Bed rails

[shark]

DS1 has been in his "big boy" bed for about 3m now.  His bed is not against a wall and so we have bed rails on either side.  How do I Know when he is ready to get rid of the bed rails and is there anything special I should do when we do get rid of them?

Forging into new territory here!

Thanks!

We have a safety 1st brand bedrail, and the instructions say that it's good for ages 2-5. Assuming that's normal, I don't think there's any rush to get rid of it if it makes them more comfortable
