When it comes to choosing the ideal bed for your child, safety and comfort are paramount. For many families, bunk beds provide a space-saving solution that can also be a fun addition to a child’s bedroom. However, many parents often wonder, “What is the right age for my child to sleep in a bunk bed?” Let’s dive into this question and explore our fantastic range.

What Age Should a Child Sleep in a Bunk Bed?

The general consensus among safety experts is that children under the age of 6 should not sleep on the top bunk. The reason is straightforward: younger children may lack the motor skills and judgement to navigate the ladder and might be at a higher risk of falls. However, this doesn’t mean they can’t enjoy a bunk bed! At Funky Bunk Beds, we offer designs where younger children can safely sleep on the bottom bunk, especially with the added safety features.
