Anyone use cots?

[5 Little Monkeys]

Awesome, glad to know that they work well!! Do the children get them ready themselves? Right now, the one who uses a mat gets it out herself and it's so funny because she is a mover when she is getting to sleep but somehow never moves off the mat!! I don't think she will fall off the cot but I'll be watching on the monitor to see how she does. I have a spot opening in 2 weeks so if a young one starts my almost 2 year old will have to graduate to a cot as well.

I love playpens but I hate the amount of room they take up!

Monkeys: Yes, for sure they go and get them out of the big Rubbermaid tote they are stored in and set them up themselves. They got really frustrated with the cover that comes to put on top as well, so I don't even use the cover...just have them put their blankets right on the canvas cot.
It was one last shin bang on a pack n play in my bedroom that put me over the edge...haha...I immediately ordered those cots and so happy I did.
