Toddler Bed Furniture

Toddler bed furniture can assume many forms. The typical styles are the standard toddler bed, storage toddler bed, car toddler bed, sleigh toddler bed, day bed style for toddlers and the princess toddler bed. All toddler beds will use a standard crib mattress and are considered suitable for children from 18 months to about 5 years. Fifty pounds is the recommended weight limit. A typical feature of toddler bed furniture will be built-in protective side rails that start at the head of the bed and enclose about the top third of the bed. This is to prevent dangerous roll-outs in a child's sleep. Also the toddler bed will be lower to the floor to prevent injury from falls.

The standard toddler bed will look like a miniature adult twin size bed. Typically the frame is craft out of wood with a conventional-looking headboard and foot with the side rails as slats or solid panels. The storage toddler bed may look very much like a standard bed, but has the extra feature of a drawer under the mattress. The drawer is usually separated in two compartments. A drawer under the bed is very handy if you had the same feature in the crib you are replacing. The toddler sleigh bed is also a miniature version of the adult bed of the same style. It looks very classy and is preferred by parents who like to buy something that looks like real furniture. The toddler day bed also looks like a miniature of the adult day bed with the addition of a protective rail that covers at least half of the open side. For the very active sleeping child, this style would afford the most protection from roll-outs since the bed is completely enclosed on three sides and half of the fourth. All the above styles of beds are available in many types of wood finishes, so they will go well with dresser drawers, side tables or any other furniture you may already own.

The princess toddler bed and the car toddler bed are beds that are like something out of a child's dream. Some are crafted out of wood and some are made from molded PVC plastic with steel supports. The princess bed is nearly always pink with decorative princess-type designs painted on it. Sometimes the bed posts are extra tall and some beds have a canopy. The car bed is shaped to look like a race car and usually comes in the color red, with decorative touches such as racing stripes and a number. Similar to the car bed, there are also fire truck beds and bulldozer beds and other things on wheels.

In addition to the bed itself there are certain peripheral furniture pieces, you may want to consider adding to your child's bedroom. You can buy matching toy boxes, book shelves and bed side tables. Sometimes there is also a play table and chair set that is fun for snack time or coloring art time. For the princess toddler bed you can also find matching vanity tables with mirror and stool.
