What is the appropriate height for a safety playpen?

The height of the playpen depends on the age and height of the baby. Generally speaking, the height of the playpen that is more suitable for babies under 18 months is 26 inches (about 66 cm), while the height of the playpen for babies over 18 months can reach 32 inches (about 81 cm). If the baby is taller, you can choose a higher fence according to the actual situation. Generally, the height of the playpen should be slightly higher than the baby's head to prevent the baby from jumping out of the fence. If the baby's head exceeds the height of the fence, the baby may climb out, endangering the baby's safety. Therefore, when choosing a safety playpen, pay attention to the height to ensure that the baby does not jump out.

The height of the baby playpen can also be determined according to the indoor layout of the home. If your furniture, such as a sofa or chair, is taller, you can choose a taller playpen to make the most of your indoor space.

The height of a playpen may also be restricted by parents. For example, if parents want the baby to be able to see the scenery outside the indoor window, or if they want the baby to be able to see the activities at home, then they can choose a lower playpen.

Choosing the right playpen height is very important, considering not only the age and height of the baby, but also the indoor layout and parent needs. Only in this way can the safety of the baby be ensured.

The safety baby fence is an indispensable and important piece of furniture in family life. Its height must be determined according to the age and height of the baby and the size of the furniture. The height of the fence should be slightly higher than the baby's head to prevent the baby from jumping out, which can effectively protect the baby's safety.
