Bunk beds for kids have been a popular option for families for decades, especially those in tight spaces. Toddler bunk beds are an excellent option if you’re looking to make the most of a small bedroom.

So, if you’ve got a toddler and a child 6+ bunk beds could be an ideal sleep situation that saves space and adds functionality to a room.
