5. House roof or baldachin for the bunk bed  

Very popular on Pinterest and Instagram is the  house roof for the IKEA bunk bed. If it's too much work to build a little house with a roof out of the bed, you can also attach a baldachin to it. A canopy over the cot provides a sense of security and gives the child a cosy, very own cave under which creative thoughts can be given free rein and the child's imagination is given every freedom. IKEA offers canopies and canopies in various designs.

This serves as a staircase and offers lots of storage space thanks to the integrated boxes. If you're feeling adventurous, you can attach a slide to the IKEA KURA. But please always be especially careful. Safety first.

The KURA bunk bed is clearly one of the favourites in the children's furniture department. Thanks to its convertibility, it is unbeatable in terms of price-performance ratio. Initially, it can be set up for toddlers in the floor-level version. If at some point the desire for a bunk bed arises and your child is old enough, you simply turn it around and have a stable IKEA bunk bed. We also like the simple colour scheme, white and natural wood - so the IKEA KURA bed fits into every child's room. And the best thing is: it offers ideal space for IKEA KURA hacks.

From what age is the IKEA KURA suitable?

The KURA cot is a good choice. For toddlers from the age of about two, the KURA can be set up as a low bed. There is enough space for lots of soft cuddly toys and for mum and dad during bedtime stories. However, the maximum load of the IKEA KURA is 100 kg. As soon as your child gets older, you can easily convert the IKEA KURA cot into a bunk bed. This will not only bring a breath of fresh air into your home. This not only brings a breath of fresh air into the children's room. Loft beds are also very popular among primary school children. The IKEA KURA is lower than other bunk beds and therefore safer. The low height also makes it easier for parents to say goodnight.


When can my child start sleeping in the bunk bed? 

IKEA's bunk bed has a balustrade on the side so that children can sleep safely on the upper level at night and not fall off. If this is still too precarious for you, you can attach an additional fall-out protection. IKEA generally recommends that children should not sleep upstairs in the bunk bed until they are 6 years old. But you can still use the IKEA KURA before then. The KURA is convertible and can also be used as a floor bed.
