In choosing it you have to consider your child’s interests, storage space and safety.

What styles of beds for small children are there?

Beds for children are manufactured with what captivates them in mind. Of course, since these beds are for young children, many are available in vibrant colors such as blue, pink, green, yellow and more. You can find a bed for a 5-year-old in many shapes and one that reflects one of many themes. They include characters and objects from movies, books and the activities your child is involved in. Styles of beds to consider include bunk beds, trundle beds, captain’s beds, loft beds, and canopy beds.

What are bunk beds?

Bunk beds are two —usually twin—beds, one upper and one lower. Children reach the upper bed by using stairs or a ladder designed for the bed. These beds allow two children to sleep in the same room while saving space. Some units have enclosures for storage.

What's a trundle bed?

A trundle bed is another space-saver because beneath its slightly elevated main bed is another one that slides in and out from the frame. Since this style of bed sits low to the floor, if a child falls out she is unlikely to hurt herself.

Beds of this type are handy for sleepovers. You can even find a bunk bed with a trundle bed that allows three children to sleep in one room. If you have a device for measuring noise, it’s going to record a high decibel level.

What are loft beds?

Loft beds are elevated beds that have an area for storage or play underneath. Your child gets into the bed by using its ladder. These beds work best in rooms that have a ceiling that’s at least 8 feet high.

What are canopy beds?

Canopy beds are beds with tall posts over which is a canopy is draped. Traditionally, they have been for girls, but ones with posts minus the canopy are purchased for boys.

What's a captain's bed?

A captain's bed is a bed with a lot of storage drawers underneath it. Traditionally, it has high sides. Young children have a lot of items they play with and need for living in their rooms. They need a place to keep them. A captain’s bed is one of the beds that meet that requirement.

Though the captain’s bed is touted as one that’s excellent for storage, conscientious shopping can lead you to almost any style of bed with storage space. Ensure that beds that are elevated high off the floor have guard rails. The mattress for a bunk bed should be at least 5 inches below the railing.
