Do kids need a bedside table?

Nightstands or bedside tables aren’t necessary in a child’s room, but we recommend adding them to your little one’s bedroom. Nightstands make a bedroom look complete and keep personal belongings within reach and out of eyesight. Style the nightstand with practical decor, like table lamps and alarm clocks.

How tall should a kids’ nightstand be?

There is no set height for a child’s nightstand. The top of the nightstand should be level with the top of the mattress to ensure your child can easily access items while they’re in bed. Before purchasing a nightstand, measure the floor to the top of the mattress. Nightstands within three inches of the measured height should work.

What do you put on a kids' nightstand?

Nightstands are usually the perfect place for a nighttime reading lamp and alarm clock. Customize the nightstand based on your child’s age. Toddlers might benefit from a lightweight night light, while school-aged kids might prefer an alarm clock and a task-oriented light. The options for stylizing the nightstand with practical and stylish decor is endless.

Before You Buy

Ask yourself the following questions before you start searching for a nightstand. The answers to these questions will help narrow your search.

What is the total height of your child’s bed, including the frame and mattress? They’ll need a nightstand level with their bed, so they have easy access to it.

How much space is available on either side of the bed? This determines the width of the nightstand and if you can have a matching set.

How much storage space do you need? A nightstand that doubles as a chest of drawers is perfect for rooms with limited space, while a tabletop nightstand works well in rooms that need space for a bedside lamp or clock.

What other items do you need space for in the room? If you need space for a floor lamp, bedside fan, or other furnishings, you might need a smaller nightstand.

Nightstand Height

Low Nighstand

Typically less than 23” tall and pair best with low bed frames.

Standard Nightstand

24”-28” tall, they work well with standard beds.

Tall Nightstand/Chest

Higher than 30”, these are a good choice for taller beds.

Nightstand Width

Narrow nightstands

Less than 20” wide, these styles look best next to a twin bed or in small rooms.

Standard nightstands

Between 21” to 28” wide, this size is ideal for pairing with full- or queen-sized beds.

Wide nightstands

More than 29” wide, these nightstands are ideal when paired with a King or California King bed.

Types of Nightstands

Chest

A chest-style nightstand typically features two to three drawers for extra storage space, essentially appearing as a mini dresser.

Cabinets

Similar to a bedside chest, cabinets offer extra storage. Instead of featuring multiple drawers, they tend to have a single drawer situated above a cabinet.

Table

A table nightstand is the most simplistic iteration of a nightstand. A bedside table is used for holding the basics, like a lamp and alarm clock.

Add Style & Function with a Kids' Nightstand

Choosing the right nightstand for your little one’s room is essential for making your family’s nights stress-free. Select a style that they love and works in their space. Browse kids’ nightstands near you with our comprehensive selection.
