Do NOT build this bed if you want your kids to take a nap, all by themselves ... It's like a protected nest up there, with rails on all sides, and easy access with stairs. They just climb up there and go to sleep. If you build this bed, you will miss out on lots of smiles and laughter and pretend play.

The only reason I built this bed was because the room is so tiny (8x8 with small closet) it was very difficult for the kids to play, and then put their things away in a space the size of a short hallway. So we needed a loft bed WITH STAIRS that is sturdy and easy to access in a TINY room. The window was previously the obstacle in the way of building stairs. Under the bed, no storage is lost.
