Children's bedroom: when should you switch to a double bed?
Bye bye bar bed
An important step in a child's life, changing beds is for them one more step towards independence. Your child will be able to get out of bed alone, day and night!
This change does not happen just at any time! Even if there are no rules, you will see clues that are not misleading:
- Your child climbs the bars of his bed.
- He's starting to get cramped, especially with his stuffed animals.
- He doesn't want to sleep in his sleeping bag anymore.
Do you recognize yourself in any of his statements? If in addition Junior is between 2 and 3 years old, then it is a good time to change. Parents, get your tissues ready and... the land to modify her small room.
Which queen bed should you choose for your child?
Before changing your child's entire bedroom, decor, and bed sheets, consider several things: the size of their space and your child's state of mind. While some children are delighted to become bigger, others are apprehensive about leaving their cozy cocoon.
If you want a smooth change, or if your child's room is small and unable to accommodate a 90×190 cm single bed, we recommend a transition bed.
The YOMI Junior Bed has a refined shape reminiscent of Daybeds. It supports a 70 × 140 cm mattress. These dimensions accommodate children aged 2 to 6 years in complete safety.
Our other secret to a successful transition? A bumper, to slide under the fitted sheet. This alternative to traditional bed rails is reassuring. Made of foam and soft, it helps children understand the limits of their new queen bed. This barrier thus creates a protective cocoon. In addition, our Bumper can also be used with the KIMI extendable bed in its open version.

Make way for real parents who can give you their opinion on our YOMI bed!
Luc, Juliette's dad, 3 years old
“YOMI has been with us for 1 year. The transition was smooth. What a joy for Juliette to be able to come and see us in the morning alone like a grown-up, without having to get her out of bed.”
Sophie, Adam's mom, 5
“I had trouble setting up an adult bed in my little boy's bedroom. The YOMI size was a good alternative. Plus I love its design. When Adam gets too big, we'll turn the Yomi into a small bench in our living room.”
Marie, mother of Tristan, 4 years old
“My son is not leaving his YOMI, and even less his Bumper, which reassures him enormously. Even on vacation, he wants to take her with him! ”
