Kids Beds – FAQs
Are children’s beds safe?
Children’s beds are designed to keep little ones safe and must meet strict UK safety standards.
BS 8509 covers two bed types, toddler beds for under fours and junior beds such as low sleepers, for children aged four-plus.
Elevated styles such as bunk beds, mid sleepers and high sleepers comply with BS EN 747, for children of six and over.
A bed’s recommended age should always be used as a guide to ensure safe use.
What bed types are available for children?
Kid's beds come in many styles, from low sleepers with easy access to raised beds that make the most of floor space.
Practical designs include mid sleepers and cabin beds with desks and storage, through to loft beds with integrated wardrobes.
Bunk beds are ideal for siblings where space is limited, while themed designs and gaming beds add fun to a child’s room.
What type of bed is best for a small bedroom?
The best bed for a small room will depend on the number of children, their age and any storage needs.
Bunk beds are ideal for shared rooms as they sleep more than one child, while some models also include storage.
Mid sleepers and high beds maximise space in compact rooms, with clever design features for older kids.
Which kid’s beds include storage options?
Many styles of children’s beds are designed with built-in storage, with options to suit all ages.
Junior beds such as low sleepers are ideal for younger children, with drawers, shelving and toy storage.
Older kids may prefer mid sleepers or high beds with wardrobes, desks or other features beneath the sleeping area.
What’s the best bed for growing kids?
As children grow, they need a comfortable bed that suits their developing needs and personality.
For younger children, moving from toddler to junior beds introduces low-level designs and playful themed styles.
As they get older, raised sleeper beds offer extra space for study, hobbies and storage, creating a more grown-up room.
