Choosing a bed for three children
Parents who have three children, inevitably decide on the proper layout of not only the children's room, but also the location of the beds. The boys are growing rapidly, and their comfort zones, characters, habits and interests are also changing. Considering practicality, reliability and preferences are the main tasks of caring parents. It is necessary to take into account the fact that such a design is bought for more than one year.
Durable coverings and bed material must endure not only the time of service, but also numerous overlaps, jumps, jumps and a lot more.
An important role is played by the gender of children, for whom a sleeping bed is bought. Preferences will be different if they are children of different sexes and different in age. This will affect the styling and design features. You can buy beds for three children, who will take into account the wishes of concerned adults, in a furniture store or order them in a design studio for individual sizes.
Options depending on the area of the room
The market offers a fairly large range of multi-level beds with different designs for kids. Basically, the difference in the choice of a particular design lies in the original area of the children's room. Different level and angle solutions will allow you to select the desired model.
If the living space allows, of course, the ideal option is to provide every child in the room. But it happens rarely and you have to invent a variant of the location of the children in the same room, where you need to place the beds, wardrobes, work and play areas.
So, the area of the room allocated for the nursery:
Spacious
- The linear arrangement of beds - if the area of the room is large, the best option. Children will be in equal planar conditions, which will not lead to division into places. Convenience is also due to the fact that it is possible to place additional individual storage boxes under the beds.
- Single beds can be installed in a checkerboard pattern, L or P-shaped.
Small
- Bunk beds with double bottom for another bed. The successful combination of horizontal and vertical location will solve many questions.

- The upper bed hangs over the lower, not completely overlapping (balcony).
- Three-tiered. Saves a lot of space and has all the kids during sleep.
- Double-beds with an additional transforming place (for example, a bed-chair), which make room for games and activities free.
- Fully movable in a row (matryoshka).
- Using podiums with retractable beds.
