A MUM has shown how she managed to turn her one of her kids' cots into a toddler bed in just 60 seconds. <\/p>\n
Paula explained that her daughter was too big for the cot, so they decided to take action.<\/p>\n

\n<\/p>\n
"We turned this IKEA crib into a toddler bed in 60 seconds," she began the TikTok video.<\/p>\n
"We simply cut five of the railings off and that's it!"<\/p>\n
Doing that meant that her daughter was able to use the newly-widened entry point to get both in and out of her bed. <\/p>\n
And her delight at the transformation was clear to see, as she grinned and said: "I love it mum!"<\/p>\n
Paula added that they'd decided to try out the hack because they don't have time to mess around with flat pack furniture. <\/p>\n "Because WHO has time to disassemble and reasseble ikea furniture!" she wrote in the caption. <\/p>\n "The main reason we chose to remove a few rails was to prevent our toddlers from falling out of bed."<\/p>\n People weighed in on the makeover in the comments section, with one writing: "I have the same crib for both my boys and we love it but I thought the idea of moving him to a toddler bed is him having more space to sleep."<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n "That can be part of it, but the main idea is that they can get into and out of bed themselves," another added. <\/p>\n "We went from crib to double bed ! way easier to lay with them," someone else said. <\/p>\n To which Paula replied: "We tried! She didn\u2019t like it and kept requesting for her crib back\u2026or else it was our bed!"<\/p>\n "It\u2019s a great idea! Gives a child some independence (if their room is safe)," another wrote. <\/p>\n "You can also just take out the front side. That's what we did," someone else suggested. <\/p>\n As Paula responded: "We didn\u2019t want our little one falling off the fully open side so opted for this instead."<\/p>\n "Actually so smart," another added. <\/p>\n "Clever," someone else praised. <\/p>\n While another commented: "OMG that's genius!"<\/p>\n<\/picture>Epic fail <\/span><\/p>\n
