The Hiccapop Inflatable Toddler Travel bed features a hollow blow up bed with raised sides.
The mattress, which can be removed, is placed inside the bed and can hold up to 310lbs (140kg) in wegith.
It measures 48 inches (4ft) long, which is more than the average height of a two-year-old child and fits standard cot sheets.
The bed is designed for kids between the ages of 18 months and 24 months, and can be inflated in 30 seconds.
Hiccapop claim: “Kids cannot sleep in adult beds before they are 24 months old, yet most outgrow a crib at 18 months.”

A family, who took it to Disneyland, said their it stopped their four-year-old son rolling out of bed.
