Children's mattressesComfort isn’t the only quality that’s important in a mattress for small children. It also has to stand up to their every-night needs for several years. Our children’s mattresses have a breathable, pressure-relieving design for growing bodies, and removable, machine-washable covers for always-fresh sleep. IKEA FAMILY products & offers Traditional king-size beds measure 76 inches wide by 80 inches long. California king-size beds measure 72 inches wide by 84 inches long. Sharing a king-size bed with another person affords one the same room as sleeping alone in a twin-size bed. Queen-size beds measure 60 inches wide by 80 inches long. Olympic and California queen-size beds are sometimes difficult to find, it is even more difficult to find linens for them. The Olympic queen measures 66 inches by 80 inches, and the California queen measures 60 inches by 84 inches. The dimensions of full-size beds are 54 inches wide by 75 inches long. They are sometimes called double beds.
Before king and queen sizes existed, most couples slept on full-size beds. These beds are ideal for pre-teens or teens who are shorter than 65 inches. Standard twin beds, also known as singles, hold mattresses that measure 39 inches wide by 75 inches long. Extra-long twins are 5 inches longer. Small children will fit this size of bed perfectly, but twin beds can accommodate adults, as well. Toddler beds hold mattresses that are the same size as crib mattresses, give or take about one-half an inch. They usually measure 27 inches wide by 52 inches long. The small size makes it easy to place waterproof pads or sheets on top of them, which will come in handy if your toddler is working on potty training. Bunk beds come in two configurations: twin-over-twin or twin-over-full size. If you have multiple children, bunk beds may be the ideal sleeping arrangement for them. Though 165 pounds is a standard weight limit for bunk beds, it is best to check the manufacturer’s guidelines prior to purchase.

DaVinci Crescent Mini Crib and Toddler 50 Coil Mattress Colgate Portable Crib/Mini Crib Mattress Babies"R"Us Baby Crib & Toddler MattressesA standard twin bed mattress generally measures 39 inches wide and 74 to 75 inches long, depending on the manufacturer. Extra-long twin mattresses measure 80 inches long. Toddler beds, when converted from a crib, use the same mattress from the crib with dimensions of 27 inches wide and lengths in 51 1/2 to 52 inches. A junior mattress varies in size by the manufacturer and can be 60 inches long, but nowadays they are mostly standard twin-bed size. Junior twin mattresses used to range in size from the toddler bed or crib-sized mattress up to 31 inches wide and 75 inches long. Older junior mattresses used to be about 66 inches long, suitable for a child just over 4 feet tall. When it's time to move a child from a crib to a bed, especially if he's climbing out of the crib, the crib mattress can make the move to a toddler bed. These mattresses work the best for that in-between stage when a child is ready for more independence but may need the protection a crib mattress affords during the potty-training stage.
Parents generally move their child from a crib to a toddler bed between the ages of 1 1/2 to 3 1/2. The Move to a Twin Bed Whether you choose between a junior twin mattress or a standard twin, the best age to move your child to the larger bed is after the child no longer wets at night. Children 4 years of age to about 6 or 7 fit comfortably on a junior twin mattress when the mattress is about 66 inches long, as the average 4-year-old is 37 inches tall, while the average 7-year-old is 44-inches tall. For older children with enuresis -- a nighttime bed wetting problem -- leaving them on a crib-sized toddler mattress may do more psychological harm than good. To protect a junior or standard twin mattress for children with enuresis, purchase a waterproof, hypoallergenic cover. What Mattress to Buy To avoid the added expense of having to buy three mattresses for your growing child, a more cost-efficient solution would be to use the crib mattress in a toddler bed until the child grows enough to require the standard or extra-long twin mattress.
Because crib and toddler mattresses are interchangeable, a crib mattress may work for a child up until the age of 5 or 6. After that age, a standard twin can work as a bed all the way through the child's teen years, unless your child's growth rate exceeds the norm; then it might be wiser to choose an extra-long twin mattress instead. Mattress Size Based on Height Children grow at different rates, but your child's height should be a major factor when changing the mattress and bed. According to a chart offered by the state of New Mexico, the average height sizes across the United States for children range as follows: 2 years old, 31 inches 3 years old, 33 inches 4 years old, 37 inches 5 years old, 40 inches 6 years old, 42 inches 7 years old, 44 inches 8 years old, 45 inches 9 years old, 49 inches 10 years old, 51 inches 11 years old, 52 inches 12 to 13 years, 58 to 62 inches 14 to 15 years, 63 to 66 inches Because all children are different and grow at their own pace, don't get caught up in marketing and advertising recommendations as to when to move your child to a larger bed.
