Mid Sleeper Beds For Kids
If your child is too large to fit in a bunk bed or trying to make the most of their bedroom space, a mid-sleeper is the ideal solution. Built with desks and storage, these beds are versatile and a parents dream.
All age groups can benefit from mattresses that are less than the frame, which means that children cannot roll out of the bed during sleeping.
Height
A mid sleeper is a children bed that is lower than the high sleeper. They feature a raised sleeping area with space underneath that can be used for storage, a desk or even a play space. These beds are great for rooms with small spaces because they provide the same amount sleeping space as bunk beds while taking up less space. They're also great for children who want to share a room with a sibling or a friend, since the bed can comfortably accommodate two mattresses.
The height of the mid-sleeper varies based on the style. However they're usually between 110cm and 140cm high. This is the same height of a standard bedframe. Most of our mid-sleepers require a single mattress, however, some models are suitable for a double or even a triple mattress therefore make sure you check the product specifications before making your purchase.
Safety is always the first priority when it comes to the size of a cabin bed. Our selection of kids mid-sleepers is designed with safety in mind. The staircases on our models were designed with safety in mind. They feature large steps that are easier to navigate and lower the risk of accidents. The rails that guard your child's sleeping area are also higher than on the standard bunk bed. This will prevent them from rolling out of bed during the night.
We suggest that your child only use the mid sleeper for sleep, and not to play or hang from the ladder. This could increase the risk of falling and injuries. We also advise against using a mid-sleeper for children under the age of six, as they may struggle to climb up and down the stairs safely.
Space
Mid sleepers, also referred to as cabin beds, are elevated enough to allow furniture to be placed beneath them, turning bedrooms into multi-purpose zones for study as well as play and sleep. They are ideal for children who's rooms aren't equipped with floor space for other furniture and are designed to be robust and sturdy.
The mid-sleeper bed is often equipped with a ladder or steps that allow children to climb up to the sleeping area. This is much easier than having to crawl or leap into a traditional bunk bed or high sleeper. This makes them easier to use for children who are younger and helps them become independent as they get ready for bed. It is essential to ensure that the stairs or ladders are equipped with guard rails that meet safety standards and are used in a way that does not pose a danger of injury.
One of the greatest advantages of a mid sleeper is that they are usually fitted with ample storage space. Many models have the cubby hole or stairway-like drawer under the bed that can be used to store books, toys, and trinkets. These features are a favorite among parents due to their ability to clear the room of clutter and help create a neat space that still allows for plenty of space for kids to be children.
Mid-sleeper bed can be used as a desk. This is a great way to help children with their homework and projects. It's also a great opportunity to encourage good study habits and the importance of having a designated workspace. Most models will include a pull-out desk, which can be neatly stored away when not in use and is especially beneficial in smaller bedrooms where space optimization is crucial.
If your child is creative and imaginative, they will adore the idea of a bed that could transform into a castle for princesses or a cozy living space. This is particularly true of the Skye Playhouse mid-sleeper which has been built to look like a house, complete with windows and roof. Kids can decorate the exterior of the Skye Playhouse with curtains or even twinkling lights to add a playful design.
