Hello,

Whenever we camp my 5 year old son has a habit of rolling off his airbed in his sleep and then howling until someone puts him back! Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to stop him falling off his airbed or alternative sleeping arrangements?

Thanks, Neil

put less air into the airbed, his weight should cause it to dip and possibly make it harder for him to roll out

Thank you all for the suggestions.

Thanks, Neil

Hi Stroge,

You could always splash out on this, from outdoormegastore:

Hi-Gear Double Height Electric Pump a Bed (AB846) A new mammoth sized flocked pump a bed (great for al fresco orgies) with internal electric pump (requires 4 x D-cell alkaline batteries), which will inflate/deflate the bed in minutes. The bed is double thickness and is reversible - one side has elevated walls (for the kids) and the other is flat (for adults). The bed is made of heavy duty PVC with soft flock top. Inflated dimensions are 198 x 152 x 44 cm. RRP: £79.99 Climb on!  Megastore Price:  £59.99 (€87.46)

Hi: My grandsun is a restless sleeper so we dont inflate airbed to much also rolled upo towels or fleece blanket are great to put either side.

Good luck

Thank you for all of your excellent suggestions.

Thanks, Neil

Didn't someone point out a place selling bungees cheap recently??

Obviously he might not be keen to be strapped to an airbed by a couple of bungees...but... you could sell the idea as some sort of "bed seat-belt"...

I shall experiment on my 5 yr old and keep you informed
