Beds for girls over 3 years old

Time inexorably rushes forward. This is especially noticeable by how quickly children grow up. So your baby has grown up. Now she just needs a new bed.

This article is written to help parents navigate the many models on the furniture market, as well as in the materials from which make cribs.

A cot for a child over 3 years old is like an adult bed. By design, it is very similar to the bed of parents. The basis consists of a reliable frame, one or two backs on each side, a pallet that holds the mattress.

Often there are models that are similar to a holistic podium with a back, a bed with a semi-soft coating, filling.

Cots for children are made low so that children can freely climb on them and easily descend.

An important factor when buying a baby crib is functionality. This criterion is especially significant if the children's room is quite small. Then it is better to focus on the types and models that save living space.

Often the beds are equipped with protective bumpers that prevent the fall of the child, relieving him of the fear of falling during sleep. How much they are needed, whether they are needed at all - it depends on the mobility of the sleeping children.

When buying a cot, give preference to products made from natural materials: wood, cotton canvas in the coating, hypoallergenic filler.

The option of the crib, created from pure wood, will be the best. Wood is a natural material, it does not contain radioactive substances, it lacks sharp odors, it is distinguished by high resistance to wear, which is important when it comes to children's furniture. By the way, wooden beds are very attractive in their appearance, so girls especially like them.

Unfortunately, you have to pay for quality and comfort.The price of such products does not suit many. Therefore, manufacturers often offer cheaper alternatives made from MDF or chipboard.

MDF has many color variations. The material allows you to realize a lot of design decisions. Beds from MDF differ originality, variety of forms.

Cots of chipboard are the most short-lived, have a rather low resistance to wear. But if at present you cannot afford something more durable and expensive, they will help you out. In the end, everything will depend on how carefully your child exploits the bed. Typically, girls are thrift, so immediately dismiss this option is not worth it. In addition, such products are also very nice and harmoniously look in the rooms.

It is not recommended to purchase a metal crib. Such a design can be dangerous for the child. Children from the age of 3 are usually very mobile, so there is a huge risk of hitting the hard parts of the crib, resulting in serious injuries.

With particular care is recommended to consider buying a mattress.The condition of your baby during sleep mainly depends on this component of the bed.

Let's get acquainted with the main types of mattresses:

• spring;
• springless;
• orthopedic.

It is not recommended to buy too soft mattresses. The bones of the child grow, continuing to form. In order not to harm the spine, choose a hard enough mattress. But do not overdo it - the body of the child is still very tender, so it is uncomfortable for children to sleep on a too hard mattress.

The mattress, which has a removable cover made of natural fabric, is perfect for a baby bed. Good models have two types of upholstery: summer and winter.

Note that in 3 years old children still do not quite manage their body well in the process of sleep. This fact is fundamental when choosing a bed. We advise you to buy a bed equipped with reliable bumpers that cover the mattress along its entire length.

Be sure to remember that the baby is constantly growing.Choose a length exceeding its height by 30-40 cm. This will allow you not to buy another bed for 2-3 years.

The most comfortable are modern beds, equipped with linen drawers. A cot of this type will allow you not to force the children's room with large closets, there will be a place for clothes or toys for your baby.

Children especially need a comfortable state and comfort. We do not recommend to buy a bed with a very soft mattress or a holistic coating. Prefer semi-solid filler, which, besides providing comfort, will also perform an orthopedic function. Such a bed will allow the child to sleep well.

Too many warm bedding can have a bad effect on children's well-being and prevent them from falling asleep. It is necessary to choose clothes from safe fabrics and fillers, the average level of thermal insulation. It will provide comfort.

Modern furniture stores are ready to provide a variety of children's furniture, including cots.

There are the main types of cots:

• corner models;
• straight classic;

• bunk;
• beds - attics;
• transformers.

Usually the beds are:

• with one or two backs;
• with the sides of the entire length or partial fencing;
• with drawers at the bottom.

Corner models are known for being perfectly located in the corner of a room. Straight classic models are familiar, comfortable, never go out of style.

We will pay special attention to bunk beds. This view is good if two babies sleep in a room. Selecting this type will save space in the room. Children most often like these beds. They create the effect of traveling by train. If you opted for this type of furniture, do not forget about security. Bunk beds are necessarily equipped with protective bumpers on all sides. The staircase must of course be stable, the steps must be comfortable, the base must be fixed.

Most often beds for children are made in bright colors. It happens that the colors are combined with each other. Girls most often prefer pink, beige and white colors.

Baby cots are distinguished by interesting design options.Often, products may have a transformational mechanism that resembles adult models.

Constructs that transform into other household items are very convenient. The most common example is a wardrobe bed. Assembled item - wardrobe, unfolded - bed.

Interesting transformers, representing the bed-podiums. When the furniture is folded, the sleeping part is placed inside the podium, which when assembled is an area for the games of the little ones. These models look stylish and original. In practical terms, they are also very convenient.

A kind of transforming beds are roll-out beds. These beds are interesting because the assembled furniture is a sleeping bed for one baby, but if necessary, the second bed rolls out from below.

There is one more example of a roll-out bed: during the day the bed hides in a wall or closet, and rolls out at night, transforming into a comfortable sleeping bed.

Modern parents are increasingly stopping the choice on children's sofas. This item attracts by the fact that after laying out the sofa has more space to sleep, therefore, the risk of rolling to the edge in a dream is minimized. However, it is of great importance to control the urination of the child. If your baby is still waking up wet, it would be better to prefer the traditional model of the bed.

Different furniture companies create high-quality bedroom furniture for children. It is up to you whether to buy a European cot or stay at a domestic manufacturer.

It is rather difficult to single out especially frequently purchased models of this furniture. Often cots are made to order according to the individual preferences of the client.

If your child likes to fantasize, he will like the model of the crib with the original design. The design in the form of a house, a boat, a carriage will create for your girl a wonderful mood both at bedtime and after waking up.

Parents of girls often choose a canopy bed. This is convenient because the canopy will allow you to darken the bed,when the child is sleeping during the day or when the light is on in the room.

Such designs for princesses are very diverse in appearance. Unusual design and versatility may differ so-called loft beds. They are especially convenient for very small rooms.

In this construction, the sleeping bed is a second floor, and the first floor can have many fillings, for example, a computer desk. Designs of this type look original, while saving living space.

It is possible to give preference to simpler inexpensive standard models, for example, “Baby-4”.

Italian companies are considered to be the best companies that produce beds for girls, but the price of Italian furniture will be much higher than the prices of domestic cribs, and its size may differ from our usual standards.

There are numerous models of cots, which are created with streamlined shapes. They are most preferred for girls.

So, we tried to talk about the most common types and models of cribs.

When choosing a bed for your grown up baby, remember: no need to chase fashion, loud brands. Your girl doesn’t care how much her bed costs. The main thing that the child was comfortable, cozy, safe. These factors are considered major when choosing a crib.
