MattressYour child doesn’t need an ergonomic mattress but he shouldn’t use any old lumpy bed.

According to studies, young children grow as much as 1.5cm in a single night. This is the time when their growth hormone is produced. So supple young backs need a good supportive bed.

A child mattress should be firm, but not too firm. If it’s too firm, the child won’t be comfortable, especially if  he is skinny. Put a comforter on the mattress to cushion him.

Futons are are good as they’re not too big and are firm with a soft cushioning.

There’s no harm in your child sleeping on your posture mattress, but cushion his side with a comforter.

To reduce your child’s exposure to chemicals such as brominated flame retardants (BFRs), wrap the mattress in an untreated 100% cotton sheet with a thread count of 250 or more.

BFRs, used to slow the spread of fire in furniture, mattresses, curtains, carpets and electronics, can accumulate in the body over time and may cause cancer, reproductive problems and learning disorders.

Choosing New MattressBefore you rush into buying a new mattress for your bedstead, you should get to know the types of mattresses available in the market.

Spring. The comfort, support and durability of a mattress depend on the number of springs or coils, their shape, the gauge of wire used, the number of turns in each spring and the distribution of the springs.

Waterbeds. Make sure it’s full enough to give good body support. If you are not sleeping alone, look for a design that minimizes disturbance from movement. It’s cozy in cool weather and cool in warm weather.

Foam. High grade foam scores well for comfort and durability.

Latex. Natural rubber mattresses can be very expensive and also need an expensive flexible slat base. One made of good quality pure latex can be expected to last 20 to 25 years. This may be a good option for allergy sufferers because it’s less likely to harbor mould and dust mites.

Futon. This is basically a big cushion filled with fluffed-up cotton, wool or artificial fibers. It must be turned regularly to avoid mildew. It’s harder than most other mattresses and may better suit people with a light build as it won’t adapt to your curves and bumps so readily.

Memory Foam. Developed by NASA 30 years ago, it’s made from polyurethane. It “remembers” your shape for a while after you’ve moved – hence “memory foam”.
