For example, buying a stroller or providing your baby with his own sleeping place. Choice the right crib for a newborn - this is a rather difficult question, since modern manufacturers children's products are offered the widest range models of beds for children. In stores you can find compact cradles and large transformable beds that are suitable not only for infants, but also for primary school children.

It is important to understand that the bed is the place where the child will spend a significant part of his life. She must provide him comfortable conditions sleep, which plays one of the most important roles in the harmonious development of a healthy baby.

Dimensions of standard models

It is necessary to choose a children's bed in accordance with the age of the child, since its size directly depends on this. There are 4 main options for standard models designed for children of different age categories:

• for babies from birth to 3 years;
• for preschoolers;
• for schoolchildren;
• for teenagers.

The table below shows the dimensions of children's beds according to the child's age:

Tabular data meets standards domestic producers. For imported cribs - for example, German, Italian or Greek production, which are in great demand on the market, the dimensions are increased by 5-10 cm, but the classification remains the same. A crib from Italy and Germany, designed for a newborn, can have a length and width of 125 cm and 65 cm, respectively.

Types of children's beds and their characteristics

Over the past ten years, the range of cribs has grown exponentially. If previously it was represented by two or three models in different color scheme, then now each crib may be different:

• the presence or absence of wheels;
• the presence or absence of a pendulum mechanism;
• dimensions depending on the age of the child;
• number of children - they are already producing beds that are designed for two children.

Cradle

The cradle is designed for newborn babies from birth to 6 months. They are characterized by dimensions: 97 cm – length and 55 cm – width. This model is convenient because it does not require much space in the apartment, plus the height of such a children's bed is adjustable and can be installed according to needs. In addition, most bassinets lack parts that a baby could reach. They are upholstered with materials that are soft and harmless to the baby. Such children's beds usually have two types of fastening:

• ceiling;
• floor

When it comes to safety, floor furniture is preferable. The ceiling one loses in this matter. However, the choice remains with the parents.

The hanging cradle has been used since ancient times, but now its design has been improved

Rocking bed

The rocking crib model is based on the principle that large number Babies fall asleep well when they are rocked to sleep. Due to the fact that babies grow quickly and gain weight, it quickly becomes quite difficult to carry them in your arms - in this case, this kind of bed is perfect. The usual dimensions of such a children's bed are: 120 cm by 60 cm.

There are different models depending on the motion sickness mechanism used. The most popular is the model with runners, in which the entire structure moves, and not just the legs. Also a very convenient option would be a rocking bed with a pendulum that can be programmed. Thanks to the control panel, you can change the duration of motion sickness and its amplitude.

Attached models

Side bed sizes vary by age. For example, models for infants from 0 to 9 months are 90 cm long and 60 to 55 cm wide, but can be reduced to 40 cm if the design has a side border. A more universal model is a side bed, the dimensions of which are 120 by 60 cm. A baby can sleep on it up to the age of three.

Beds similar type different manufacturers may differ in external and internal parameters by 5-10 cm. The height of the children's bed of the attached model is approximately 80 cm, and its dimensions sleeping place range from 30 to 50 cm, the height should be set in accordance with the height of the bed on which the parents sleep.

Standard models and beds on wheels

The most common models with dimensions of 120 by 60 cm are designed for children under three years of age. They also have height adjustment due to a movable bottom. Thanks to the removable side, which can be lowered or completely removed, the child is able to climb into the bed himself. The legs in these models are either stable or with runners to rock the baby to sleep. Over time, when the baby no longer needs rocking, the runners can be fixed to avoid turning over. Plus, many of these models have drawers for clothes, bedding or toys, which are located at the bottom or on the side.

One of the options standard model is a crib with wheels that are attached to its legs. Such additional function makes it easy to move around the room. This is ideal in cases where the child often sleeps restlessly and parents are forced to constantly get up to him. With a model like this, it’s important to consider how much it weighs. Since the bed will need to be moved frequently, heavy weight may cause inconvenience.

A transforming bed can be safely called a full-fledged furniture complex. The original transforming model is a structure that has a front side made of bars and a built-in wardrobe. When the child gets older, the wardrobe can be removed from the crib by installing it next to it, but with outside, not inside. In addition to this kind of transformation, built-in furniture can be turned into a table, bedside table with one door or separate drawers.

The parameters of sleeping places in such transforming structures change only in length; in most cases it increases from 120 to 170 centimeters. Other sizes remain standard. Due to the fact that the headboard is removable, a child can sleep in it for up to 10-12 years. The assembled transforming bed itself has the following dimensions: 175-180×65-70×100-110 cm, which corresponds to: L×W×H.

Bed for two

If there are two children in a family, then parents are usually forced to buy two separate cribs for each child. This is due to a number of reasons:

• Firstly, a structure designed for two children at once can be difficult to place in an apartment.
• Secondly, this is not such a popular product. As a result, it cannot be found everywhere.

Main distinguishing feature such designs from conventional models - size. Typically they are made with dimensions of 130 by 125 centimeters. For twins or older twins ideal option, which will save space in the house - a bunk bed.

Cot-playpen

In this model, all 4 sides are limited by walls made of gratings, and the horizontal surface can be installed at two levels in height, sometimes more. The highest position of the bottom is 50 cm from the floor, designed for infants up to 3 months. At this height, it is convenient for the mother to bend over to the baby and put him back into the crib; besides, the baby at this age is not yet able to fall out of it. The bottom should be positioned 30 cm from the floor at a time when the baby is already starting to sit, grabbing the bars. In this position, the height of the side is 60-65 centimeters; a child will be able to climb over them no earlier than 2-3 years. Such grids, located at a distance of 6-10 cm from each other, serve as an excellent simulator on which the child learns to stand on his feet.

The dimensions of the sleeping area for such children's furniture are 120 by 60 cm, while the dimensions of the entire structure are 140 by 70 cm. The height usually ranges from 1-1.10 meters. Also from additional elements included in the design, it can be noted: a box for things and lower supports, made in the form of arcs, which are used for motion sickness. Plus, one of the sides is removable, and such a crib can be attached.

Beds for preschoolers, schoolchildren and teenage models

Standard size of a sleeping area intended for a child preschool age, is 150 by 75 cm. However, parents of children of this age often prefer not regular model, and the beds are in the attic.

Their feature is the presence not only of additional drawers, cabinets and tables, but also a built-in sports corner. For example, there are designs in which, in order to climb to the second floor, a Swedish ladder or rope is provided, and in order to descend, a slide or side wall with holes for the legs is provided. By design, such a furniture complex can be made in the form of an airplane or a train, its external parameters depend on this. Typically, it occupies an area of ​​150 cm in height, and the sleeping place itself is located at a distance of 130 cm from the floor.

Such options for children's beds are designed for a fairly wide age range. Children 6-10 years old can sleep on them, that is, both preschoolers and schoolchildren. For school-age children, the dimensions of the sleeping place are within 170 by 70 cm, so if the built-in furniture is compact, then the dimensions of the entire structure will be 180 by 80 cm.

As for teenage beds, their parameters are practically no different from those for adults. Maximum length is 190 cm, and the width can vary from 75 to 90 cm. For European-made models, the latter reaches 100 cm. What distinguishes them from adult beds is their design.

Two-tier models

A bunk bed is an ideal solution when there are two children in a family, especially in small apartments. It saves space and frees up space for games. The sleeping places are located one above the other or staggered.

To climb up there is a special ladder in the form Swedish wall or with wide steps that are also drawers. Some models have built-in tables where you can do homework, draw or sculpt.

Height parameters bunk bed are 1.5-1.8 meters. The distance between the tiers depends on the height of the ceiling above the sitting child. There should be enough space for the baby to feel comfortable. The sleeping places come with typical parameters: 200x80 or 200x90 cm, but the dimensions of the entire two-tier structure can vary greatly depending on the model.

Expecting a baby is important event in the life of any family, a time of happiness and hesitation. Some people strive to furnish the children's room in advance and purchase all the necessary things, while others believe that this should be done after the baby is born. Despite differences in views, start studying different options and expectant mothers and fathers need to select the best of them as early as possible.

The first step is to decide on the cradle. Choosing the right sleeping place for your baby is very important, because he will spend many hours in it. Today the most popular crib for newborns is round. This is not surprising - it has many advantages.

Advantages of a round cradle

The round cradle is the latest development furniture designers. Today, manufacturers offer convenient transforming models that can be used until the child reaches 10 years of age.

Let's consider the advantages of such furniture:

• It provides the baby with a full view (360°) of the space around him.
• It has no sharp corners.
• A variety of materials used in its manufacture.
• Can be turned into a playpen.
• Thanks to the wheels, it can be easily moved around the room.
• The dimensions of the crib can be extended as the child grows (the round shape turns into an oval).
• It saves space.
• It has an unusual, interesting appearance.
• Models equipped with drawers allow you to avoid purchasing a chest of drawers for storing children's clothes.
• Many types of such furniture are equipped with special rocking devices, which allows the newborn to fall asleep directly in them.
• Such products are safer to use.

The only drawback of the round cradle is its price. Modern transformers, which combine more than a dozen functions necessary for future parents, are expensive.

Their cost is significantly higher than that of regular baby beds. But they eliminate the need to buy a playpen, chest of drawers, changing table and other necessary furniture parts, the purchase of which will cost more.

Possible modifications of transforming beds

• Changing table.
• Manezhik.
• Round crib for baby up to 6 months.
• Oval-shaped sleeping place for a child from 6 months.
• Miniature sofa.
• Add-on cradle.
• A small table with a pair of armchairs.

Design and packaging solution

A round crib is a pair of semicircular slats with slats, which can be either metal or wood. The product from which material to choose depends on the preferences of the parents: each option has its own advantages. Wood is environmentally friendly and gives off a feeling of warmth.

Metal structures are easy to assemble, resistant to loosening and retain their impeccable appearance for a long time. The bottom is usually made from plywood sheet. Metal models are equipped with a wide strip with holes located throughout its entire surface.

The kit additionally includes a pair of rectangular strips with slats and a plate for the bottom. They are used to convert a round cradle into an oval one.

All motion sickness mechanisms are divided into rocking chairs and pendulums. The rocking chair is suitable for children up to 6 months; after that, there is a danger that when rocking, the baby may fall out of it. A crib with a pendulum is a safer option. There can be two ways to swing it: “right - left” or “forward - back”. The most preferable and convenient for the baby is the first option.

In addition to the necessary structural parts of the cradle, it is necessary to ensure that it is properly equipped. A set for a round crib must include a mattress, bumper, and blanket.

It is better to choose a mattress of medium hardness for a baby. The optimal filler would be coconut fiber. A mattress with asymmetrical thickness is allowed. This design ensures that the baby's head will lie on a slight elevation. This will prevent the newborn from choking when burping.

There are many different types sides in a round crib (bumpers). Some of them consist of a solid fabric with filling, on the sides of which there are ribbons for attaching to the cradle. Others are individual pads on ribbons. Interesting idea designers are made from a variety of soft toys.

The question “does a baby need a pillow” causes a lot of controversy. Many are convinced that it is unnecessary and harmful. And some believe that a thin, wide pillow is necessary to prevent the baby’s head from rolling down.

You should definitely purchase a diaper made of waterproof fabric with an elastic band - this is a guarantee that it will remain in its place at the right time.

A blanket for a baby must be made of non-allergenic materials. Wool or flannel are perfect. Due to the fact that the heat exchange processes of a newborn have not yet been established, you should not wrap your baby in blankets made of heavy, dense fabric.

Species

The photo of a round crib shows that it can be:

• Hanging type.
• Classic with no resizing function.
• Equipped with a pendulum.
• Added type.
• Transformable (from 3 in 1 to 11 in 1).

Judging by such a variety of types, it is clear that cradles of a round configuration are quite popular today. For a baby you can buy hanging model in the form of a cradle. It will give the newborn a feeling of weightlessness, lightness, and at the same time it will look quite cute and touching.

But such a cradle will no longer be safe as soon as the baby learns to roll over. This is a good option for a crib for a child's room, albeit for a fairly short time.

Classical round bed usually made from natural wood. The level of the bottom may change as the child grows older. The product is not equipped with an additional insert to increase the size, so it cannot be used for a long time. Typically, such a sleeping place is equipped with wheels.

Models with a pendulum are considered more advanced. They make it easy to rock a newborn to sleep. The downside is their large size. Over time, they may also begin to creak.

The attached structure will be appreciated by parents who want their child to be nearby even at night. This model will allow them not to jump out of bed in the middle of the night when they hear a baby crying.

All about sizes

The round cradle is distinguished by its non-standard dimensions. Most products have a diameter at the bottom of 0.75 m and a width of 0.85 m. With an average baby height of 46 - 54 cm, a decent margin remains.

In the oval modification, the round crib has a size of 1.25 × 0.75 m. You can also find products with a diameter of 0.8 m on sale. Older children will feel more comfortable in them.

There is no baby bed that all parents consider the best option for your little one. If main criterion– financial component, then it’s not worth buying classic type round cradle. Once the baby reaches 6 months, it will become cramped and uncomfortable in it, which means he will have to look for another bed again. The ideal solution in a situation with a limited budget, there will be a round crib - a transformer with 2-3 functions.

If you are focused on making your newborn as comfortable and cozy as possible, pay attention to a classic or hanging round cradle. According to experienced parents, sleep in such cradles is the sweetest and most sound.

If your budget allows, it is best to purchase a transforming bed. Before buying, you need to carefully consider what modifications you will need - maybe you need a compact sofa, but you can do just fine without a table with chairs. It is irrational to pay for unnecessary functions.

When choosing a crib, do not forget about bed linen. Special baby clothes for a round cradle are not sold everywhere. As a result, before purchasing a sleeping place for a newborn, you need to take care of its configuration: order linen online or directly in the store.

Typically, a standard set of bedding for a crib consists of a sheet, pillowcase, blanket, duvet cover, small wide pillow, bumpers and canopy.

We hope that in this article you found the answer to the question: “how to choose a crib” and you will not have any difficulties purchasing it. Good luck!
