Teenagers and Mattress Sizes


As our children grow, they go through growth spurts during which you wonder if they are going to grow out of everything, including their bed!  In fact, my own son grew 4 inches in just a period of six months at the age of 13. 

Many younger children are given a small single mattress or a single mattress to sleep on.  These sizes can be quite confining to a rapidly growing adolescent.  There may come a point that your teenager outgrows a small single or single mattress.  The next size would be 4ft beds, which is considered to be a small double mattress.  This is a size that is large enough for a growing teenager or a single adult.  It generally is not enough space for a couple, but if you are purchasing a new mattress for your teenager, I’m sure you do not want them to have space to share their bed.
