Choosing a bed for your child is a big deal. Think of it as their own personal haven, a cosy nook where they can relax, read, play, and drift off to sleep with a smile on their face.

Our range of kids' beds is designed to be as unique and imaginative as the kids who use them. We've got everything from classic single beds that are perfect for snuggling up with a good book to playful bunk beds that turn bedtime into an adventure. Looking for something a little more out-of-the-box? We've got whimsical novelty beds shaped like cars, boats, and even castles! And for those who need a little extra storage space, we've got beds with built-in drawers and shelves to keep those toys and treasures organised.

What Are Some Trending Kids' Beds

Kids' beds have come a long way from the standard single bed! These days, there's a whole new world of unique designs to choose from.

1. Novelty Beds: These beds are designed to spark imagination and adventure, with themes like cars, airplanes, boats, and even castles. Car beds, especially race and firetruck beds, are a perennial favorite. Beds shaped like spaceships, boats, and even teepees are also gaining popularity.

2. Bunk Beds: A classic choice for siblings sharing a room or for sleepovers. They maximise space and offer a fun and interactive sleeping arrangement. Triple bunks, L-shaped bunks, and bunks with built-in storage or study desks offer even more versatility.

3. Loft Beds: Elevate the sleeping area, creating space underneath for a play area, study desk, or storage. They're perfect for maximising space in smaller rooms. Mid-sleepers are lower loft beds that are suitable for younger children.

4. Trundle Beds: They have a hidden bed that pulls out from underneath, providing an extra sleeping space for guests or sleepovers. They're a great space-saving solution.

5. Beds with Storage: These beds come with built-in drawers, shelves, or under-bed storage compartments, helping to keep toys, books, and clothes organised.

6. House Beds: Feature a frame that resembles a house, creating a cosy and enclosed space for children to sleep and play. They often have windows, roofs, and other fun details.

7. Teepee Beds: Offer a playful and stylish twist on the traditional bed, with a teepee-shaped frame and fabric canopy. They're perfect for creating a boho-chic vibe in a child's room.

8. Daybeds: Can be used as both a bed and a sofa, making them a versatile option for smaller rooms or playrooms.

What Should You Look For When Buying a Bed For Your Kids

First things first, safety is a no-brainer. You want a bed that's built to last and won't fall apart after a few epic pillow fights. Look for solid materials like wood or metal, and make sure it's got all the safety features like guard rails and smooth, rounded edges.

Next up, size matters. Think about how old your child is, how much they've grown, and how much space they have in their room. You don't want a bed they'll outgrow in a year, and you don't want it taking over the whole room.

Get your child involved in selecting the type or style of bed they want! After all, it's their bed, and they're the ones who have to love it. Think about their favorite colours, themes, and whether they want a bed that looks like a race car or a princess castle. If you're feeling fancy, you can even try to match the bed to their room décor.

Think about all the cool features you can get. Need extra storage for all those toys and treasures? No problem, we've got beds with drawers and shelves galore. Want a bed that can transform into a bunk bed for sleepovers? Done! And don't forget about those fun extras like bookcases, trundles, or even built-in desks – because who doesn't love a bed that can multitask?

Of course, we can't forget about the budget. Set a price range before you get carried away browsing all those awesome beds. But when you shop on MyDeal, you'll easily find beds within your budget.

When Should You Switch a Toddler Bed

If your toddler is consistently climbing out of their crib, it's definitely time for a change. This is a major safety concern, as falls can lead to injuries. Some toddlers start expressing a desire for a "big kid" bed, or they might show interest in their older sibling's or parents' beds. They might also start asking to sleep with a pillow or blanket, which are not recommended for cribs due to safety concerns.

Most cribs have weight or height limits. If your toddler is approaching these limits, it's time to consider a bed. Additionally, if you're starting potty training, transitioning to a bed can make nighttime bathroom trips easier. Also, if you're expecting a new baby, you might want to transition your toddler to a bed a few months before the baby arrives to avoid any feelings of displacement or jealousy. While age isn't the sole determining factor, most toddlers transition to a bed between 18 months and 3.5 years old.
