Portable Baby Cribs – For Babies on the Go!

Portable baby cribs are a great addition to a baby’s supplies, especially if grandma and grandma live far enough away that frequent weekend trips will be part of that first wonderful year. Portable cribs are not only transportable, they are easy to use and can fold away and be stowed in a minimal amount of space. Investing in a portable crib is relatively inexpensive at around $100.

Travel cribs come in different styles

A small portable baby crib can look similar to a playard, but will be smaller. It is usually rectangular with a firm, solid base that has a thick foam lining in the bottom that’s covered in a wipe-clean vinyl or treated cotton blend for easy clean-up. It can fold up and slip into a carrying case for compact storage and manageable transport. The Graco Travel Lite Crib is an excellent one.

Larger portable cribs look much like a regular crib, but on a smaller scale. This kind of portable crib may be wood or metal, but can be easily disassembled and folded flat for traveling. These portable baby cribs can also be converted with one hand to a changing table, making them versatile. A wooden or metal portable crib is a great idea for relatives who frequently have grandchildren visiting to keep on hand.

Portable cribs save space and money

A travel crib is a low cost way to provide a place for baby to sleep when on vacation or simply when napping in the front yard. Portable cribs are also handy for families with multi-story houses who don’t have a bassinet and want a snug place for the baby to nap downstairs that’s safe, low cost and compact.

Since todays designer babies bags just don’t look like what they are used for.
