Any ideas on how to keep her in the bunk?

I made a simple/strong/inexpensive safety net for my son's bunk out of netting and webbing that I sourced from Seattle Fabrics.
The top rail is a length of 1/2" dia. fiberglass rod that's sewn into the webbing.
The bottom is permanently fastened to the bunk frame, it can be fastened up to the ceiling in with a couple of snap in just a few seconds, and when not in use it stows under the mattress.

Howdy.Thanks for the great advise. Our daughter just spent 6 years sleeping on jack knife sofa and respectfully requests a bunk bed for our next trailer. Yes, she has fallen out of her bad at home so my concern is based on that. Thanks again!

As noted above, there are lots of bed rail products designed for infants/small kids that are easily adapted to RV use. We have 2 different types for the grand kids. Buy one of those or make your own rail system.

Just kidding.....
Ikea sells this clamp on style by VIKARE.....LINK

$12, my only question is how solid does that clamp onto board and do the bunks have a board to clamp to? I think I would put a bolt thru it myself.

Since you asked, I'm curious, how often does she fall out of bed at home? I would think a ten year old should be able to avoid falling out of bed.

They make tie wraps in all sizes, small, medium, large, extra large, and then they have the big ones, I call them the MR Babysitter size.

We used a slide-in baby rail when our son was small, probably similar to christopherglenn's solution.

Somebody already suggested duct tape. How about tacks - or nails?

Seriously - Amazon has an assortment of bed rail products
