What to when Traveling and you Child won't Sleep in the Pack-N-Play.

This post does contain affiliated links. That just means the price is the same no matter what and that I make a small commission if you purchase.

Let me set-up the scenario...During the 4th of July holiday my son was perfectly content on sleeping in his pack-n-play (our's looks like this one Graco Pack 'n Play Playard with Reversible Napper and Changer, Go Green) at my parents' house. The Labor Day weekend comes along and we are going to paint his room and put his pack-n-play in our room for his nap. That just doesn't happen and on top of that after we put the pack-n-play away, but it was still on the floor; he hits it and says bad thing.

So now we are struggling to figure out what to do for the upcoming holidays at Grandparents' houses now that he won't sleep in his pack-n-play. So I do some researching and find Intex Kidz Travel Bed with Hand Pump. This toddler bed is great the mattress comes out of the outer edge and a crib sheet fits it (nice because you don't have to buy anything special for it). Crib Sheets, 2 Pack Fitted Soft Jersey Cotton Sheet, Bedding with Unisex Clouds and Chevron Custom Design, Fits Standard Mattress for Babies and Toddlers Once we got the toddler bed we did a test run in his room. Goes great! It ended up working out great during the holidays. The only problem we had was actually getting him to want to go to bed or nap, but we have that problem all the time.

I hope this helps someone else.
