I showed my wife this picture and she said she has seen where people will use those pool noodles tucked inside the fitted sheet on one edge of a bed which tends to put enough of a buffer for kids not to roll off. You may be looking for something higher and more substantial but that's a cheap quick fix. Maybe you could even figure out a way to throw two in there if double stacked (maybe ducked taped together and cut to size) since they can mold to the curve of the mattress.

I second this! Plus the kids like them at the pool!
Toys r us/ babies r us sell portable and foldable rails that have supports that slide under the side of the mattress. We used one as a headboard in our old pop up so the pillows didn’t fall through.
Mine doesn't have the open area on two sides - just an opening on one side.
But this is what I made. The fence looking part will slide up and off the angle brackets to keep my littlest one in and it's hard enough that he can't do it himself. The plywood that the angle brackets are attached to slides under the mattress. Seems heavy enough in testing and add the kids weight on top of it and it shouldn't go anywhere. I can always screw it in at a few spots if needed.
Pretty neat, getting the Angle on mine might be tricky.
