you take the front side off, put the mattress in the lowest setting, and use this product Kidco Convertible Crib Bed Rail to make a short side to keep the toddler from rolling out. graco does not make or sell a conversion kit to make it a "toddler bed" that most people assume.Kidco Convertible Crib Bed Rail

Just remove the 4 bolts holding the side on that is closest to the stretcher bar.

Yes it is too small for a toddler bed, you need a regular size crib mattress for a toddler bed.

I just googled and searched the web for it and couldn't find it. To be honest you don't need it. Use sheets/blankets for whatever your child is currently into. I have a 2 year old in this bed now and we just have plain sheets and it's fine. The bed is so cool it's not even needed. I dud find so corvette pillows by googling so there are some out there.

The complete conversion kit for toddler bed came with the crib. The first package was damaged and required exchange which was simple. We love the crib.

Yes, the only thing that doesn't come with this is the conversion to a full bed. But it will have everything you need to go to a toddler bed to a day bed. It takes a while to assemble, but it looks really nice when it's done. Have another person there to help you though.

Just your regular crib mattress will do. It does convert to a toddler day bed but even the toddler beds use the same crib mattress. I just went to check the tag on the mattress and it says 27x51 inches. Enjoy.

...the crib we purchased was a convertible crib which turned into a toddler bed and then a headboard and footboard. The changing table come off and can be used somewhere else.

It comes with the toddler conversion piece but you'll have to buy the piece that converts it to the full size bed.

It comes with the toddler rail when using it as a toddler bed (visible in fourth picture, I think). But, to convert it to a full bed, you will have to purchase a bed frame, and use the front and back of the crib as the headboard and footboard.

I have already returned it AGAIN. They messes up my order. I never opened the bag but I bslieve the picture on the packagdd is correct. If you are looking for the toddler bed set, I may can find out for sure. My daughter I ordered it for ha decided to chsnge the bed to the full size now after all this trouble so the toddler may be for sale if you are interested. NO PETS AND NO SMOKING HOME.Teress

You need a regular bed frame. My daughter says her bed is fabulous. Her roommate bought a bed for 800$ and it is so uncomfortable. She really LOVES this one. Looks like a regular bed when it is assembled. She was also able to put it all together herself.

Has anyone found where to buy the toddler rail to match this crib? Bought crib last January. Love the crib but now need to plan for the toddler rail.

Actually, a toddler bed (as it is known) has three walls to allow the toddler to get out of, or into, the bed on their own. I plan to convert my granddaughter's bed when she's old enough, although I am not altogether satisfied with the manufacturer's suggestion to just remove the front side because it would leave the edge of the mattress and spring exposed. I plan to fabricate a length of PVC lumber (that white stuff), because it's soft and there are no splinters to worry about, to fit over the front just to cover where the edges of the mattress and spring are exposed (so they won't slide around, or where she might get caught), but allow her to easily roll out of the bed over the panel I install. But it won't be for a while, yet.

great comforter. The difference between toddler & twin is huge. A toddler size only fits baby bed mattresses that have been switched to toddler bed. A twin size is much bigger and fits a twin size mattress. hope this helps you

Hey I would contact the seller via email and let them know. The instructions are simple and just one page. The bed is still going strong here so it is worth the effort. They should be able to send you a copy or you can type in product info on google to see if instructions are online. Good luck

you will use the crib mattress for the toddler bed and day bed... then later it will convert to a headboard and foot board for a full size bed.

Hi Molly, what size bed? Child bed might work but using only 4 on a queen or double bed might not be enough support for a piece of furniture that big. I would be concerned with the middle of bed support. These worked well on my couch because the couch is like a love seat and a chair. Hope that helps.
