There is something about loft beds that kids are just crazy about. Maybe it’s the elevated structure which is reminiscent of a tree house and brings with it a flair of adventure, a sense of freedom and independence. Or maybe they just love to climb and play on pretty much anything (okay, there’s no maybe here). Then again, maybe kids love how a loft bed opens up the space and makes room for some useful furniture underneath — no, wait, it’s the parents who love that one.
Anyway, whatever the reason may be, loft beds are considered cool by kids and practical by parents which makes for one of those rare occasions when the two worlds converge and the decision is made unanimously: we must get one.
On this page you can find a selection of loft beds made by companies that specialize in kids furniture. Most of these come equipped with accessories and extensions designed to either boost the fun factor — such as a tent or a slide — or add on the functionality — such as desk stations and storage units. You’ll notice some low lofts suitable for younger children, and also some products that are fitted with stairs for the safest possible access to the lofted bed.
Loft Beds For Kids With Under Bed Curtain
Adding a tent to close off the under bed area can greatly enhance the whole loft bed experience. Note that these tents usually consist of one front curtain and one side curtain, so you’ll have to place the bed in a corner to create a completely secluded area.
Loft Beds For Kids With Slide
Installing a slide might just help with getting your kid out of bed in the morning. These do take some space, though, so make sure there’s enough of it in your room before taking a plunge.
Kids Loft Beds With Slide And Tent
Or, why not just go for both: a combination of slide and tent for the ultimate fun time. These beds come in different finishes, while the tents are available in different colors and designs.
Loft Beds For Children With Slide And Stairs
A staircase for safe ascending and a slide for descending in style.
Kids Loft Beds With Stairs And Tent
These are all about safety. The stairs are there to help the kids safely access the sleeping area, while the tent is creating their safe haven underneath.
Loft Beds For Children With Tent And Canopy
The canopy up top is a natural extension to the tent down below and it seems like oh so much fun, but it will not make it easier for you to make the bed.
Castle Loft Beds For Kids
If you are seriously considering the canopy, why not take it to the max and afford your kid the whole castle/princess loft bed experience. These almost always come with a slide too.
Loft Beds For Children With Desk
Moving from fun to function. When the time comes for school, these will be more appropriate. Although that Powell metal loft looks more like it’s made for gaming rather than studying. But then, why wouldn’t it be good for both.
Loft Beds For Kids With Storage
Loft beds are made for accommodating storage. And, as you can see, it is definitely possible to combine that practical aspect of theirs (storage drawers or bookcases) with the fun aspect (a secret hideout underneath).
