The form

It can be a double or single bed, loft bed, bed-cot, bed-lock. It can have legs, or it can be a solid bottom, it can be with a soft headboard or even a sofa bed. It is important that the form meets the needs of a particular girl and fits functional in a particular children's room.

Mattress

It can be soft or hard, made of synthetic or natural materials, with or without springs. Which one to choose depends on the age of the girl - mattresses used from 3 years old are very different from those that can be laid on a bed for a teenage girl.

Material

It could be wood, maybe metal, maybe chipboard. Different materials have different properties.

Color

When adults think about a bed for a girl, they often come up with something pink, airy, unusual, but a particular girl may not like the pink color at all and may not be suitable in a particular room, so you need to choose wisely, focusing on your own situation .

Additional functionality

Retractable beds, sofas, houses, beds with drawers, four-poster beds, large beds - the types of beds are diverse and each of them has its own characteristics. To choose one, the most suitable, you need to carefully read the options.

It may seem that the choice is complicated and overwhelming, but in fact it’s enough to give yourself the trouble to figure out to buy the very ideal bed that will satisfy both the girl and her parents.

The form

The very first thing you need to think about is the shape the bed should have. There are many options that can be divided into several groups.

Regular bed

It is not very original, has a bottom, legs, head. If necessary, it can be equipped with any additional functionality - under the bed you can equip drawers, make a canopy above the bed from above, put up the sides, attach a wardrobe.You can consider this option a classic that never expires and easily changes. However, some children may find it boring.

Shelter bed

It differs from the usual presence of an add-on over the bed in the form of a fabulous house, a witch’s tent, a castle or any other design that seemed to the designer quite successful. It is very convenient for games and, placed in the nursery with the correct design, can become an indispensable part of the interior. There is only one drawback - when a girl enters adolescence, asylum registration will most likely begin to seem silly to her and will have to change him.

Bunk beds

There are beds with a slide, on which a girl can slide down, there are ordinary stairs. There are two options:

  • directly bunk beds - a great solution for two girls (the main thing is that none of them are afraid of heights);
  • an attic bed for a girl is an excellent solution for a small room, because under a high bed you can place a desk, a bookcase with books or a place for games.

Extendable beds

In fact, sofas rather than beds, because when folded they look exactly like that. Well suited for small rooms - during the day they can be folded, providing a vacant seat and the resulting sofa for games. However, they are usually considered not too suitable for children, because they do not correspond to the level of convenience necessary for the child.

Convertible bed

It can turn into a sofa, a cupboard or a table for the daytime. For a small room, this is a great solution, however, expensive.

The basic rule that should be followed when choosing a form is interest in the desires of the child. The image of a princess haunts one girl and she will be happy if she gets a bed-lock for a girl. The other hates castles and princesses, but dreams of racing and will be delighted to get the opportunity to choose something in the category of "Children's beds-cars for girls." And even if it seems to adults that the castle looks ugly, and boys should be interested in cars, this is not a reason to choose a bed to your taste.

As well as choosing a bed for a teenager, you need to be guided by his wishes, even if the rock performers with whom the girl wants to decorate her seem terrible to their parents.

Mattresses

Unlike the form that you need to consult about, a mattress should be chosen without regard to the opinion of a child who is not yet able to clearly understand how one differs from the other. You need to be guided by the basic rules, at different periods the girl needs a different mattress.

For a newborn

It needs a hard mattress, because it is during this period that the bends of the spine are formed, and if the mattress is too soft, the process will go wrong and lead to problems.

From 3 years

Posture continues to form, but needs something else - at this stage, only the formed bends must be maintained in proper condition. A moderately hard mattress would be a good solution.

From 7 years

Posture is formed and the requirements for the mattress are no longer very strict. However, it still should not be too soft - this can damage the posture.

In addition to the stiffness parameters, there are other nuances that you need to pay attention to.

The size

Before you go to the store, you need to measure the bed. Otherwise, a too small mattress will constantly slide along the bottom, and too large will bend and lie crooked even on a bed with a soft headboard.

Material

Synthetic materials are considered not too suitable for children, because they can cause allergies, but cheap natural ones are often diluted with synthetics and can also be harmful. Usually choose:

  • polyurethane foam - a cheap, lightweight, resilient, but short-lived material;
  • latex - elasticity, resistance to mechanical damage and durability are complemented by a high price and the likelihood that the child will have an allergy;
  • coconut coir or flax - do not cause allergies, do not retain moisture, easily let air through, but are expensive and suitable only for small children, because they are very stiff.

Bed for teenage girl

It will also be useful to buy a mattress cover, this is especially true for a little girl with whom night trouble can still happen. In addition, care should be taken to:

  • there were no seams on the top of the mattress and mattress cover that could interfere with restful sleep;
  • the bottom of the crib was slatted, letting air through - this would not allow the mattress to whip;
  • the surface of the mattress remained flat - at the first appearance of dents, the mattress needs to be changed;
  • it is better if there will be more than one mattress covers - this will allow you to calmly wash them, changing them if necessary.

If everything was done correctly, the girl will be comfortable and quietly sleeping in a new bed.

Materials and color

It depends on the material how comfortable and pleasant it is for the child to sleep in bed (regardless of its design - whether drawers are pulled out from under it, whether it is equipped with a soft headboard) - each of them has its pros and cons.

Solid wood bed

A solid wood bed will be heavy, beautiful and very classic in appearance. She will have a noble ebb, comfortable lacquered details. Perhaps the faint smell of pine or oak will come from the massif, perhaps it will make an intricate carving.

Massive beds have a lot of advantages: they are durable, they are comfortable, they look perfect in any interior, they are pleasant to the touch. However, they also have cons - they are expensive and capricious. In a room with high humidity, you will have to monitor the general condition of the bed and periodically renew the varnish. If something spills on him, most likely a spot will remain.

Massive beds are well suited for teenagers who are much less careless than babies from 5 years and younger.

Chipboard bed

A chipboard bed will be light, cheap and also comfortable, but not too durable. Unlike an array bed, this type of crib is less resistant to damage and is unlikely to live all childhood with a child. Particleboard wears out, can creak, spots remain on it. But it is easy to replace and it can look no worse than a real tree.

Shod beds for girls

Metal beds are durable, it is almost impossible to break. They do not deform, do not suffer from humidity or temperature changes, but in winter they are cold to the touch. Always heavy and expensive. In addition, metal can not make a bed-house for a girl. The design of beds for girls of this type looks very classic and not too suitable for preschool and primary schoolgirls.

Extendable bed for the girl

In addition to the material, color is also important - it depends on it how much children's beds for girls will fit into the design. The following factors must be considered:

  • Compatibility Not all colors get along well with each other, so before buying a bed, you should find a combination table and see how well it fits.
  • Shades. Bright flashy colors are not suitable for the bedroom - they will interfere with sleep. Therefore, a car bed for a girl should not be too provocative, just like any other bed. Soft pastel shades, warm, fitting into the rest of the interior.
  • Style. For a bedroom in Provence style, a white bed with folds and lace is suitable, for hi-tech you need something more modern, for a fairy-tale fantasy, a white bed is only suitable if patterns, flowers or animals are painted on it.

The basic rule is compatibility. Beds for girls of 10 years (or 15, or 2) can be arbitrarily beautiful on their own, but not fit into a specific nursery. This must be remembered.

Additional functionality

Just a bed is good, but even better if it has additional features that you can use:

  • Boxes. A bed with a cupboard under the bottom is a great solution for a girl who has a lot of toys, clothes and interesting little things that need a place. This is especially true for small rooms in which it will simply not be possible to turn around with a closet. They can be of different shapes, even round ones - and they can also play an important role in the interior.
  • Canopy. The simplest answer to the question is how to decorate the bed. It has many advantages: firstly, it looks beautiful, secondly, in summer it can protect against flies and mosquitoes, and thirdly, it makes the girl feel like a real princess, even if she is only five. In addition, the canopy can hide the decoration of the room, toys, bright colors - this will allow the girl to relax before bedtime, even if the room looks so hard to fall asleep in it.
  • Beads. Beds for girls with skirts are a great solution for preschool girls, especially with restless sleep. The sides will protect the girl from falling, and in addition, can become part of her games and even a kind of decoration.
  • The second tier. The bunk bed for girls looks great and saves space in the room. In addition, the very process of sleeping on it can be an adventure for the girl, which will always be for her over the years.
  • Soft headboard. Beds with a soft headboard are good for creating comfort.

Whether parents choose teenage beds for girls, beds for almost adult girls or children’s beds - in any case, the bed should look great, its mattress should be comfortable and it should fit into the interior.
