How do I convert my crib?

Ready to convert your crib? You’ll generally just need a conversion kit.  All conversion kits include a manual for easy installation.

For the toddler stage, you'll remove one side of the crib, attach the rail, and then lower the mattress to it's lowest setting.  Some cribs include conversion kits, while others require you to purchase them separately -- check your manual for details.  

To convert your crib to a full-size (or to convert your mini crib to a twin-size bed if applicable), you will use the back and front panels as the headboard and footboard -- check your manual for details.
