Kids Double Bunk Bed
The double bunk beds are perfect for siblings sharing rooms. Be aware that the child who is on the top bunk bed should be at least six years of age. Also, you should not allow horseplay or jumping on the beds.
Check that the mattress foundation doesn't have any gaps large enough, which could let children to pass through.
Safety
Bunk beds can be a safe place for children to sleep if they are set up correctly and if parents adhere to certain safety guidelines. The first thing to do is to make sure that the bunk bed is placed in an appropriate corner and doesn't wobble when kids climb up and down the ladder.
It is also important to instruct children not to play on or around the bunk bed and remove any toys that may be dangers to tripping. Children should also be taught to always utilize the ladder to get into and out of the bunk bed.
Children should not be allowed to sleep on the top bunk unless they're older than six years old. The reason is that younger children might not have the maturity or coordination to safely climb the ladder. In addition it is crucial to ensure that the guardrails of the upper bunk are properly anchored and that there aren't any gaps which might let children slide through and fall underneath the mattress.
Another important aspect to take into consideration is that the foundation of both the upper and lower bunk should be constructed with solid wood and not slats. The slat-based systems can collapse when weighed down by kids and cause serious injuries. Also, it is an excellent idea to reinforce the bottom bunk with cross ties to stop it from shifting or buckling under the kids' weight.
It is a good idea, if the child will be sleeping on their own in the bottom bunk, to attach a safety rail. This will help to prevent the child from falling off the edge of the bunk if they fall out of bed at night.
Another safety measure that is easy to apply is to ensure that the bunk bed is not placed directly under a ceiling fan. This reduces the chance of injuries or accidents occurring when the ceiling fan is on. The bunk bed should be kept away from windows to reduce the risk that children will try to reach the windows from the upper level.
Style
As kids grow up and move from a crib to a single mattress, they may wish to feel as if they belong in the big kid's room. Bunk beds can be a way to do that. They are available in different designs and finishes that match any design. Plus, they help conserve space, so that kids have more space to play or storage.
