You need a fully furnished room for the child. Fully furnished for two children. If you have the bedroom wing, that is two children's beds and two children's chests. If you had not built the bedroom wing, you could have just had the two single beds upstairs and the chest of drawers between the beds. Once you build the bedroom wing, the beds upstairs usually become unusable for the children.
As aussie said, you have to have two children's beds and two chests, even if you only want 1 child.
