11. Sleep And Store Beds For Children
from:A baby or a child in the house means more household work since the nature of their existence requires providing constant attention to them and repetitive work like clearing up spills and crumbs and frequent arrangement of the books or toys that have been thrown all over the house. Large homes which have dedicated rooms exclusively for the children are the worst hit and you may sometimes need to employ a housekeeper to manage the household activities. In such cases, the furniture chosen to furnish the rooms might help in some manner. Though the magnitude of the attention required and the work load will not scale down, the trivial work will definitely lessen.
Children’s storage beds can be true saviors especially with more than one child in the house. They serve the dual purpose of providing a place for your little one to slumber peacefully and at the same time stock up all the toys in its storage compartments. These beds come with a smooth finish and are easy to assemble from scratch. A smooth finish ensures safety of the kids and the ease with which they can be assembled and dismantled makes shifting and transport easy if required. Storage beds are of various types and can be chosen, according to the requirement and ease with which they can be used.
A type of storage bed is one where the drawers can be pulled out from underneath the bed. These are generally preferred when the child is growing and is in the process of learning to walk. This type requires adequate space around to enable the drawers to be pulled out and so cannot be used in places where space is a constraint. The number of drawers and the structure of the internal compartment can vary and could be in the form of a single drawer spanning the entire area of the bed to 3 or 4 drawers dividing the space in an optimum manner.
The next kind of storage bed is the door type where a sliding door is used to access the lower part of the bed and its storage area. This can be used in rooms of smaller sizes and where the space is restricted. This has the disadvantage of limited access to the interior parts of the storage area. This style of door might however be dangerous for small kids and rigid to use.
Other types of storage beds involve bunkers and trunks with storage drawers arranged on the sides of the bed for storing smaller articles. The purpose remains the same in all the types of storage beds and that is to enable additional storage while maintaining its primary purpose of providing a place for sleeping.
