Both our kids use fitted crib sheets, one on a toddler bed and the other in a crib. They consistently rip as we try to pull them over the last corner of the mattress. I know they are designed to be very tight-fitting for infants, but we have toddlers and need more durable sheets. Can anyone recommend ones that fit a little looser and don't tear?
Thanks!
My pottery barn sheets were very durable too, but they can be pricey. I bought some t-shirt materials sheets from target and they stretch just like a t-shirt would so you could try those.
Pottery Barn Kids is the way to go. Comes in a pack of three and I have had no problems.
I just buy the toddler bed sheets, or whatever they sell at walmart and I have NEVER had any problems,
I wonder if its the mattress ?

I've never had this problem. But have you tried the ones made from jersey material. It's the same stuff as t-shirts. It's a little more stretchy then the cotton ones. I have these on my daughters crib and I love them.
HI T.,
I bought fitted crib sheets from Pottery Barn Kids and have not had any problems with them. They are snug around the mattress, but not so tight that I fear they will rip. My son has slept on them from the time he was born and he's now 2.5 years old. Plus PBK has some darling designs for their bedding.
If we decide to have another child, his sibling will sleep on the same sheets.
Best!
I've noticed that the Gerber knit sheet I have definitely has more give than the Gerber flannel or Waverly regular cotton sheets I have.
