When I first bought our used Fleet I was trying to figure out how our young daughter was going to sleep in the camper and what that sleeping arrangement was going to look like. I had quite a hard time finding any information on this subject except for this http://www.wanderthewest.com/forum/topic/10441-babytoddlers-sleeping-arrangment/?hl=toddler post. Well, coming from an ultralight backpacking mindset I knew that I did not want to carry around a pack and play let alone try to set it up every night in a Fleet. What we settled on was a Kidco Peapod Plus that is essentially a tent that folds up much like those windshield sun shades. When the "tent" is folded it tucks into a pouch that I velcroed to the water tank cabinet. I removed the rollover portion of the couch (takes up more room than it's worth anyway) and installed a footman loop with webbing and a side release buckle at the head and foot of the "tent". This allows us to set up the "tent" and clip it in ensuring that our daughter doesn't push on the one side and end up on the floor. I also covered the windows with Refletix to block out any vehicle lights that may shine in as they drive throughout a campground. All of this has worked perfectly for us and I just wanted to pass on the idea for those that might be wanting to travel with their youngster.

pretty slick! We had one of those tents for our kids at the beach and have taken it camping as well. Nice work
