Crib to Bed

mabdoo

Ok, so our little one can climb out of hte crib. So we tried putting her mattress on the floor for now but she has spent the better part of an hour running around her room and tearing it apart I am sure. We got out everything that could harm her. Any suggestions?
 
how old's your babe?

try the silent return to bed/broken record. pick her up and put her back into bed doing 1 of 2 things

1 - say nothing at all.
2 - only say - "its time for night-nght" or whatever you call it.

shes seeking attention and even negative attn is still attn.
it may take 90 times in a 60-min span but if you are CONSISTENT she will know what is expected of her

good luck! that stage is not easy!!!:):confused:
