA kitchen (IKEA cabinets with custom doors) and would happily recommend him and Gabi to anyone. Gabi handled all communication and was brilliant throughout — responsive and happy to answer questions however detailed. John is meticulous, cares about the small details, and was a pleasure to have in the house. The carpentry required for the custom doors was done to a high standard, and he even refinished the plumbing under the sink to sit better with the new cabinets — a small touch that made a real difference. They were happy to return and tie up a few things that couldn't be finished in the time, which we appreciated. No hesitations recommending them.
    • Not sure about that. Rockets seems to have (rightly in my view) identified two key motivating elements in Mcash's defection: anger at his previous (arguably shabby) treatment and a (linked) desire to trash the Labour party, nationally and locally. The defection, timed for maximum damage, combined with the invective and moral exhibitionism of his statement counts as rather more than a "hissy fit".  I would add a third motivation of political ambition: it's not inconceivable that he has his eye on the Dulwich & West Norwood seat which is predicted to go Green.  James Barber was indulging in typical LibDem sleight of hand, claiming that Blair introduced austerity to *councils* before the coalition. This is a kind of sixth form debating point. From 1997-1999 Labour broadly stuck to Tory spending totals, meaning there was limited growth in departmental spending, including local govt grants. However local government funding rose substantially in the Noughties, especially in education and social care. It is a matter of record that real-terms local authority spending increased in the Blair / Brown years overall. So he's manifestly wrong (or only right if the focus is on 1997-1999, which would be a bizarre focus and one he didn't include in his claim) but he wasn't claiming Blair introduced austerity more widely.
