What bed for a 2-year-old?

In the first period of life, when the child requires constant care, the piece of furniture that can provide both sleep comfort and security is undoubtedly a cot. However, this is only a temporary solution and is usually no longer sufficient around the time of the child's second birthday - this is when the child becomes more independent and mobile, and the rungs surrounding the cot, previously a safety feature, now restrict the child's movements and ability to play. This is therefore a great time to buy a new bed - but which bed is best for a two-year-old? What should you consider when choosing beds for your child's room?

A bed for a two-year-old - a new piece of furniture or a model that grows with the child?

It would seem that once your child has outgrown his or her cot, our only option is to buy a new bed. However, this does not have to be the case. In recent years, furniture that grows with the child has become very popular. What does this mean? These are solutions whose design allows changes to be made to suit the changing needs of the toddler. We also have such models in our range. For example 3S cotwhich is ideal for a baby's room, but simply remove the safety rungs to transform it into a functional and comfortable couch for an older child as well. In this way, the piece of furniture transforms into an ideal bed for a 2-year-old. This is a solution that will last for years, so it may not be necessary to buy a new bed for your child at all at this stage.

What size should you choose a children's bed in?

The question of choosing the optimum size of a child's bed for a 2-year-old is very important, because it has a huge impact on the comfort and quality of sleep - we must not forget that sleep not only affects well-being, it is also essential for the proper development of the young body, which is particularly important in the case of small children. The size of a bed for a child must therefore be chosen not in terms of the space available in the design, but in terms of the child's height - above all, such a piece of furniture must not be too short. In the case of a two-year-old's room, models measuring 140 × 70 cm or 160 × 80 cm are often chosen, but for parents wishing to invest in a high-quality bed for their child that will accompany him or her through the childhood years, we recommend larger models. Full-size children's beds work equally well when the little ones are two years old and when they are older.

Children's beds for a 2-year-old can come in a variety of forms. An interesting solution for a child's room can be pull-out bedwhich allows you to quickly and easily create an additional sleeping place or even Double bed. It's a great choice for parents of children who have difficulty falling asleep on their own - the larger bed will provide parents with comfort when reading to their child before bed or putting their toddler to sleep.

What bed height is safe for a child?

When choosing the size of the mattress, it is also important to pay attention to what height it is. Young children are often very mobile not only when playing, but even when sleeping. It is important to bear this in mind when choosing a bed for a 2-year-old. When the child is small, the bed's rungs are a guarantee of safety at night - a two-year-old who is just starting to use the bed independently may not yet be ready to lose such protection. It is therefore worth choosing a bed fitted with barriers to protect him against a possible fall. However, a lot also depends on the temperament of the child - for some toddlers bed raised It is a dream come true and a great element of play, but a child who does not like being at heights may feel insecure and uncomfortable on it. Therefore, when choosing a bed for a child's room, it is worth remembering first of all about the needs of its main user.

Finishing and materials - what should you pay attention to?

Children's beds is a very diverse product category in which you will find solutions in different sizes, styles and colours, but also in different materials. However, not all of them offer the same high quality. So what is worth opting for?

When it comes to the bed frame itself, it is best to opt for a wooden model. Wood is a solid material - its durability guarantees that its quality will be maintained for a long time even with intensive use. It is also easy to work with, which allows manufacturers to create furniture that is not only practical and comfortable, but also very attractive. To ensure safety, all the components of a bed for a 2-year-old, but also for children of other ages, must be firmly connected. However, a stable and sturdy construction is not everything - the finish is also important.

The surface of the wood must be perfectly smooth, without any sharp edges, so that the child is not at risk of injury while sleeping or playing on the bed. The unique look of children's beds is ensured both by the design itself and the colours used - beds in various colours are also available in our range. When choosing the paints used to finish the beds, we rely on health-safe products that do not contain toxins.

It is also important to choose a comfortable mattress for your child's bed - it should provide stable support for the body during sleep, but also ensure adequate air circulation to keep the mattress hygienic. High-quality models to match the beds in the Inmondo collection are available as part of our supplementary offer.

A functional bed for a child's room

The right bed will provide the maximum level of comfort, but it can also be very helpful in optimising the available space. How? All of our beds can be supplemented with a matching drawer, which provides additional storage space, making it easier to keep the room tidy - which is quite a challenge in a toddler's room. Even more possibilities are offered by raised beds, under which we can easily fit even smaller chests of drawers to accommodate your child's clothes or toys - a great way to save space to functionally furnish a small room and, in larger rooms, provide your little one with plenty of space to play.

A children's bed as an element of decor, i.e. furniture that offers quality and style

When furnishing a child's room, it is worth reaching for non-standard solutions - such furniture will perform its basic function perfectly, but at the same time will become a unique decoration of the room, giving it a more childlike character and creating an atmosphere conducive to inventing creative games. Our collections are characterised by a modern style of furniture that will fit perfectly into any interior design. This is ensured by a variety of finishes and a choice of colour options.

Such a bed will not only be a place to sleep, but also a base to play on, and thanks to solid railings, the child will be protected at all times from falling out. This is the perfect choice of bed for a 2-year-old, but not only for him.

A bed for a two-year-old must combine comfort and safety. It should provide a peaceful night's sleep not only for the child, but also for the parents, who will not be worried about the toddler while he is using such a bed independently. It is therefore a piece of furniture that forms the basis of the décor of a child's room, which, thanks to its stylish finish, also becomes its decoration.
