Kid's Bedroom Furniture Tips
Furniture Basics
The most basic bedroom furniture essentials that your child will need include a bed with a good mattress, a nightstand, and a dresser or armoire for storing clothing.
We also recommend a hamper for laundry (if this isn't in your bathroom) and plenty of storage for toys, books and other items. If your child's room has the space, you may also want to consider a desk for their room.
Of course, just because you know the basics, doesn't mean you won't be completely overwhelmed at the selection of styles, options for configuration and materials from which you can choose. Don't be afraid to take you kid out to a few furniture stores to figure out what appeals to them before you make your final decisions.

Kid's Seating
A rocking chair or other comfortable seating element is a nice addition to kids' room furniture, if there is room. That way, your child and his or her visitors have another place to sit, and a bedside chair will make the room inviting for mom and dad for visits ranging from a toddler's bedtime story to hearing about your middle schooler's day.

How to Select Furniture for the Kid's Room
The kid's room may be one of the hardest in the house to decorate. You have to plan ahead and try to anticipate what your child will want two years, three years, even five years down the road. So when choosing kid's room furniture, stick to these guidelines:
• Choose durable, well-made furniture that is already assembled at the factory.
• Check for safety recalls and manufacturer guarantees.
• Select furniture in colors, such as brown or white, that will go with a variety of color schemes.
• Pick multi-purpose pieces that double as storage options.
• Let your child personalize his or her room with trendy accessories and art rather than expensive furniture.
By following these guidelines, your kid's room décor can change over time without your having to blow your decorating budget on new furniture.

Storage Furniture
In addition to basic bedroom furniture, your child's room will also benefit from a toy box in which he or she can stow his or her toys, a bookshelf or two on which to store books and other items, and a desk and chair at which he or she can study, draw, etc.
