Children's bed with sides from 3 years old: requirements and varieties

Alexander Ryazantsev 12/23/2017 Children's Leave a comment 21,339 Views

When the baby has grown out of a cradle or a small crib with lattice sides, there is a need to buy a larger, comfortable and practical bed. When purchasing, parents are forced to choose between an acceptable price or the quality of the product. A high-quality crib with sides made of natural materials is quite expensive.

Remember that natural materials are reliable, durable, and furniture made from them will serve you for a long period of time.

More affordable beds have a mediocre appearance and are not of high quality. And considering that the baby loves to jump and spin on the bed, its service life often does not exceed several months.

What to do in this situation? You can make a baby crib with your own hands. It is enough to acquire simple materials and basic tools. You may not have knowledge and skills in carpentry; all you need is a little desire, patience and free time.

Criterias of choice

All future and young parents want to provide their child with only the best - from a place to sleep to toys. Understanding the quality of the products offered by modern manufacturers in a wide range is quite difficult, so let’s look at where to start and what criteria to use to choose a crib.

When choosing a children's sleeping place, you must first of all pay attention to the following basic criteria:

• crib and mattress sizes;
• material of manufacture and presence of odor;
• product safety;
• operating features;
• additional equipment;
• ease of use and functionality.

Next, we will consider each of the criteria in detail.

Required dimensions

Size parameters must be taken into account first of all if you need to choose a crib.

This is necessary for several reasons:

• It is important for owners of a small living space to understand how the crib will be located in the room;
• Manufacturers of accessories (mattresses, pillows, blankets, bedding and bed linen) focus on standard sleeping space sizes for a certain age.

To answer the question: “How to choose the right crib?”, You need to take into account that when making cribs for newborns, the following size chart is used:

• 1200x600 mm – standard Russian size of cribs from birth to three years;
• 1250x650 mm – European size for the same age;
• 1700x600 mm – European enlarged;
• 1400x700 mm – increased Russian dimensions, typical for transformers;
• 970x550 mm – the size of cradles for newborns up to one year old.

If you are interested in the question: “How to choose a crib by height?”, then there is nothing to think about - most of them have a standard height of one hundred centimeters from the floor.

In order to avoid the need to alter bedding or run around looking for a mattress of the required dimensions, most people buy cribs of standard sizes. In addition, this leads to budget savings if this criterion is important.

Requirements for a bed with sides for a child over 2 years old

Remember that you are going to buy a bed for a child, and this means that he will play and jump in it, rock it - so it should be as stable as possible. For the same reason, the children's bed version must be durable and strong.

They are usually equipped with quite spacious drawers in which you can put bedding and toys.

To prevent children from falling, the guardrails must be securely fixed. If they are made in the form of a lattice, then the distance between the bars should be 5-6 cm. This allows for ventilation and reduces the risk of a child getting stuck in this lattice.

The bed should not be narrow, because then sleeping in it will be uncomfortable.

What materials is it made from?

Beds for children over 2 years old with sides can be made from various materials. The safest material from a health point of view is wood. In addition, it is easy to process, allowing manufacturers to create a variety of designs. Wooden furniture is durable and reliable. An important fact for a children's bed is that the wooden structure always remains warm.

When choosing a bed for your child, you need to take into account the fact that the bed should be at least 30 cm longer than your child.

Popular models are beds made of chipboard, however, this is primarily due to their low cost, rather than technical characteristics. Chipboard is much inferior to all other materials in terms of service life and strength.

Manufacturers can use metal, which is a durable and reliable material. However, do not forget that metal products are dangerous.

Metal beds for children look beautiful, but metal is a cold material, and your baby will experience discomfort if it comes into contact with it.

Maximum practicality and durability are achieved in furniture in which materials are combined.

An important question is what materials were used in production to treat the surfaces of parts. Give preference to organic dyes, as paints and varnishes are more toxic.

Dimensions

The standard size of a children's bed is 120x60 cm; for large children there are models with a size of 127x63 cm.

For teenage beds there are also 2 standard sizes - 140x70 cm and 160x80 cm.

Like everything else in a children's room, you should choose natural materials for the bed.

Nowadays, many manufacturers offer custom-made beds according to the specified dimensions. However, you should remember that in this case you will also need a mattress and bedding of a non-standard size.

Excellent beds for a nursery would be those made from solid beech, birch, and pine.

Compare the age of the children and the size of the sides. For babies aged 2-3 years, the sides should reach their chest so that he does not accidentally fall over them. At the same time, you can organize a passage in one of the sides. For preschoolers, it is worth setting the sides at a level of at least 20 cm, and the length of the sides can be up to two-thirds of the length of the bed.

The most suitable bed size for a child over two years old is 70x140 cm and 80x150 cm.

Material of manufacture

The main requirement for the materials from which cribs for newborns are made is their safety. These include: sustainability, strength, environmental friendliness and reliability.

We can say with confidence that only some materials meet these requirements:

1. Wood – preferably beech, birch, alder or oak wood. This is a durable natural material that is resistant to physical impact. Pine can also be used in production, but products made from it are much softer in texture. With a sufficient budget, the answer to the question: “Which crib is better to choose?” There will be only one - wood, this is the most environmentally friendly material.
2. MDF is a less preferred material, but can also be used provided that the pressing was carried out using safe substances. The main thing is that the seller must announce the emission class, which should not exceed E1 (no exceeding the minimum permissible formaldehyde content).
3. Chipboard is the cheapest material made from pressed chips; before purchasing, you should definitely check the certificate of conformity. In such products, the concentration of formaldehyde is usually exceeded.
4. Metal - usually aluminum or steel - is strong and durable, but expensive and heavy in weight.

Product safety

The fact that children's furniture must meet safety criteria is undeniable.

Let’s take a closer look at how to choose the right crib for a newborn:

1. For babies from birth to three years old, choose cribs with protective sides that will protect the baby from falling. The optimal distance between the slats will be six to seven centimeters wide - this way neither the child’s head nor limbs will be harmed.
2. For greater safety, many parents buy soft protective sides made of fabric and equipped with a thick layer of foam rubber. They are attached to all sides of the bed and protect the baby from possible impacts.
3. All components must be well fitted and fit tightly together, leaving no gaps or gaps. This will ensure safety for the baby and protect the crib from loosening the structure.
4. When choosing a sleeping place, you should take into account its shape - it should not narrow downwards, otherwise the child will be able to turn the bed over. Also, the lower the center of gravity, the more stable the product.
5. Cribs for babies have several height levels from the bottom - from two to five. This provides convenience when caring for a newborn. The upper position is for the little ones, the lower one is suitable for older children, and the intermediate ones are set as the baby grows. The important point is to change the levels in time in order to prevent the baby from falling out. To understand which crib to choose for a small child, you need to look at how many positions it has - the more, the better.
6. Wheels make it easy to move the bed around the room. Along with this, there is also some danger of instability if the child is overly active. To prevent undesirable consequences of this, special wheel clamps are used. The same can be said about swing bars.
7. Mandatory conditions include grinding the crib parts to avoid splinters and rounded corners. There may or may not be a coating with a safe substance (paint or varnish).
8. The bed should not have parts that can be easily unscrewed or removed to avoid injury or ingestion.
9. After purchase, the product must be unpacked, wiped with a damp cloth and left in a ventilated area, if it has an odor, until it has completely evaporated.

What to consider during the selection process

In addition to the main points when purchasing, it is worth considering minor design features.

When choosing, you should adhere to a few simple rules:

1. Choose furniture made of wood.
2. The design should not contain sharp elements or corners.
3. The textile component must be made of natural material.
4. A bunk bed for children should be strong and reliable.
5. There should be no bolts, strips, or other elements that a child can tear off or unscrew.

A bed for 2 children does not have to be a bunk bed. Recently, transformable beds with two sleeping places have become popular.

Rocking bed

Currently, there is no consensus on whether it is worth rocking babies to sleep. Some say that it is harmful due to addiction and, in addition, the child may cry for serious reasons and they need to be identified. Others argue that motion sickness is completely harmless - the baby gets used to it in the womb and this makes the process of calming him easier.

If you don't know which crib to choose, customer reviews can help in this difficult matter. As a rule, many young parents say that they purchased a rocking crib and are quite satisfied with their purchase.

The motion sickness process occurs due to two main design features of the product mechanism.

They are:

1. Skids. They are removable, arched plates that are attached to the legs of the crib. When the need for motion sickness no longer exists, they are replaced with wheels or simply removed. The process follows the rocking chair principle. When using runners, you should always have special stoppers at hand so that, if necessary, you can fix the stationary position of the berth.
2. Pendulum. The design of such a crib involves hanging it on special straps, which allow it to be rocked in two directions - longitudinal (left-right) or transverse (back-and-forth), depending on the design of the pendulum mechanism. There are also universal pendulum devices that swing in two directions.

Before choosing a crib for newborns with a pendulum, you need to decide on its location, since for the mechanism to work, there must be at least fifteen centimeters in width or length (depending on the design).

In addition, we should not forget the possibility of fixing the crib from rocking the structure when the child grows up.

Choosing a mattress and bedding

It is important not only to know which crib to choose for your child, but also to decide on the accessories for it, because the baby’s comfort and restful sleep depend on this. Below we will consider what requirements must be observed when purchasing accessories for a sleeping place.

Modern industry offers several types of children's mattresses:

• Cotton or foam rubber are the most budget option;
• with natural filler - based on the presence of a soft layer of foam rubber or foam, as well as filling, they have different hardness;
• orthopedic - have a special design with or without springs - the most preferred, but also the most expensive option.

To know how to choose a mattress for a crib, you need to consider the following rules:

1. The most important thing is that the product must match the size of the bed. If the dimensions are too small, the baby will get caught in the gaps, and if they are too large, the mattress will be deformed and will be uncomfortable, which will disturb the baby’s sleep.
2. The mattress should not be too soft - this will distort the baby’s immature spine. The main requirement is a smooth and optimally hard surface.
3. The internal filling of the product is of great importance. A filling made only of cotton wool will not last too long and will form clumps, but foam rubber is not hygroscopic and the baby will sweat. If your budget is limited, you can purchase such mattresses, but then you need to fluff the cotton one from time to time, and the foam rubber one – often ventilate and dry it.
4. If you prefer the average price option - mattresses with fillers, then good options would be products containing woolen threads, horsehair, coconut fibers, dried seaweed or felt. They should not have any strong foreign odors and be sold with quality certificates.
5. A mandatory addition to the mattress is a waterproof sheet, on one side of which there is a cotton layer, as well as a cover that must be washed regularly.

It is also necessary to know not only how to choose the right crib, it is also important to understand that babies under one year old are not given a pillow at all - it is enough that there is a diaper folded in four under their head. After twelve months, low baby pillows are purchased, preferably orthopedic, providing a smooth, but not hard surface.

Bedding for a children's bed is chosen only natural: cotton, terry or flannel.

Types of fall protection

Not all designs include barriers for cribs. And if you previously bought a crib without the necessary equipment, then you can make it yourself. There are several options for crib bumpers that you can easily make yourself:

• Wooden crib safety barriers are the most reliable option. Such a product will fit quite harmoniously into the overall appearance of the crib and at the same time such protection will protect the child from falling during sleep.
• Fabric soft sides. They are used independently or in combination with wooden sides. Fabric products are quite simple to make; the main thing is to use special materials and fillers that can fully perform the protective function. As a rule, such bumpers in a crib are used for babies who have not yet turned one year old, and for a short period after turning one year old.

Additional equipment

To understand how to choose the right crib for a newborn, you need to know that these products may have additional elements besides the sleeping place itself.

Let's consider what the design of cribs most often provides for:

1. Box for things. This addition, according to parents, is a truly necessary item. Thanks to this, you will always have play equipment, bedding, diapers, rompers, diapers and other necessary things at hand. This element in some models is replaced by a bedside table.
2. Some products are equipped with built-in or detachable cabinets, on top of which there is a changing table. These are very comfortable models, but you need to remember that they require more space than classic beds.
3. Another important element is the silicone protective corners and linings on the railings - they will protect the product from damage, and the baby from swallowing bitten pieces when teething.
4. It’s not bad when the crib has removable elements on the side walls - they can be removed so that an older baby can get into and out of bed independently. Or it allows you to remove the side panel and move the bed to the parent's sleeping place.

The more extensive the equipment a model has, the more expensive it is. After carefully studying the nuances described above, it will be easier for parents to understand which crib is best to choose. Everyone will be able to decide according to their preferences and financial capabilities.

Main types of cribs

A children's bed is a serious purchase, so you need to approach it with all responsibility. So that later you don’t have to complain that it doesn’t fit in size, age, or doesn’t look good in the interior.

In order to decide which and which company to choose a crib for, you need to consider the main types of these products, their pros and cons.

The types of cribs are as follows:

1. Cradle. Designed for babies from birth to six months. Depending on the size of the baby, it can be used until the age of one year. These are compact, easy to move models measuring 970x550 mm. Material of manufacture: plastic or wicker. Models can be closed or attached, with one open or removable side.
2. Traditional bed. Suitable for use from birth to three years of age, traditional sizes are 1200x600 mm. Made from wood or metal.
3. Transformable beds. Depending on the size, they are used up to seven or twelve years of age. They are made from pressed materials and are transformed over time into a school teaching space. They are functional models that include a linen closet and a changing table.
4. Manege. They are used from birth until the age of three, but with weight restrictions. These are lightweight structures with textile sides that combine sleeping and playing space.

After studying this material, it becomes clear which crib to choose from the age of 3, and which one is suitable from birth until this age. After all, a baby’s sleeping place should always be comfortable and convenient.

Varieties

Children's beds from 2 years old with sides can be of different varieties.

The classic model is a rectangular bed with 4 legs. Sides can be installed both along the entire perimeter of the bed and half its length. Often the manufacturer places drawers underneath in which the child can store his things and toys. Additional drawers can be located on the sides of the bed. It is worth noting that the presence of drawers between the floor and the base of the bed prevents dust from accumulating under the bed.

The loft bed is distinguished by the fact that the sleeping place is raised up to a level of 1 to 1.5 meters, and under it there can be a play, sports or work area. On such a model, the presence of high sides is mandatory. It is also necessary that the stairs are comfortable and non-slip.

First of all, a bed for two-year-old children should be equipped with sides.

Lately, sliding beds have been gaining popularity. They allow you to increase the length of the bed as your baby grows. It is worth noting that due to the long design life, manufacturers use the most durable materials and reliable mechanisms in such beds.

A side board installed on half of the bed will, in most cases, prevent the child from falling down.

Bed bumpers can be of several types:

• soft;
• made of wood or plastic;
• removable.

Advantages and disadvantages

Let's look at the pros and cons of various crib designs. This will help you understand how to choose a crib.

And now in more detail:

1. Cradles or cradles. It is believed that their narrow design makes the baby's stay similar to the mother's womb and does not frighten him. Equipped with a rocking mechanism (manually or automatically), as well as a special handle for carrying with the baby. The product is installed either on a stationary base or suspended in a traditional children's bed with straps. Stationary models can be placed next to the parent's bed. The advantages include compact size, mobility and ease of use. Disadvantages - high cost and quick change to a large size product.
2. Classic cribs. A common budget option with limited functionality. Typically supplied with swinging skids and wheels. The level of the bottom and side wall is height adjustable. Higher-priced models have linen drawers and a pendulum mechanism. The advantages of such cribs include standard sizes, allowing you to easily select accessories, low price and simplicity of design (rarely breaks). Disadvantages: the product is bulky and has minimal functionality.
3. Transformable beds. These are quite bulky products that combine a sleeping place and a chest of drawers, equipped with a changing table. As the child grows, they transform into a teenage bed with a table and bedside table. It is believed that their use is advisable from the age of three to seven, but if you have a sufficient budget, such a purchase can be made from birth. In this case, you won’t have to return to this topic for many years. The advantages of these models are their functionality, stylish design, long-term use, but the disadvantages include high cost and narrow sleeping space for a teenager - only sixty centimeters.
4. Manege. This is a foldable product that will be indispensable not only at home, but also when traveling. The parts are aluminum and plastic, the covering is textile. Thanks to this, the crib is very light and easy to clean. In addition, it is spacious and functional; for convenience, there is a clasp on the side that an older child can unfasten independently. According to customer reviews, the model is valued for its lightness, maneuverability and convenience. The disadvantages include the instability of the structure, the lack of motion sickness function and rigid ribs, and single-level models have a base that is too low.

Comfortable bed models for children of different ages

For newborns, cradles or playpens are chosen. Beds with wheels are good - they are mobile, which means the baby can sleep next to his mother all the time. Removable walls with rods, an add-on in the form of a changing table, a special mount for a canopy or hanging toys - all these are additional devices that make life much easier for parents.

Crib with canopy for children up to 2-3 years old

Models with a hanging cradle are also good - it is believed that newborn babies fall asleep best in a cozy, confined space. The cradle will be needed for a maximum of one year, after which the baby will happily move into the playpen.

Changing table next to the crib

As for the mattress, orthopedic rigid structures are preferred - for example, with a layer of coconut coir. And don’t forget that babies under 2 years old don’t need a pillow.

Beds for preschoolers

If a playpen is a place to relax, sleep and play, then a preschooler’s bed is a place to sleep. Therefore, the most important requirement for a sleeping place is comfort. It is also necessary to select a model in accordance with the child’s height - standard sizes are 70 cm wide and 140-150 cm long . The aesthetics, safety of injuries and environmental friendliness of the purchased material must be assessed.

Do not forget that correctly selected furniture shapes a child’s ideas about beauty. Therefore, it is necessary to take into account the preferences of the baby himself - ask what colors and shapes he likes, and try to follow the “instructions”.

Bed with table for preschooler 4-5 years old

After all, the choice of children's beds is huge, and you can easily find a cute model - from classic carved designs to thematic complex shapes like a car, a ship or steamship, a carriage or a limousine.

Table-bed with drawers in the form of steps

From a technical point of view, a bed for a preschooler should be:

• a flat and rigid base made of slats or a solid chipboard;
• hard mattress - based on coconut shavings or a Bonnell spring block;
• limiters, sides;
• drawers.

There are also entire furniture complexes where the sleeping area is only part of the structure. These are loft beds, where on the ground floor there is a work desk, a sofa or wardrobe, a sports corner, and on the second floor there is the bed itself.

Baby cot for children

The correct choice of bed begins with the selection of a suitable model (in terms of size and functionality), and then the desired color scheme is selected in accordance with the existing interior.

Beds for schoolchildren

As soon as your child reaches school age, he will need a classic single bed. It can be 70-90 cm wide and 190-200 cm long . The fundamental selection criteria are functionality and quality.

Advice. It is better to choose a universal design designed to last for several years of use. Let the child’s favorite theme live on the bed linen, and laconic forms are desirable in the bed. You don't want to change this furniture every year, do you?

Bed for a schoolchild

For schoolchildren's beds, strict shapes and monochrome colors are preferred (maximum two colors combined on the facades). All kinds of transforming, retractable, two-story structures are popular in this segment.

This can be a bed-wardrobe or a loft bed, thanks to which space is significantly saved. And the interior turns out to be obviously harmonious, because all the elements are designed in the same color and style.

As for the mattress, it should be smooth and hard, preferably with natural filling. It can be latex, coconut or felt. If you use mattresses with a spring block, choose a dependent block, the “Bonnel” type.

Loft bed with desk below

Independent “soft” springs are harmful to a child’s spine. You can achieve softness and comfort for a child's sleeping place using a multi-layer mattress (with layers of felt or latex) or an additional feather mattress cover.

Beautiful loft bed in classic style

Special designs for two children

If there is a bedroom for two children in one room, then a bunk bed is ideal. Here the main selection criterion is safety, because such a furniture set is often used by children not only for sleeping, but also for playing. Therefore, such beds must be equipped with high sides for a sleeping place on the second floor, handrails on the stairs and a durable bottom.

Design for two children

Transformable, folding furniture is no less functional - with pull-out sections and additional add-ons.

Bunk bed

By the way, sometimes parents generally refuse to purchase children's beds and immediately buy an “adult” model, which is equipped with the “correct” mattress. It is interesting that this approach does not cause any protests from children, because they always want to become adults as quickly as possible.
