A bunk bed for three is also an excellent option, particularly when you intend to use the bottom bunk as an office or playroom during the day.

Most bunks come with ladders built into the frame or a staircase that leads to the top bunk. The ladder's height shouldn't exceed 5-6 feet above the ceiling to ensure safety. This will prevent bumping heads and ensure that the child sleeping on the top bunk doesn't sleep too high.

To climb up, kids simply set their feet on each rung one at a time and then move their bodies upwards until they reach the top bunk. Think about a ladder that comes with handhole cutouts and anti-slip grooves to help youngsters to hold onto the ladder as they climb.
