In order to do this you must first introduce your baby to the crib. Make it clear that it is safe, that it is good and comfortable to sleep in.

"The bed should be of interest to the child."

A favorite toy for sleeping will help to love the crib. It should be small - the size of an adult's palm, pleasant to the touch and not contain dangerous objects (buttons, small parts that can be ripped off). At the learning stage this toy will"bring" a baby pleasant surprises after every long nap (something tasty that the child likes, for example some objects or toys, stickers that can be glued to the crib and viewed later, books, coloring books, etc.).

Bedding with pictures of the child's interests (dolls, unicorns, cars, animals).

It is important that the baby likes the crib and evokes pleasant feelings and the crib is interesting to him or her.
