50 Beds That Your Children Will Want To Have In Their Own Bedrooms

When it comes to decorating your child's bedroom, perhaps the most important furniture piece to decide upon is the bed. The appearance of the bed frame and bedding will make a massive difference in the atmosphere of your child's room. 

According to Visual Hunt, factors like age, your child's interests, and the purpose of the room may determine what bed you choose. For instance, a loft design with a desk underneath would be better for a child in school, while one that has a clear theme may be more fun for a younger kid. When determining which design is right for your child, you'll need to consider whether a regular bed, a loft, a bunk bed, or a daybed would be best. Additionally, you'll also have to consider if your kid needs additional storage space and how the bed you choose could help meet that need.

If you're trying to decide on the right bed for your child, below are 50 options they're sure to love. 

Best for the child who wants a nature or woodsy-themed room, a wooden bed frame is a simple choice that will make the room feel cozier. 

If your child's room is small and lacks storage space, you could choose a bed with built-in drawers. These could hold things like toys and clothes. 

A wooden tent frame over a bed would be great for the child who loves camping or being outside. It would add a touch of fun without being over the top. 

Just like a wooden tent frame, one that's white would also be great for the child who loves camping or the outdoors. A white frame looks best when designed in a room with colorful wall paint. 

If your child often has sleepovers, or if two of your children share a room, you may consider getting a bunk bed. If their room is really cramped, you could choose one with lots of storage under the bottom bed and in the stairs. 

If your child loves bold colors, you could add a fun headboard to their bed setup. The above piece acts as a focal point in the mostly white room. 

Children who love to feel cozy or who want a princess-themed room may adore a canopy that's hung over the bed from the ceiling. 

A loft bed would provide a child with more floor space, as the space underneath the bed could be utilized as a play or study area. 

This simple bunk bed would be great for siblings or a child who loves having sleepovers. This setup could also be taken apart to become two separate twin beds, if desired.

The above gray upholstered headboard would be great for the child who loves to read or complete other activities in bed, as they would have a comfortable place to rest their back.

Placing a simple wooden bed frame underneath a fun mural is an easy way to jazz up your child's bed. 

The orderly child may prefer to have their bed centered in the room with two matching side tables on either side. You could also add a mural above this bed, like the rainbow in the image above. 

Instead of using an actual headboard in your child's space, you could use a small table or shelf. This would allow you to add a reading light directly above your child's head. 

The older child may prefer to use neutral tones in their bedding. If that's the case for your kid, you could pair a wooden bed frame with a dark and solid-colored comforter. 

Or, maybe your child loves a bright pop of color. In that case, the wooden bed frame would still work great, but add some fun colors through the bedding. 

A trundle bed is similar to a bunk bed but the bottom mattress slides out from underneath the top bed. This would be best for a child who has the occasional sleepover.
