A: This travel crib includes a mattress cover, but doesn’t come with sheets. You’ll need to buy those separately, which you can do right here! http://www.giggle.com/p/24339/Travel-Crib-Fitted-Sheet.aspx?s=1&keyword=bjorn

A: At giggle, we offer a best of/edited assortment. In other words, we carry a limited number of options in any category to help make choices less overwhelming for our parents!

While "Pack 'n Play" is a specific term for Graco playards, people often use it in reference to travel cribs, which are similar in style. That being said, there are tons of options out there! Pack 'n Plays are awesome, but we love the Baby Bjorn Travel Crib Light as a travel crib/playard option for the following reasons:

1) Lightweight (just 11lbs) and easy for anybody to fold and carry (one-step set-up, and comes with a carrying case).
2) Stable design keeps the crib firmly on the floor so you don’t have to worry about tipping.
3) Soft fabric-covered edges make it cozy for your child, and all fabric parts have been approved through the Oeko-Tex Standard 100.
4) Insulated, formaldahyde-free mattress with a water-repellent, breathable mattress cover for the most comfortable, healthy sleep for baby (100% organic cotton fitted sheets sold separately: http://www.giggle.com/p/24339/Baby-Bjorn-Travel-Crib-Fitted-Sheet.aspx).

Hope that helps understand why the Travel Crib Light is our "best of" pick for a playard!

A: Absolutely! The Travel Crib Light is approved by the ASTM for use as a permanent crib, so you can use it as long as you need until you move to a full size crib. It has a thick, breathable foam mattress which will be perfect for a newborn.

Unfortunately, there is no attachment for a bassinet. Be sure to also check out the Mini Co-Sleeper Bassinet (http://www.giggle.com/p/27666/c/558/cl/591/Mini-Co-Sleeper-Bassinet.aspx?s=2&keyword=591). This serves as a bassinet that attaches to your bed for easy access to baby, and can also convert to a changing table or playpen during the day.

A: Wow, you’ve clearly done your research, because you’ve described them both perfectly! It’s kind of a tradeoff: parents adore the Peapod when they’re on the road because it’s so lightweight and portable. But if you think you’ll use the Baby Bjorn a lot at home as a playpen, and don’t mind the extra weight when you do travel, then you’ll get a ton of use out of it. You don’t really need to buy both, but if you decide on the Baby Bjorn, the Peapod is inexpensive enough that you could always add it into the mix later if you find you’ll be traveling more than you thought. Good luck with your decision. Hope this helps!

A: The Baby Bjorn Travel Crib isn’t JPMA certified but we love and trust all products manufactured by Baby Bjorn. I see what you mean about the solid sides going up high on the crib, but it’s a made of a very breathable cotton/poly blend that you can actually see through in the light. The suffocation risk with this crib is extremely low and highly unlikely.

A: This great, lightweight travel crib is easy to assemble and take down making it just the right tool for both a crib and convenient play area at home and on the road.

A: Yes, and we love this sheet since it's 100% organic cotton!
Check out the Baby Bjorn Travel Crib Light Fitted Sheet (http://www.giggle.com/p/24339/Baby-Bjorn-Travel-Crib-Light-Fitted-Sheet-.aspx) for more details.

A: The dimensions of the crib unfolded are 44.5" l x 31" w x 24"h.
The dimensions inside the crib are 41" l x 23" w x 24"h.

It's compact enough for easy portability, but large enough to accomodate a baby up to 3 years!

A: There is no actual weight limitation for the Travel Crib, as it's recommended to be used up to 3 years old. Rest assure your toddler willl be perfectly safe, because the stable design keeps the Crib firmly on the floor so you don't have to worry about tipping.

We adore the Travel Crib Light for its functionality, great value and reliable quality! It makes the perfect travel companion weighing in at ONLY 11 lbs!
