Kids Beds Bunk Beds
Bunk beds are ideal for maximizing space in a small room. The challenge of climbing up to the top is what kids love about them. They also enjoy having the ability to look over their peers' heads.

This bunk bed contains no DEHP, DBP or PBDE. It is made of eco-friendly New Zealand Pine wood. It is also available in a variety of finishes and can be separated into two separate beds when your children have outgrown it.
Ladders
A ladder or staircase is the safest method for children to reach their bunk bed. Ladders come in a variety of designs and configurations. From standard twin over twin bunk beds that accommodate both children on the top and bottom to full over queen or double over double bunks. Ladders are available at different heights so that your children can feel at ease climbing to the top. Ladders can be permanently attached to the frame, or removable in certain models. They may also include a railing to ensure that the children sleeping on top of the ladder don't fall.
Look into a bunk bed with an end ladder for those who want to reduce space. Instead of the standard ladder that extends from the frame's side, this type of ladder is attached to one end of the bed, which frees the space on either side to accommodate seating or other furniture. These bunks are ideal for small spaces or rooms that are shared. It is easy to alter the layout of these bunks as your children get older.
Ladders are an excellent choice for older children who are able climbers. They are reasonably priced and offer easy access to the top bunk. They can also be an ideal choice for smaller kids, especially those with mobility issues and joint problems. When shopping for a bunk bed with a ladder, be looking for features like hand holes and anti-slip grooved steps.
Stairs are the traditional method of accessing the top bunk. They are safe for young kids, and they are also a great choice for adults who wish to reduce the chance of falling off the bed during their climb. They also tend to use less space on the floor than ladders for bunk beds, and are a great fit for smaller rooms.

Stairs
There are a variety of choices when it comes to the design and function of bunk beds designed for kids. There are kids bunk beds of options to choose from including twin over twin and full over futon styles. They will all fit into any room design. You'll also find a range of other options that make these beds more appealing, such as staircases and storage space.
If you have space in the bedroom of your child and you have stairs, bunk beds can be a great option. They will provide them with the most convenient and secure way to climb up to the top of the bed, especially if they are younger and still developing their coordination skills. In addition, they give parents easier access to the top bunk in case they have to get up with their children for a story at bedtime or other activities.
Many of the kids loft beds we have in our collection have an integrated staircase that makes climbing up to bed at nighttime an easy task. Some models come with a futon or trundle underneath the stairs to give you extra storage or sleeping space. This is perfect for when guests are staying or if your kids are looking to make use of the space to relax or studying.
When you are choosing a bunk bed that has stairs, it's important to be aware of the safety guidelines for kids' beds. Kids should be at least six years old before they can be able to sleep on the top bunk, and they should also be confident enough to navigate a ladder safely. If your child is older than that then you might be better off with an loft or bunk bed without stairs until they are ready for the top bunk.
If you're short on space, but you would like to give your kids the benefit of sleeping together in the same room, a standard twin-over-twin bunk bed is a great choice. The bunks come with a variety of climbing options such as standard and leaning ladders and metal or wood guard rails on the top. There are also bunks with storage space for additional storage or a trundle design that can accommodate guests and sleepovers.
Separate Beds
A bunk bed is an excellent option for children who want to share their bedroom and save space. It is important to remember that some children might not be ready for the top bunk until they are at least six years of age, and are more comfortable sleeping up high. If your child is little younger, consider choosing a loft bed or loft with a lower platform to provide storage or a children's desk that can be added to the set-up later on.
Many of our lofts have beds with low levels on the bottom level for children younger than the age of 5 and a large bed at the top for older kids. This gives both children own spaces to sleep, study or play - and lets parents make use of the space underneath the beds to put in additional children' furniture like furniture, a dresser, or desk storage. Pick a loft with an office or a built-in desk with plenty of storage beneath.
There are designs that have separate twin beds on the upper levels for each child. This is a great option if your children will be sharing a room after they've grown out of their crib or toddler beds. These are known as twin over twin bunk bed styles and are available in a variety of styles, ranging from traditional to modern. A lot of these designs feature the standard staircase or ladder to allow access to upper levels, as well as a trundle which can be lifted out from underneath the lower twin bed to allow for sleepovers.
Keep in mind that some children might change their mind as they grow older and would prefer to have a separate twin bed instead of a bunk. It's important to plan out your children's bedroom in advance, so you can determine if a bunk bed will be the best choice for them. Fortunately, most kids' bunk beds convert easily into single-story twin beds to give each child their own space to rest and relaxation.
Age Rating
There is no universal age to determine the time a child is ready for a bunk bed. Typically, kids are ready for a top bunk when they outgrow their toddler bed and possess sufficient dexterity and judgment to safely climb a ladder. However children as young as five or six years old may be successful in the top bunk if they are peaceful sleepers and have a strong sense of balance and coordination.
When determining whether a child is capable of using a bunk bed it is important to be aware of their maturity. They must understand the importance of observing safety rules and be physically able to use the top bunk without assistance. Additionally, if siblings or roommates will be sharing the bunk bed, take into consideration their relationship and how they get together.
When choosing a bunkbed for kids the most important aspect to consider is the overall quality and safety features. Be sure that the bunk bed has sturdy guard rails on both sides of the upper bed, and that the ladder is securely attached. It is important that the height and distance of the ladder from the ground to the top bunk are appropriate for the child's height. Be sure that the space is big enough to allow plenty of mobility, and that the bunk bed is not in the way of windows or doors.
While some of these issues might seem minor but it is essential to think about the safety of a bunk bed prior to placing it in the bedroom of a child. If you aren't sure if your child is able to handle a bunk bed, consider consulting with a pediatrician or specialist in youth furniture to determine their maturity and safety level.
Bunk beds are a great option to free up space in a child's bedroom, and they can encourage the bonding between siblings. Parents must be mindful to assess a child's readiness to use the bunk bed. This is especially true for the top bunk.
