Keep your kids' bedtime routine organized with a nightstand designed just for them. Having a place for your kids to store their favorite storybooks, toys, and other nighttime essentials makes bedtime hassle-free, making a kids' nightstand a key component of their bedroom furniture setup.
There are a few factors to consider in order to find the best bedside table for your little one. Use this guide to find the perfect nightstand for your little one.
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.
