Abstract
A system and method for a reversible sheet. The fitted sheet has a top layer with an inner side and an outer side and a bottom layer with an inner side and an outer side. The top layer is coupled to the bottom layer by a sealed top edge, a sealed base edge, and a sealed bottom edge. The sealed base edge is perpendicular to the top edge and the bottom edge. The top layer and bottom layer each have a flap portion which has an open flap and an open end edge. A mattress is inserted into the open end edge. The front end of the mattress is secured into the open flap of either the top or bottom layer. This secures the fitted sheet around the mattress. A child cannot pull the fitted sheet away from the mattress because the fitted sheet surrounds the mattress.
