How to choose a baby crib

1. Material: At present, the main materials for cribs on the market are: metal (mainly iron), plastic and wood. Although the metal material is the strongest, its texture is poor, cold and too hard, not suitable for babies. Plastic is easy to deform, so wood is the best choice, which is strong and not too hard.

2. Size: The size of the high and low bed can be determined according to the size of the room, and it is best to adjust the height. The bed surface should be 65-75 cm above the ground. Although it is higher, it is convenient to take care of, but it is not safe.

3. Safety: There should be railings around the small bed, which can be pulled up and down, and there are bolts beside it. The distance between the railings of the bed is about 11 cm. Too wide may cause the baby to slide down the gap of the railings, and too narrow to cause inconvenience to nursing operations. The height of the railing should be 50 cm higher than the mattress. If it is too low, once the baby learns to hold the railing to stand, there is a danger of turning over the railing at any time; if it is too high, the mother will feel very tired when picking up or putting down the child; The four corners of the bed should be round and smooth, so as to avoid the sharp edges and corners hanging on the baby’s clothing and causing harm to the baby; babies like to bite the railings with their mouths, and some small beds will be painted with bright colors. Once the lead in the paint exceeds the standard, the baby Lead poisoning may occur.
