Cabin Beds and Mid Sleepers
Mid-sleepers and cabin beds are great for children because they bring a little extra excitement to the bedtime. They can transform into play spaces or dens, and even crafting areas!
Mid sleepers are less slender and have a lower ladder or staircase than high sleepers. They are therefore ideal for children who are younger. Some also come with impressive storage solutions like shelves, drawers and cube bookcases.
Space-Saving
The majority of bedrooms for children are small, so maximising storage is important. Cabin beds or mid sleepers can be a great solution since they can provide plenty of storage space and are also a feature piece for the room. They usually include built-in storage underneath like drawers or shelves, which allows them to be used in a variety of ways. Some of our kids cabin beds have a sofa area underneath which is perfect for relaxing and reading a book or having a sleepover with friends.
If your children have many toys or games that they wish to keep, we offer a wide selection of cabin beds with useful pull-out wardrobes that allow them access to a complete set of drawers. All of their books, clothes, and toys can be conveniently stored away. This will allow them more room to play. We have a wide range of stylish open and closed wardrobes so that they can create their own style for their space.
A kids mid sleeper is slightly different to the cabin bed as they are slightly higher off the ground and come with or without the use of a ladder or steps. This is ideal for kids who are ready to move up from a single bed. It can make them feel more confident while being secure enough to use the stairs. If you're looking for something more than a mid-sleeper look into our high sleeper options.
We suggest that children are at minimum 6 years old before they can use the top bunk of a high sleeper or mid sleeper. However, it is always worth checking on the specific product information pages as manufacturers may have their own safety guidelines. Jumping from the top of a cabin bed is also discouraged, as it can cause structural damage and injuries to your child.
midi bed and mid-sleeper beds are great for securing space in the bedroom of a child and can be modified to meet their changing needs. They can easily be converted into a table or seating space, or even a fun crafting station. This can help your child keep their bedroom clean and tidy while they are playing or studying.
Fun for All Ages
A cabin bed can take the fun of a kid's bedroom to the next level, offering both storage and play in a single space. These raised beds maximize the floor space, but don't make your children feel like they live in the middle of a forest. They can be a lifesaver for families with limited space.
Mid-sleeper and cabin beds come in a variety of designs which include shelves, drawers or cupboards to help your children keep their items organized. This keeps their bedroom tidy and free of clutter, eliminating the temptation to take their toys out of their reach - or worse still in their bed!
If your child wants to be a bit imaginative with their furniture we have options that allow them to transform their bed into a den or even a secret place to stay. Some of our beds for mid-sleepers feature a slide for a fun entry and exit.
You might also consider a bed that has an integrated desk or other storage options, depending on your child's specific requirements. Our mid sleeper range includes some with pull out desks ideal for children who want to do homework or need an area to study and relax.
Mid-sleeper and cabin beds are suitable for children of all ages. However, they're especially ideal for kids aged between 10 and 14. At this age, your kids have more to do, so they may prefer the space under their mid-sleeper bed to use as an area for study or storage space for notebooks and pens ready for school.
It's important to check the product's details for any safety guidelines. Manufacturers generally suggest a minimum age of 6 years for an adult who sleeps in the middle or high position. Many children are ready for the cabin bed earlier particularly if it's built with safety and adventure in mind. Some of our cabin beds for children include a mattress protector that will aid in protecting your investment.
It can be converted into a Single Bed
Many of the cabin beds and mid sleepers we sell can be converted into one. This is a great option if your child outgrows their bunk bed or wants to change the arrangement of their bedroom. The ladder can be taken down and replaced with a solid bed frame to give your child a fresh appearance in their bedroom and the best night's rest.
Many mid-sleeper beds offer many storage options to help keep your child's room neat and organized. It can be a pull-out desk that has cubby storage, which is perfect for a study corner or open shelves for storing books and toys. Some models have fun play tents that can be used to unwind in a room or play.
They can also include shelves with hooks to replace a bedside. It is a great place to store a lamp, a book or if your child is a reader in the bed. With a little imagination, your children can turn the area beneath their beds into a cozy space to relax in all through the night!
However, it is important to keep in mind that children shouldn't ever jump off a high sleeper or bunk bed as this can damage the structure. A cabin bed or mid-sleeper is a better option since it was constructed with safety in mind. They are usually equipped with sturdy guardrails to prevent any accidents that happen during the night.
As we all know, space in a child's room is small, and this could mean that their clothes and toys can quickly become out of control. A lot of cabin beds and mid sleeper beds we offer come with storage options. Underbed drawers are ideal to store clothes and shoes, while cubby storage is a great way to store books, toys, and trinkets. Some beds with a mid-sleep feature with a pull-out desk that is perfect for an area for studying and will keep your child's room neat and organized.
Ideal for sleepovers
A space-saving cabin bed or a mid sleeper is not just great when your child is having friends over, but it can also serve as the perfect sleeping quarters when they have a cousin or sibling staying with them occasionally. A lot of our cabin and mid sleeper beds are equipped with an array of furniture options under them, including desks, drawers, shelves and more so that the space under your kids' beds can be used in any way that they would like.
Many of our bunk beds and mid-sleeper models have elegant play tents and tunnels that can be hidden beneath the bed. This is a fantastic spot for your kids to read or relax, or have sleepovers. If your child is a keen learner, you can also find beds with a mid-sleeper that have pull out desks that they can use to finish their homework and put them back under the bed when they're done.
Another thing you can do at a sleepover is to have a gooey finger painting session. You can purchase a variety of different paints from most art stores and then let your little one's imaginations get wild. It's an excellent opportunity to bond with your child and the final products will make great keepsakes.
You can also capture some funny photos at an evening with your friends by setting up a booth, and then encouraging them to dress in their best outfits. You can then choose the top photos and print them for everyone to take home.
For a more active and energetic activity, you could organize a pillow fight for your children and their friends. The rules are simple - each player has a pillow that they try to hit their opponent with as many times as they can without it landing on them. This is an exciting and competitive game that is sure to bring laughter.
You can also enjoy the stars in a more peaceful way with your children and their friends. Find a location with an unobstructed view of night sky and has no light pollution. Then, get your guests to sit down with some blankets and pillows before beginning. You can then look at the constellations, try to identify them or simply enjoy the view.
