We decided that the one foot fall was a better alternative than the up over the top of the railing, on to his head fall. It's a cute railing though. I hope it works out for her :)
If you look at the Rail .. you can see it is fabric ... not solid , besides she can climb out the back of the toddler bed.. it is designed to just lessen her desire to want to climb right out of the bed.. and make mom feel better at night. IF she tries to CLIMB over the rail.. it is soft.. won't matter. iT is not on her crib this is for her toddler bed that they will start putting her in as soon as this item arrives in mail.. the crib then will be moved out for the new baby :) arriving in a few weeks. they decided to put her into toddler bed as it seemed it was a matter of time before she climbed out and over the crib which is a mUCH further fall.
Toddler beds are only less than one foot off the ground ......did you have a solid rail ? they usually have a rail that doesn't go the whole length of the bed.. .. your son should have been able to climb out the back.
