Children bed sizes (lemm.ee)

I’m just coming back from checking on my sleeping 2.5yo. Now he’s turned 90degrees, taking up most of the considerable width his bed provides.

My children all use a lot of space while sleeping, turning this and that way. None of them can sleep in a standard 90x140cm bed size that’s standard for smaller children. These beds are useless for us.

How is it for you?

I started my kid on a full sized bed and called it a day. That will be big enough for her to share with a friend and/or cousin until she's an adult and out of my house. She slept wild in it at that age, but she sleeps mostly correctly in it now at 4. although dead in the center. Perhaps by 8 she'll have a favorite side and the answer won't be "why not both" lol
