sleeping on the floor

[jobell]

I have a two year old who wont sleep in his bed,when its bedtime he goes into his room and lies on the floor, tonight i made up his ready bed and he went and got in it but why wont he sleep in his bed?

Who knows what two year olds are thinking? DD1 kept coming out of bed to lie on spare bit of hall carpet we'd put down for a rug in her room. She'd bring her teddies down on the rug with her. Eventually we got the idea/gave in, and left duvet down there.

I'd leave him be. Pretend he's camping if that makes it easier for you. He'll go back to his bed when he's ready.

I remember very well my nephew had that problem and his parents finally figured out that he was too hot in his bed. Does he sleep with a pillow? Maybe put a mattress on the floor and a thin blanket?

I found my DS asleep a few times on the landing during the summer, he just got up during the night and brought all his blanket/pillow/teddies and just slept there on the floor. I still don't know why

I was just about to say what Blueberry said. I actually used to sleep on the floor when I was smaller, as it was cooler - but couldn't convey that to my parents at the time!
