Kids will go crazy for these over-the-top-beds (our nine-year-old guest columnist did). Parents? They'll balk at the price tags.Many of us dreamed of the perfect childhood bedroom -- toys, color, magic. But very few ever imagined being able to climb into an intergalactic battleship or get beauty sleep in a fashion show runway bed! My nine-year-old daughter, Sadie, took a look at some of the most elaborate fantasy beds available at Posh Tots and she could not believe her eyes. So we asked Sadie to kindly play guest columnist and give us a kid's take on these over the top beds. She thought it would be cool to walk the catwalk to sleep in the Fashionista bed and giddyup on into a Lone Star bed like a cowgirl. She voted the English Tudor Cottage bed "best for sleepovers."
"Is that a bed??!!" said Sadie. "Woahhhh." Before picking this totally Cinderalla-esque extravaganza for your child, remember it needs a lot of space (it's six-feet diameter not counting the steps). Fantasy Themed Beds for Posh Tots! "That is soooo cool. When I used to be into Cinderella, if I had this bed," said Sadie. "I would wake up every morning and pretend I was a princess. I would feel like I was sleeping in my royal chamber." No, not a bunk bead. That's a balcony for your little princess to hold court from. Fantasy Themed Beds for Posh Tots! "Oh wowww I want that so badly because it is huge and fashiony," said Sadie. "It looks cool with all of the lights!I would put my clothes over the mannequins when they are turned off. I love the chandelier and the mural because it looks like models on a runway." A bed and a runway and a set of murals to finish the entire room. Fantasy Themed Beds for Posh Tots! "It is cool because it has a TV," said Sadie. "But it doesn't look that comfortable. It is hard to even see where you would sleep." Fantasy Themed Beds for Posh Tots! "Oh look! American Girl dolls Felicity and Elizabeth! And it looks like Molly up top too! I really want it," said Sadie. "It has windows and you can play in it like it's your house or your own American Girl doll's house! How do you get these to fit in your room?" The answer, Ms. Sadie, is good design. The entire thing comes delivered in pieces that will fit through a 30-inch doorway. Fantasy Themed Beds for Posh Tots! "Oh that's cool! It even has a slide! I wish I had that," said Sadie. "But I would need a whole new room design." Real bamboo, real thatching, but artificial leaves (so they will stay green). Fantasy Themed Beds for Posh Tots! "This doesn't look the best," said Sadie. "It is more for toddlers and it is kind of plain compared to the others and not really that exciting." Maybe, but it's perfect for playing Pirates of The Carribean! Fantasy Themed Beds for Posh Tots! "Is that a bed?? It is really not actually a bed, but it looks cool. I still wouldn't want it because it doesn't' seem that interesting to me," said Sadie. It's not actually a bed. The lighthouse tower is storage and an entertainment unit. (See the TV midway up?) And the small house is a laundry hamper. The bigger house unit is four-drawer dresser. Fantasy Themed Beds for Posh Tots! "Wow, that is a horse stable? This would be my dream! I love to horseback ride. I would pretend to grab my saddle and head off to the barn at 6 am!" Perfect for any cowgirl or cowboy, but PoshTots says this bed is currently "out of stock."
