kinda dumb question:toddler/twin bed

[madaboutMickey]

Now I'm seeing all these comforter sets for toddler beds. Is there really a difference in size? or is this a style thing. Something that would be more interest to a toddler's age. I'm looking for a set for my GD's birthday but Idon't want to buy something that won't fit a twin bed. I'm feeling old. lol

Keep using crib sheets and get a smaller size blanket/throw and regular size pillow case. Toddler bed sets are far overpriced to me seeing as my kids went from toddler bed to twin bed in a matter of months...

Yep, big difference in size. A toddler bed is designed to use a crib mattress. As a general rule they are closer to the ground and smaller, acting as a transition between a crib and an adult sized bed. HTH.

Twin size is much bigger than a toddler bed.

IMO, if a child is too big for a crib, than he/she is too big for a toddler bed.
We never wasted our money on one....they would only be in it for a short while before moving on to a twin bed.

Toddler sheets will definitely be to small for a twin bed. You need to find something for a twin, which granted there aren't quite as many cute ones, but a toddler bed is about the equivalent size wise to a crib.

Thanks everyone. The info really helped. She has a twin bed but is not using it yet. I'm trying to find a comforter set with Mickey but they are all toddler sets. I guess I'll have to go back on-line and look some more.
