There are many reasons you might be looking to upgrade your child’s bed. It could be that they’ve recently outgrown their current bed and need something a bit more suitable, perhaps you’ve moved home and it’s the ideal opportunity to get something new, or maybe you want to make more storage in the space. No matter the reason, if you are in the process of upgrading your child’s room, a divan bed is an easy choice.

They provide plenty of storage

The best thing about having a divan bed is the storage it creates. With built-in drawers or ottoman bases, they make the dead space that would usually just be used for shoving things under, something that is really useful. You can add storage boxes or dividers and label the space depending on what is going under there if you want to be super organised! You could use it for everything from tidying about their toys, books, clothes or anything else that makes the room cluttered. Not only will this help the room feel tidy and less cluttered, but it will also seem bigger and can help your little one learn about being organised. It’s a win win!

They’re great for maximising the space you have

Traditional beds are not known for being the most sleek of designs and with their bulky slats, headboards and frames they can take up a lot more space than just the mattress does alone. Divan beds are much more streamlined, with no bulky frame to stick out and take up space in the room. This means they’re great for maximising the space you have and can fit into any space. Whether you want the bed tucked away in the corner against a wall or in the centre of a wall, they are built to adapt to any space and look fantastic at the same time!

They are built to last

Divan beds are not a bed type that is made lightly. With solid bases, they’re well-built, not flimsy and are built to last. This makes them a much more economical choice than other bed types and means you can use it for years to come and even hand it down to other siblings once your current child doesn’t need it anymore. If you don’t have anyone to give it to, it’s likely to still be in a good enough condition to sell second-hand, so you can make some money out of it too!

They can adapt to any space

Being stylish and neat, divan beds are great for adapting to any space. No matter the gender of your child, what they like and are interested in, or what style they want for their room, a divan bed is guaranteed to fit in. Coming in a range of colours, you can choose one that will be versatile, or just let your child pick one that they love. Being such a simple shape, the beds will also fit into any sort of room and can do well in both small and large rooms. 

These are just a few reasons why divan beds are an ideal choice in a child’s room. When looking to add extra space, make their room that little bit more grown up and implement some more storage, it really is an effortless choice. You can get your child to pick their duvet cover out and have an input in the design of the room – this is also a great way to try and have them keep it tidy!
