Most children find bunk beds to be exciting.
Even two children that are having a hard time getting along together will gladly sleep in the same room if they can sleep in these types of beds; although be ready for more than a few fights about who gets to sleep on top.
Many parents are often unsure about whether or not they should get them for their children.
You may have heard horror stories concerning children being severely injured while playing around this type of bed.
Despite what you may have heard, they are perfect for any family with two or more children.
First of all, they are extremely efficient for families that can't afford a house or apartment where each child can have a room of his or her own.
Instead of taking up over half of a room's space trying to include two beds you can get one and have two beds for the space of one.
Your children will be happy for the novelty the bunk beds provide and enjoy the increased space they have as well.
Many children in cramped rooms tend to use their beds as toys or indoor trampolines.
With a bunk bed you children will have more room to play normally indoors.
This does bring up the topic of safety.
Almost all children will immediately notice the climbing capabilities.
Even if you have the prissiest daughter in the world, you will likely find her climbing on the bunk bed at one time or another.
They are only as safe as you make them which means having the proper safety measures installed with the bed and teaching your kids how to safely use it.
The main safety measures you want to have installed are guardrails on the top bunk.
Ideally, you want these guardrails to cover the entire perimeter of the top bunk or at least the long sides in order to keep your child from rolling out of bed while he or she is sleeping.
These guardrails should sit about five to six inches higher than the surface of the bed that is placed on the top bunk.
Start teaching your children how to safely use a bunk bed before you even purchase one.
Teach them not to climb up or down the bed without using the ladder to greatly reduce the chances of them injuring themselves.
This may not stop your child from climbing on the bunk bed altogether, boys will be boys, but it will hopefully get them to think twice about misusing the bunk bed.
Save yourself and your children some room and get a bunk bed today.
