It is not as easy to select a bed that fits children and teens as it is to select one which fits their size. Children grow, and their needs alter quickly, whereas their bedrooms often look quite limited in size. A toddler bed is not likely to be used by school-age children, nor will it work with teens. The decision regarding the right fitting bed for your child can lead to important outcomes in terms of functionality, regardless of the stage at which your child is. A divan bed with drawers, like those from Sonno Beds, helps maintain organisation in the room and provides restful sleep options for your child. 

Which Factors Play A Key Role In Choosing A Bed For Children?

And that’s how the idea of a family cruise quietly crept into the conversation.

If I’m honest, it’s something I used to mentally file under “not for us.” Cruise ships seemed enormous, scheduled, and possibly a bit too polished. We usually look for places with space to explore, moments to get a bit lost, and the option to sit on a quiet bench somewhere with snacks.

Nobody really tells you how loud life can get. Not just the obvious stuff—screaming toddlers, barking dogs, dinner burning in the oven while the laundry buzzes like it’s mocking you—but the mental volume. The running list in your head: permission slips, that weird smell in the fridge, taxes you meant to file three weeks ago.

Our family life is full. A beautiful mess, sure, but sometimes it feels like we’re all just trying to make it through the day without collapsing into a pile of unmatched socks and Cheerio crumbs.

And somewhere along the way, we realized we needed to build in some breath. Not just for the sake of sanity—but to actually enjoy each other.
