Think your baby’s outgrowing their nursery? If they’re attempting to climb over the crib rails, physically outgrowing the length of their crib mattress, or showing signs of potty training readiness, perhaps it’s time to turn their space into a proper child’s bedroom. Most toddlers between the ages of 2.5 and 3.5 are ready to transition to a kids’ bedroom, and some of them will actively ask for one as they feel that they’re ready for this major milestone.
