Even if we have endless bed decor options, we're not only about cutesy Bed Tents around here! You can provide your child with a healthy environment in which to sleep, play, and build healthy habits that he or she will never outgrow (even as a college student) with our Maxtrix Bedroom Furniture.

Sleeping Area

In order to satisfy customers' demands, many kid-friendly, space-saving mattresses compromise quality and safety. At The Bedroom Source, we believe that children's furniture may be both safe and well-made. Our Maxtrix Bunk Beds and Loft Beds are made from our high-quality Basic Beds using only natural wood and secure Rock-Lock Connectors. A Slat Roll is included in every one of our Maxtrix beds, giving ideal support without retaining moisture like Bunky Boards. Allowing your mattress to breathe allows moisture to escape, extending the life of your mattress and preventing your child's sleep environment from becoming harmful. Our Maxtrix slat rolls, unlike many alternative options, are made out of 14 solid wood slats that have been proven to support up to 800 pounds (more than double the US safety requirement). Safety is enhanced by the addition of higher-than-average Safety Rails and other measures.

Playing Actively

We regularly hear about the problem of childhood obesity, as well as other consequences of a sedentary lifestyle, from First Ladies (such as Michelle Obama) to health care specialists. The Maxtrix System allows you give extra floor space by raising beds into Loft Beds or stacking multiple beds into any of our many Bunk Bed configurations (combining up to 6 into a single unit). You can strengthen the invitation for active, imaginative play by adding a Top Tent, Tower, Slide, or Under-Bed Curtains. Whatever your youngster does with the extra floor space, it provides the opportunity for more movement and creative thinking.

While those activities are beneficial to all children, they are especially important for kids with learning disabilities, as well as personality and mood issues. Exercise can result in an increase in dopamine in a child's body which can help improve the attention and focus of a child with ADHC. Exercise also releases endorphins, the brain's "feel-good" hormone. Exercise, which is nature's antidepressant, also aids children and adults in releasing restless energy, which is a characteristic of ADHD. You provide an additional tool in helping your child grow up to be healthy and strong - both physically and emotionally - when you provide room for movement and exercise.

Healthy Practices

The Maxtrix System gives a structure suited to an ordered storage system, from organizing clothes and toys to performing homework. Uncluttered space has been shown to help people organize their thoughts and reduce worry, and children are definitely no exception. Many studies, in addition to Feng shui proponents, highlight the educational benefits of having a distinct room designated for schoolwork; in fact, some feel that having a defined study space at home adds to Japanese students' ranking above most US students. A Maxtrix loft bed with a student desk underneath can help create a dedicated study space with minimal distractions, and it can encourage a child or teen to focus on getting their homework completed.
