How do you select the right-sized children bed?

Too often parents invest in small beds only to have their kids outgrow them in a year. A children bed is an investment—in their physical, mental, and emotional well-being. A child’s room is their sanctuary in this world. A good sized bed gives a child the space they need to grow into the adults they need to become. Experts suggest that the transition from beds for children to a normal-sized adult beds (3ftX6.3ft) should ideally occur when the child is between 18 and 36 months. At Urban Ladder, we have a range of semi-adult cots for children that will see them through childhood to graduation. Here are some of the features we include in our children’s beds.

• Railings:

  Our beds for children have railings to prevent active sleepers from falling off their beds, especially if the bed is raised well off the floor. See our Barnley for how this children bed design is optimized to ensure safety.

• Lowered children cot:

  A bed for children should be easily accessible for small limbs. Climbing on and off should be effortless, for children below a certain age, without sustaining injury. Our Yuri is an ideal kids cot for children who are slowly turning into young adults.

• Features:

  Beds must enable some level of convenience. Whether through storage, as detailed in the previous section of this article, or perhaps easy access to books and knickknacks from handy bookshelves that flank the bed. Every piece of furniture must facilitate everyday living.

What are the benefits of buying a kids single bed?

One of the many questions that parents are confronted with when they think about buying a kids bed is, how big of a bed do their kids need? The correct answer to that question is - it depends on the space available in the room, on whether your child has a full room to him/herself or whether they will be sharing with their siblings. Our range of single beds for kids is quite vast and gives you as many options as you might need.

A single bed for kids makes sense if the room is rather small and there isn’t much space. It is important that kids have access to a study table and have enough floor area to play, dance, twirl, and all the things that kids like to do in their free time. A single kids bed will afford kids the extra space they need. A single bed also makes sense for kids who need to share a room. A pair of single beds for girls or boys in a room still gives kids a sense of independence and belonging. Our Yuri is a stackable option for siblings who need the extra space in their room but still need to share a space. It contains two kids single beds that are stackable for easy storage in the day. We have options that convert kids single to double beds as well, in the form of trundle pull-out beds.

For instance, if your kid’s bedroom is small, bunk beds or storage beds work wonderfully.
