Gaming Beds
Gaming beds are the latest addition to Cuckooland’s extensive range of cool kids beds. At first glance they may be mistaken for a regular high sleeper bed or loft bed, however, to the trained eye of an avid gamer, they provide the perfect blend of sleep station and gaming station.
Whether your young gaming enthusiast needs a bed with a desk large enough for two screens or wants to kick back on their under bed sofa while they build their futuristic dream house in Minecraft - we have all bases covered.
Gaming beds are space-saving beds, combining sleep space with plenty of storage that has been perfectly designed to accommodate screens, consoles and speakers. A gaming bed’s compact design means they will also fit in smaller bedrooms without consuming too much floor space. If you’re just looking for more of a storage bed, why not take a look at our cabin beds too - these multi-functional beds are bursting with adventure and are becoming increasingly popular amongst parents looking for both aesthetics and practicality.
Gaming Beds FAQs
Before you entertain buying a gaming bed, here are a few FAQ’s that’ll help you decide if it’s the best bed for your child;
-
What age is a gaming bed suitable for?
Because all of our gaming beds are raised beds, with the bed being accessed by a ladder, we would recommend that they are suitable for children over the age of 6 years. A gaming bed makes the perfect teen bed due to the additional desk space that is often required in those teen years.
-
Do gaming beds have space for a computer or TV screen?
Our range of gaming beds all include desk space that can house a computer screen (some even fit multiple screens!) or a TV. However, you will need to make sure that you check the size of the desk space against the screen size for compatibility.
-
How do I manage my child’s screen time if they have a gaming bed?
Managing your child’s screen time can be tricky with or without a gaming bed! Whether your child is scrolling through their phone or playing on a games console, it’s important to instil clear boundaries in order to try and maintain a healthy balance of time on and off screen. A healthy sleep routine for your child will include coming off screens at least an hour before they plan to go to sleep. FYI - most devices and gaming consoles have settings where you can control the amount of screen time, so it’s always worth discussing this with the kids and then setting a few boundaries from the get-go. Tip: ‘We’ll agree to a gaming bed if you agree to ‘x’ amount of screen time per week, finishing no later than 8pm on a school night, and only after we have signed your homework book…’
