Kids Bunk Bed – A Great Way to Maximize Space Bunk beds for kids are a great option to save money and maximize space. Choose beds that have solid foundations and mattress supports that prevent gaps or areas where children can be trapped or entangled. The method by which the bed is accessed is also important. Bunk beds are usually accessed via stairs or ladders, and angled ladders take less space than standard ladders that are vertical. Space-saving Design Bunk beds are the ideal way to maximize a small space. Whether you're looking to outfit an attic bedroom or even the small space in your home, bunks for kids help you save floor space, without sacrificing any comfort or style. Most bunk beds offer twin over full or twin over queen configurations so your children can share a bed while enjoying their own space. A bunk bed for three is also an excellent option, particularly in the event that you plan to use the bottom bunk as a playroom or office during the day. The majority of bunks have a ladder built into the frame or a staircase that leads to the top bunk. The ladder's height shouldn't exceed 5-6 feet from the ceiling for safety reasons. This will avoid head bumps and ensure that the child who sleeps on the top bunk does not sleep too high. Think about a wooden bunkbed that has stairs for your kids' bedroom furniture to be elegant. This will not only add a stylish accent to your child's bedroom, but also provide ample storage space for all the toys, books and other items they might require. Some bunks can be converted to a futon. This allows your children to utilize the lower bunk bed as a couch during the day and then slide out the top futon for a comfortable sleeping area at night. This type of bunk is ideal for rooms with a lot of space and your children are old enough to handle the extra sleeping surface. If you don't have the space for the traditional bunk consider alternatives such as a corner loft or bunk. These beds are positioned in the corner of your child's room, leaving the room for other furniture, such as shelves or dressers. Some bunk beds have an attached desk, which means that your kids can do their homework while in their bed. This will help them remain focused and help them develop good habits for studying. Easy Climbing Ladder Bunk beds can be an ideal solution for children who want to sleep in separate rooms but do not have the space for two separate rooms. A majority of our beds feature a ladder to make it easier for children to access the top bunk. This is safer than climbing up the sides of the bunk bed which can be risky. Children should only climb onto the top bunk when they are mature enough to climb safely, which is usually when they reach six years old. Many parents are attracted by the straight ladders on bunk beds, but we suggest angles to increase the safety and ease of use. They provide a smoother climbing experience, and are also easier to grip. To climb, children place their feet on the rungs one at a time and move up until they reach top bunk. Consider a ladder that has anti-slip grooves and handhole cutouts to allow children to grip the ladder while they climb. If you're looking for an all-time solution there are a myriad of designs of stairways that could be fixed permanently to the frame of bunk beds. They have a railing that surrounds the staircase for additional safety and also more treads to prevent slips and falls. You can select an item with built-in drawers for a more decorative appearance. This is a great option to keep your child's bedroom neat and tidy. Another way to save space is to select an loft bed that doesn't connect to the bottom bunk with a ladder at all and leaves plenty of space beneath for children to play or sleep. Many of these bunk beds and lofts are designed to be reminiscent of a treehouse or some other amusing structure, making them a great choice for kids who love to spend time outdoors. Some of our bunk and loft beds have an added slide for an additional spark of excitement. Extra Storage Many bunk and loft beds also have storage options for kids to keep their rooms tidy and neat. They can store clothes, books, toys, and more vertically, which saves valuable floor space. These beds can also be used in modern and traditional bedroom designs. Browse the collection of twin over full bunk beds at Pottery Barn Kids to find the bed that best suits your child's needs and the style of their room. A classic Maxtrix loft with drawers is an an easy option to add more storage to your kiddo's bunk bed. It uses two spacious drawers that can be used to store clothes and shoes, bedtime essentials and other things. The drawers have unidirectional casters that make it easy for children to open and close them. This is an excellent option for children who share rooms, since it allows them to keep one another's belongings away from each other's reach. This Maxtrix loft bed has an integrated desk and an hutch to create a practical study nook. The solid wood desk for kids is easily removed from underneath the bed and folds up when not in use, thus preserving the space to play. This is a great option for kids who love to use the computer or create all day. When it's time to go to bed the bunk at the bottom of this Maxtrix can be turned into a comfortable sofa. This is a great choice for children who want to invite friends to sleepovers or parents who wish to free up space in the guest room. This twin over futon is also ideal for children who are preparing to move to regular beds from cribs. Bunk or loft beds are ideal for children who love to climb, and have a lot of energy. These beds are a fun alternative to traditional furniture for bedrooms. They come in many different designs, finishes, and configurations. There are options that include a storage trundle or ladder for guests to sleep over and it is possible to accommodate the evolving needs of a family within the space of a single bedroom. Fun Slide The fun factor of bunk beds for kids can be enhanced even further by adding a slide. The excitement of children racing down the top bunk stimulates creative play and activities, making it easier for them to fall asleep at night. Bunk beds with slides are a great way to combine play and sleep in the same space, ideal for shared rooms for children and families that are growing. Kids can race up the ladder, and then slide down the slide and bring hours of entertainment to their space. Our unique bunk and loft bed with slide models are available in full and twin sizes so they fit comfortably in most bedrooms, and can be divided to make two standard beds at a later time. The bunk bed frame is constructed out of birch solid and has natural wood grain as shown, but it can be purchased in White or Chestnut. For bunk bed for kids with limited space, our bunk bed with slide options include the Billi-Bolli Slide Tower, which can be attached to either the side of the ladder, or the front of the frame for the bunk bed. The slide can protrude up to 190cm depending on the height of the frame. A 70-cm exit opening is required. Pick a bunk bed for your kids and add a slide to make the ultimate play and sleep combination! You can further customize your kids bunk bed with the addition of bottom play curtains to create a fun castle-like fort and drawers for trundle storage to provide extra sleeping space when you have overnight guests.
