The two most popular reasons to move your toddler out of the crib: potty training and the addition of a new baby. In either case, your little person deserves a reward for dealing with new responsibilities and that means giving him a cool big kid bed. Picky parents will adore these high-end offerings. And while we can’t guarantee your toddler will sleep in until 7 am, we do think he’ll love getting tucked into one of these beds. — Nicole Feliciano |

Argington Petra – $395
We can always tell when designers have kids of their own: they get the details right. One look at this sleek and simple bed tells us Jenny Argie and Andrew Thornton undoubtedly have kids. The Petra (offered with five different finishes) is smartly conceived: note the detachable side rails and the eight-inch height (because little ones tend to fall out of their beds when transitioning from the crib). Made of birch wood (Argington dismisses particle board as inferior), the bed is sturdy enough to support 300 pounds and will undoubtedly last for more than one child.
