Choice of materials for a safe trundle bed
When it comes to choosing a trundle bed for young children, the top priority is to ensure their safety while guaranteeing sturdiness. Materials play a crucial role here. Opting for solid wood such as pine or beech not only ensures exceptional durability, but also reinforced stability that stands up to children's lively play.

What's more, it's essential that the paints used are free from harmful volatile organic compounds (VOCs), to avoid dangerous exposure during prolonged periods spent in the room.
Accessories for the comfort of young children
A number of accessories can be integrated into the trundle bed to ensure a restful, peaceful sleep for toddlers. A suitable mattress is of paramount importance here, offering firm yet welcoming support thanks to its high-density foam composition covered by a breathable hypoallergenic cover.
A report published by Santé Publique France indicates that nearly 60% of sleep disorders in children could be alleviated with the appropriate use of an adapted ergonomic mattress (source - Santé Publique France - February 22, 2020).
Here are a few accessories to enhance children's comfort:
- Soft cushions: provide softness and comfort during quiet moments or before bedtime;
- Breathable sheets: made of GOTS-certified organic cotton for optimum thermal regulation in all seasons;
- Cozy blankets: ideal for reading a bedtime story!
By judiciously combining these essential elements according to the specific needs of each child, and taking into account expert advice, parents can create an environment conducive to the well-being and harmonious development of their little adventurers!
