Cabin Beds and Bunk Beds

Although cabin beds are the best possible choice from my point of view (what can I say, I just love them) there are times when bunk beds are simply the more suitable choice of children beds. Considering that cabin beds for boys and cabin beds for girls are very practical because they provide the extra storage space it is somewhat odd I would recommend bunk beds when in fact you haven’t enough room. The reason for this is simple as with lack of space I mean the situation when there are two (or more) children in one room and there isn’t enough space for two cabin beds.

A bunk bed comes extremely handy in these situations considering you only use the same amount of floor area as if there was only a single bed in the room considering the other bed is on the top of the first. Children cabin beds cannot be placed in the same manner considering there would be no more space for the storage any more and that really ends the purpose of having a children’s cabin bed.

You should keep in mind though that your child should by no means feel the lack of the fun factor simply because you had to choose a bunk bed over a cabin bed. There are ways to decorate and improve bunk beds as well. Just because there is no storage room doesn’t mean you shouldn’t turn a bunk bed into a car for boys or into a doll house for girls. Use your imagination, some wood and colours and create a cabin bed lookalike. Let your children help you decorating it and make it a days of fun for an entire family. With a bit of creativity the end product will be just as much fun as a children’s cabin bed.
