A cot with drawers and a ledge, called a dolphin, is an excellent option for creating a separate comfortable and safe sleeping place for an adult child. It is low, practical, beautiful, has additional functionality and is very popular with children.
Features of the dolphin bed design
Children's bed-dolphin with drawers has increased functionality, allowing you to comfortably rest, store bed linen, clothes or toys, while its side protects the child from falling and guarantees him a calm and full sleep.
Thus, you can safely move the child from the arena to a more adult bed as soon as he grows up a bit and ceases to be an infant. Usually this happens around the age of 2 years. It is noteworthy that the sleeping place is not high, so that the kid can climb himself and go down from the bed, and if he decides to jump off it, he will not hurt himself.
On the side of the crib depicts a dolphin, which is very popular with children. This design makes the bed a harmonious detail of the interior of the children's room and at the same time its decoration.
The very edge is the child's protection against night falls, which is especially important if the child is spinning a lot. Even the most active kid will not go anywhere from the crib, and this is the best solution to the main problem, which often becomes a headache for the parents of hyperactive children .
In addition, the rim can be useful also during the day when the child is playing. It provides good protection against falling, if the baby has played and sat close to the edge of the bed.
The drawers are provided with a rolling mechanism - rails and wheels, which makes the process of using them as comfortable as possible. The depth of the boxes allows you to store in them quite a lot of textile products and toys of the baby.
With these boxes you can teach the child from the earliest childhood to accuracy, showing how to fold toys or clothes and remove them from the floor and other surfaces.
How to choose a children's bed-dolphin drawers?
When buying a similar bed model for a nursery, you need to pay attention to the material of manufacture. It is best if it is a wood, lacquered on a water basis. The mattress should also be as environmentally friendly and hypoallergenic. And necessarily orthopedic - every careful parent should remember about its usefulness for the immature pediatric spine.
Also, watch for the quality and reliability of the sliding mechanisms on the bed drawers. It is better that the surfaces of the wheels are rubberized, which will reduce the risk of damage to the floor by constantly opening / closing the boxes.
In addition to the mechanism on the wheels, there is a variant with runners that are located above the floor level and do not interfere with opening if the bed is on the carpet. This option is no less convenient than the wheels.
Depending on the age of the child, his height and the size of the room, you can buy a bed-dolphin of one size or another. For a two-year-old baby, there will be enough beds in length of 1.4 m and 70 cm in width. But if your child is older or you want to immediately buy a bed "for growth", you can look at the model with a length of 2.3 m and a width of 85 cm.
And, of course, in the process of choosing a bed, you need to take into account the sex of the child, his tastes and the design of the children's room. Today, dolphin beds are available in a wide range of colors, and the surface texture of the main body parts can be glossy or matte. Accordingly, you can always find the right model for the coloring and design, which will surely suit your child and harmoniously enter the atmosphere of his room.
