Your child will decide whether they are happy to jump into their new bed or fight the transition. It is important to stay firm and consistent with your rules. You will quickly see that the change is a daily occurrence, not a one-off.

This is a great opportunity to teach your child life lessons and help them understand the concept of growth. It will make it easier for them to reach their next milestones.
