Toddler co-sleeping devices?

My husband and I are looking for something that is big enough for a toddler to sleep in while in an adult bed. We're mainly wanting it for traveling so not to lug around a play pen. There's no guarantee she will want to sleep in a play pen either while in a strange hotel room and we think we will all get a better nights rest if she is in the bed with us. I would prefer some sort of a barrier between her and us to put me at ease of rolling over on her. Everything for co-sleeping that I've seen on the market is for infants but we want something for babies 1 year plus.


Answer
Do you roll out of bed? Do you roll over on top of your husband? You're not going to roll on top of her. And even if you managed to get an arm or leg across her, she's plenty big enough by now to move and/or cry and let you know. There's no need for any sort of barrier.

Just get a king-size bed in the hotel room for all 3 of you, or get a room with 2 double/queen beds. One of you could sleep with her in one bed while the other adult sleeps by themvselves, or you two could sleep together with her in the other bed. If you're worried about her falling out of bed, call ahead and ask the hotel if they have any bed rails, or just plan to put pillows around her to help keep her contained.

If she's used to sleeping in a crib, you could request one at the hotel, and just try it out.

We've traveled plenty with my 3 kids (now ages 3, 6, and 7) and have used all sorts of arrangements.
