Believe it or not, it may even be a little more complex than the decision when you are furnishing the rest of your home.
After all, this space belongs to your precious child.
But there are a few good tips just to consider as you prepare to purchase.
Space is often at a premium in children's rooms so its useful to have the childrens furniture you purchase be multi-functional.
Luckily there are a lot of pieces that do "double duty", like headboards that can be used as bookcases, or chests that can double as stairs or seating while they are also used for storage of toys, blankets or other objects.
Raymond Furniture has a bed called The Junior Low Twin Size Loft Bed that is low enough to make it a good choice for younger children.
Kids love bunk beds and they can be a practical choice if two of your children sharing a bedroom, or even for a sleepover.
Powell Furniture has one called The Spokane Bunk Bed that is a nice choice.
Some will feature trundle drawers on the bottom for even more storage capacity.
Of course you will want to get sturdy furniture that has been put together solidly.
Kids can be rough on furniture, so it should be able to stand up to that.
Make sure there aren't any blatant safety hazards, like loose rails on the bunk beds, or ladders that aren't securely fastened or seem flimsy.
If you decide to purchase older used furniture make certain the paint does not have lead in it.
Use water-based paint if you choose to do it yourself.
You may also want to check the internet to see if there are recalls or safety concerns with any items you are considering purchasing.
