This might be the weirdest damn thing I’ve ever read on dcum. And that’s saying a lot.

A five year old in a crib is crazy.

My kids both liked transitioning to a loft bed where the bottom bunk slides in perpendicular to the top one. When in the bottom bed, on one side there was a closed wall (desk on the outside) and the other side was a bookcase. Very nest-like, darkish and 'cool'. I just kept the ladder off until they were older, but not a worry at 5.
I think the crib is okay but I would think walking through this developmental stage is better. A canopy might be nice for her too.

Ikea has a twin bed with tent- it's essentially the same idea of having an enclosed-cocoon- space.

Uh, take the crib apart and give it away. Crib's gone. Now you can try the toddler bed, the floor with a sleeping bag, the crib mattress on the floor, the new twin bed, or literally any other option.
Take away the crib and it won't be an option. Duh.

If you had a child this old who still loved her crib, how did you wean them off of it? I got some sheets she is excited to use but I still anticipate a lot of angst when we try to remove the crib. This seems so abnormal to me. What do opi do?
Does she still nurse and wear diapers? Absolutely ridiculous for you to allow this

Cant you put up bed rails to recreate a "safe" environment?
How is she getting out? Does she have to call for you everytime she needs to pee at night or when shes awake on the morning?

There's no shame at all in letting older kids sleep in a crib (as long as they want to, of course). Just make sure they wear a pull-up in case they need to go to the bathroom at night.

How safe is it for a 5 year old to be climbing out of her crib every day, or do you go get her every morning?
