Overnight Travel Made Easy

Did you wake up in your own bed this morning? If not, you’re like many of us who end up traveling for the holidays and spending the night on spare beds, couches or floors. Doing this with kids in tow can be even more challenging. Though my youngest is still in a crib and can overnight easily in a pack-n-play, my 2.5 yr old is in a twin bed at home and our travels don’t always take us to somewhere with an extra bed. So I was thrilled to come across the Aerobed for Kids. Aerobed makes a number of great blow-up mattresses and accessories, but their kid mattress is the perfect addition for any family that travels often.
The Aerobed for Kids includes a 50″ x 25″ mattress, electric pump, plush fleece mattress cover, patch kit and storage/travel bag. The pump was small and relatively quiet, pumping up the mattress in about a minute. (If you’re looking to use the mattress for camping or other outlet-less places, you might want to consider the rechargeable battery-powered pump). The fleece mattress cover was super soft and came in handy when we forgot to pack my son’s sleeping bag and had to use it as a bottom sheet. Though perfect for toddlers with the 4″ bumper that surrounds the mattress, with its ability to hold up to 150 lbs, I know the mattress will last us for many years to come. Pack-up was just as easy with a quick deflate and an easy fit into the storage bag. And with the entire product weighing in at less than 6 lbs, the Aerobed is easy enough to take anywhere.
For the holidays or travels year-round, the Aerobed is a perfect post-pack-n-play sleep solution for your little – and not so little – ones. Though your packages may already be open, enjoy another holiday treat from Aerobed and get free shipping until January 19th, 2009 when you use the code “MWSFREESHIP” at checkout. Happy holidays!
