From baby’s first crib to a bedroom made for growing kids.
Find the Right Bed for Every Stage
As children grow, their sleeping arrangements change right along with them. A crib provides a dedicated sleep space for a baby, while toddler and children’s beds accommodate new stages of independence. Bunk beds can help make better use of shared bedrooms when children are old enough. Explore these four options to find a bed that fits your child’s current needs and your family’s space.
Convertible Cribs
A thoughtful start for growing families.
A convertible crib offers a beautiful starting point for your baby’s nursery with the potential to adapt as your child grows. Select designs can transition into toddler beds and larger bed configurations using compatible conversion components. This flexibility makes convertible cribs appealing to parents who want to keep a familiar furniture style through different stages of childhood.
Always follow the manufacturer’s assembly, mattress, conversion, and safe-sleep instructions.
Toddler Beds
A comfortable next step toward independence.
A toddler bed helps bridge the transition between a crib and a larger children’s bed. Its lower sleeping surface can make it easier for young children to get in and out independently. Some designs include protective side rails, while others offer simple, open styling. Choose a model suited to your child’s development and the manufacturer’s recommended limits.
Child Beds
A bedroom centerpiece they’ll love.
A child’s bed provides a comfortable place to rest while bringing personality to their bedroom. Available in a variety of designs, these beds can complement everything from classic nursery furniture to rooms for older children. Consider the mattress size, available floor space, and coordinating furniture when choosing a bed that fits your child’s needs.
Bunk Beds
Smart sleeping arrangements for shared rooms.
A bunk bed provides two sleeping spaces in a stacked arrangement, making it useful for bedrooms shared by siblings. Its vertical design can leave more floor space available for storage, furniture, and play. Some styles also offer stairs or other access configurations. When choosing a bunk bed, consider ceiling height, mattress specifications, guardrails, and your children’s ages.
Children younger than six should never use the upper bunk. Always follow the manufacturer’s safety and weight limits.

Practical bedroom storage that makes everyday organization easier.
Give Everything Its Own Place
Children’s bedrooms have a way of filling up with clothing, books, toys, and special keepsakes. The right storage furniture makes it easier to keep everything organized without sacrificing the room’s welcoming appearance. Chests, dressers, and nightstands each serve a different purpose, helping you create a bedroom that feels comfortable and manageable as your child grows.
Chests
Make the most of vertical space.
A chest of drawers provides useful clothing storage in a tall, relatively compact design. Its stacked drawers can help organize pajamas, sweaters, seasonal clothing, and other essentials without taking up as much wall space as a wide dresser. It’s a practical addition when bedroom space is limited or extra storage is needed.
Secure chests to the wall using appropriate anchoring hardware to help prevent tip-over accidents.
Dressers
Roomy storage for everyday essentials.
A dresser provides convenient drawer space for clothing, bedding, and other belongings. Its wider design also offers a useful surface for age-appropriate bedroom accessories. Some nursery dresser models have compatible changing-top options, allowing the piece to serve different purposes over time. It’s a versatile choice for creating a coordinated children’s bedroom.
Always anchor dressers securely and follow the manufacturer’s instructions for any changing attachment.
Discover chairs designed for mealtime, playtime, and growing independence.
A Special Seat for Every Little Moment
From first meals at the family table to quiet moments with a favorite book, children’s seating serves many different purposes. The right chair should suit your child’s developmental stage, activities, and available space. Explore these four seating styles to discover options for dining, relaxing, playing, and spending time together.
Children’s Chairs
Just their size, just their style.
A children’s chair gives little ones a comfortable place to sit during everyday activities. Sized for smaller users, these chairs work well in playrooms, bedrooms, and children’s activity areas. Pair them with an appropriately sized table to create a welcoming space for drawing, games, and other favorite activities.
High Chairs
Bring little ones to the family table.
A high chair provides an elevated seating position for young children during mealtime. Depending on the model, designs may offer different tray, footrest, and seating arrangements. It’s an important piece of everyday family furniture when a child is developmentally ready to use one.
Choose a high chair appropriate for the child’s age and size, and always use the manufacturer’s required restraints and follow supervision instructions.
Rockers
Traditional charm for quiet moments.
A child’s rocking chair brings classic character and gentle movement to a bedroom or play area. Its familiar design creates a special place for an age-appropriate reading break or quiet activity. Children’s rockers are available in different styles, making them attractive additions to traditional and country-inspired spaces.
Choose a rocker suited to your child’s size and follow the product’s age and supervision guidance.
Youth Chairs
A better fit for growing kids.
A youth chair helps older children join family activities with seating designed around their needs. These chairs can be especially useful at dining tables or other shared spaces where a standard adult chair may not provide the right seating position. With classic hardwood designs available, youth chairs can coordinate beautifully with your existing furniture.

Make Room for Imagination
A child’s play space should make room for creativity, exploration, and everyday fun. Practical furniture can help organize toys, provide places for activities, and create comfortable spaces for time spent indoors or outside. From handcrafted toy boxes to children’s tables, these pieces add useful function while making play areas feel welcoming.
Toy Boxes
A special place for favorite treasures.
A toy box provides convenient storage for toys, games, and other playroom essentials. It’s an attractive way to reduce clutter while giving children a familiar place to put their belongings. Available in different sizes and styles, toy boxes can complement a child’s bedroom or serve as a practical addition to a dedicated play space.
When selecting a toy box, review its lid design, hardware, and manufacturer safety instructions.
Playroom Toys
Bring imagination into everyday play.
Thoughtfully chosen toys help make a playroom feel inviting and personal. Explore charming options such as rocking horses, tabletop games, and other handcrafted play pieces. These items can add traditional character while creating opportunities for age-appropriate play and family activities.
Always select toys that match the child’s age and abilities, and follow product safety recommendations.

Children’s Furniture Questions, Answered
Helpful guidance for choosing furniture that fits your family.
What’s the difference between a crib, toddler bed, and child’s bed?
A crib provides an enclosed sleeping space designed for infants and younger children who meet the manufacturer’s limits. A toddler bed offers a lower sleeping surface for children ready to transition out of a crib. A child’s bed generally provides a larger sleeping area suitable for an older child. Always follow the manufacturer’s size, weight, and developmental guidance when changing beds.
Can a convertible crib grow with my child?
Some convertible cribs can transition into toddler beds, daybeds, or larger bed configurations using compatible conversion components. Southern Outdoor Furniture carries convertible crib options, including collections designed for different stages of childhood. Ask our team which conversions are supported, whether the necessary components are included, and which accessories must be ordered separately.
Are bunk beds a good choice for a shared children’s bedroom?
Bunk beds can be a practical choice for siblings sharing a bedroom because they provide two sleeping spaces in a stacked arrangement. However, children younger than six should never sleep on the upper bunk. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for guardrails, ladders, mattress size, and weight limits. Measure ceiling height and available floor space before choosing a design.
Can I customize children’s bedroom furniture?
Southern Outdoor Furniture offers custom-order hardwood furniture with options such as wood species, stain colors, and dimensions. Select children’s collections also provide compatible conversion pieces or coordinating storage options. Available choices vary by builder and design. For cribs, bunk beds, and other children’s products, only manufacturer-approved configurations should be used.
What should I consider when making a child’s bedroom safer?
Choose furniture appropriate for your child’s age and follow all manufacturer instructions. Secure dressers and chests to the wall with proper anchoring hardware to help prevent tip-overs. For infants, use a crib meeting current safety requirements with a firm, flat mattress and a fitted sheet only. Keep pillows, blankets, bumpers, and toys out of an infant’s sleep space. Check product recalls and safety recommendations before use.
