Kids Beds

Yes, generally speaking, a 5-year-old is ready to transition from a toddler bed to a kids single bed. The transition can be important for both their physical comfort, as they may have outgrown the toddler bed, and for their development, as it provides a sense of growing up.

Toddler beds are specifically designed for young children who have outgrown their cots. They're low to the ground for safety and typically accommodate a toddler-sized mattress (approximately L 1310mm x W 690mm). On the other hand, kids single beds are larger and can accommodate a single bed mattress (L 1880mm x W 920mm), making them more suitable for older kids who need more space to sleep as they grow.

The average Australian bedroom measures roughly 7 square metres. This size is relatively spacious compared to bedrooms in other countries, offering enough room to comfortably accommodate a double bed, desk, and wardrobe.

Choosing the right bed size for your kid largely depends on their growth rate, sleeping habits, and the size of their bedroom. Consider their current age and how quickly they're growing to ensure the bed will comfortably accommodate them in the years to come. Additionally, take into account their bedroom's layout and other furniture needs to strike a balance between a sleeping area and a play or study space. Ultimately, the decision should be guided by your child's comfort and the functionality of the bedroom.

A kids king single bed accommodates a mattress measuring L 2040mm x W 1070mm, which is both longer and wider than that of a kids single bed, providing extra space to accommodate growth spurts.
