Soft organic cotton with elastic all the way around that stays put on the standard crib mattress most toddler beds use.
Not for: Kids on twin or larger beds, since it only fits crib and toddler mattresses.
What the AI looks for in Kids' Fitted Bed Sheets
- Size
- Crib or toddler size is about 28 x 52 in. Twin is 38–39 x 75 in. A fitted sheet only works on the exact mattress size it was made for.
- Full-perimeter elastic
- Elastic should run all the way around the sheet, not just at the corners. Corner-only elastic lets the sheet come loose, which is also a safety issue on cribs.
- Pocket depth
- The pocket must cover the mattress plus the waterproof protector. Kids' mattresses almost always have a protector on them, which adds thickness.
- Fabric
- Breathable cotton jersey or percale, with OEKO-TEX or GOTS certification if possible. Small children have sensitive skin and tend to overheat.
Brands that matter
- Burt's Bees Baby: Organic cotton fitted crib and toddler sheets.
- American Baby Company: Basic cotton fitted crib sheets.
What to avoid
- Loose or oversized fitted sheets on crib mattresses.
