[quote=Anonymous]Skip the air mattress and just use a sleeping bag and light camping pad underneath. Egg crate is fine. Unless the ground is very rocky or full of roots, you should be fine. Particularly if you spend a lot of time out of doors or running around first, your kid should sleep just as well on the ground as on an inflatable thing. I guess I am a purist but I can't imagine using one for camping. The whole point is to be more connected to nature, including the ground. It's one thing if you physically can't do it (like my 85-year-old grandparents who finally starting using an inflatable mattress when they camp, because they can't push off the ground). But a 3-year-old shouldn't have any trouble. It might even be more fun for him. You can't roll very far on an inflatable mattress, because you'll fall off. Much better rolling around on the ground![/quote]
