This is less of an update and more of a complete redo of my old toddler bed. The big change is that this operates more like a regular bed, just toddler sized. Honestly, kind of a nightmare and if I could go back in time and not have the idea to do this, I would but anyway, here it is. 😭 Works pretty much like a regular bed, they can sleep and take naps. If they have a stuffed animal, they will sleep with it. Toddlers can jump on the bed and other Sims (Teen+) can read them to sleep.
I would recommend removing the old toddler bed even though this is a separate file but I consider that version now obsolete and it is archived. The localization files from that bed have been added to this one as well so it comes with partial French, Brazilian Portuguese and Korean translations.
In addition to that I've also included a custom dresser that toddlers can use to change clothes on their own. So now my dream of fully independent toddlers that no longer need my attention is complete! *insert evil laugh here*
Requirements: None I believe, everything should be BGC but some audio from Generations but if you don't have that, you simply won't hear anything. Built on ver 1.67, should work with 1.69
Credit/Thanks: Blam’s EA Store for the original bed which I just sized down and edited. @leaf-motif for the dresser and mattress which is from her Keller Bedroom set. Thanks to @zemyna for testing and the photos used throughout! She also found some toddler bed frames that are compatible with the mattress (linked below).

Details on features after the cut
Bed features:
Toddlers will use the bed autonomously if they are sleepy
If toddlers have a stuffed animal in their inventory, they will sleep or nap holding it.
Teens+ can use to Time for Bed/Nap interaction to send toddlers to bed but depending on their mood and/or traits, toddlers may put up a fuss about it
Teens+ can read toddlers a bedtime story to put them to sleep. If the toddler has a stuffed animal/toy in their inventory, they will hold it while listening to the story. This will also satisfy the want to read them to sleep. You can only read toddler books to them and it will count towards a book they have read. Reading a toddler to sleep will give them good dreams.
Toddlers can jump on the bed for fun but will get scolded if they are caught jumping on the bed by a Teen+.
There's a chance toddlers will fall if jumping and can hurt themselves. They can tell an adult to remove the buff.
Toddlers might wet the bed if their bladder motive is low while sleeping. This chance increases if they're not potty trained. It may wake them up if they do. If they complain about this to an adult, the adult will be pushed to clean them up. Depending on what you have in your home, it will either push the adult to bathe them in a tub if you have the Toddler Interactions mod or changing table if you have the Store item; or just change their diaper if you have neither.
Toddlers can also wake up from a nightmare if their motives are low or if they are light sleepers and won't be able to go back to sleep. Telling an adult (Teen+) will remove the buff so they can go back to sleep.
Child+ can make an unmade toddler bed or change the sheets if it has been soiled. If soiled, it will spawn a laundry pile if you have a washing machine on the lot.
The set includes 1 bed (pictured in the first image) + 1 mattress (pictured below) on its own. Both are CASTable. Feel free to resize any of your favorite EA or cc beds to make your own! However, as I adjusted these beds for the animations, it's best to clone this bed or mattress as your starting point. Given the small size of the toddler bed, regular-sized end tables are too big and can block routing so if making your own beds with matching end tables, I would suggest sizing down the end tables as well.
Notes:
For whatever reason the mattress presets can't be changed in CASt, only in the catalog when you're selecting it. Not sure why. It's not that important to me to investigate further since you can still change the presets but if someone knows, I'd be curious!
The bed mirroring (being able to flip the animation depending on what side of the bed you are on) is a tricky thing and the bed animation sometimes gets stuck resulting in the bed not animating if you start using one side instead of the previous side you were using. As a workaround, I have the bed stop its animation in these cases. So if the bed was unmade it will look made but it's still considered unmade and will need to be made.
Here is the list of toddler bed frames (example above) sourced by zemyna that are compatible with the mattress. There may be more but these were the ones she tested. We are grateful to sim in a world where @martassimsbook exists:

Hello lovelies!!
Yes this is a kid’s bed, but can be used by toddlers for all intents and purposes!!
The Toddler Super Sleeper
This Kindermade bed has been enhanced for your sims enjoyment! Parents will be pleased with the new price point, as well as other features. This toddler bed now offers a small dose of creativity while tots sleep, relieves sadness and provides way more energy. Your toddler will love the new bedding, and parents will love the neutral frame. Place in your home and enjoy. Guaranteed to let everyone feel well rested by morning. Recolour by Jitterbugxo
Now your toddlers (and kids) can sleep soundly with a level 8 energy motive. This bed also provides level 5 sadness relief and level 1 creativity skill for those imaginative dreamers.
Hey Olomaya! How are you doing? I have been loving the recent mods, thank you so much! I am having an issue with my toddler using the sized down bed (this one I think, OM_AnimalFriends_ToddlerBed) as he was constantly wetting the bed and waking up from it all night, never gaining any sleep. Even when I removed the moodlet and cheated his needs up, he continued to wet the bed and get the moodlets again. He's not potty trained and has no toddler skills, if maybe that plays a role? Just wanted to report that bug and see if anyone else has had that issue or if your able to get a fix out. Thank you!
Hi and thanks for reporting! The repeated bedwetting problem should be fixed now. Toddlers may still wet the bed if their bladder is low (100% will happen if they are not potty trained, 45% chance if they are) but the mod will only check once when they hit that motive threshold and not again. I also reduced the chance of them waking up from wetting the bed to 35% (unless they are neat or light sleepers in which case they will always wake up).
Hey, so I tried using your toddler bed but when I try to use it theres no interactions or anything available and toddlers won't use it autonomously. Am, I doing something wrong or missing something?
Not much to go on with more details from you. Have you tested it with anyone else? Every sim should have the option to assign the bed to the toddler so if you're not seeing that option, then it's an issue where the script isn't loading for the bed. Are you also trying to use it when the toddler is on a different floor than the bed? The options won't come up if they are not on the same floor nor will they be able to use it autonomously. I believe this is the case if you have the Toddler Can Use Stairs mod (or maybe a game feature, someone correct me if I'm wrong).
Update: Hi anon, if you have an MTS account, you can message me there to cut down on the back and forth and so I can get more details.

A Thoughtfully Designed Kids’ Room That Grows with Your Child
Designing a child’s bedroom is more than just picking out cute furniture — it’s about creating a space that supports their growth, independence, and imagination. This beautifully styled kids’ room features solid oak furniture that blends timeless craftsmanship with smart, child-friendly function.
From the charming bear-ear bed frame to the compact nightstand and height-adjustable desk, every piece is built with care and purpose — turning a simple room into a safe, cozy world for your little one to explore, rest, and learn.
Why Solid Oak is a Smart Choice for Kids
Solid oak isn’t just about beauty — it’s about durability and natural safety. Unlike synthetic materials, real oak furniture is free from harmful chemicals and built to last for years (and many growth spurts). It’s strong enough to handle active toddlers, climbing kids, and busy mornings — all while looking effortlessly stylish.
The natural grain and light honey tone bring warmth to the room without overwhelming it. And because oak pairs beautifully with both soft neutrals and playful colors, you can refresh the room's theme as your child grows — without replacing the core furniture.
A Room That’s Ready for Now — and Later
With quality materials, smart design, and a bit of whimsy, a room like this becomes more than just a place to sleep. It becomes a space where your child feels secure, inspired, and at home — every single day.
