Children's mid-sleepers may have built-in storage options that give your children more room to sprawl out and unwind. These beds often include the option of a pull-out desk, chest of drawers for storage or extensive shelving to accommodate toys and books. Some models, like the Julian Bowen Skye Playhouse mid sleeper - are even designed to look like a house or knight's fort that children can customize with windows, curtains and twinkly lights to give an extra-fun touch.
The majority of mid-sleepers for kids will have stairs or a ladder that aids in reaching the sleeping platform above. These are designed with wide treads and guardrails that make it easier for small children to climb.

A mattress that is soft is best for front sleepers or side sleepers, while a firmer mattress is more suitable for stomach and back sleepers. You can also find various mattresses that offer added benefits, such as anti-dust mite treatments as well as cooling properties that promote healthy rest. Some of these beds can accommodate pull out desks that provide a perfect study space.

Under-bed Storage
One of the main benefits of mid-sleeper cabin beds is that they offer numerous storage options. Contrary to high-sleeper and bunk beds which are raised to an extremely high level they usually sit just a few centimetres from the ground, which leaves plenty of space beneath to add furniture and other features. Drawers are the most obvious solution for under bed storage. These can run the full length of the bed, and be positioned at either end or even incorporate a space for tables for bedside. Find drawers that are able to fit into the divan base to create a neat and seamless look.
Woven baskets and drawers made of natural materials are a different under bed storage option worth taking into consideration. Woven fibres allow air to circulate and eliminate dampness or musty odours from keeping stored items fresh and safe.

These mid-sleepers are often made of solid hardwoods and come with ladders that comply with the strict safety standards. Look for designs that include guard rails on both sides of the upper bed or a bunk system to prevent entrapment hazards. Certain beds include a safety mesh that covers the mattress to give you extra peace of mind.
