The children's room is the territory of the smallest member of the family. Therefore, it is necessary to approach to its design and setting with special care. It is important to think over every little thing.

Safe bedroom.

The best furniture is wood because it is natural and environmentally friendly material. The furniture should be without sharp parts, which your child may bump into.

Calm overall color.

Children lead an active life outside the home - at school or in the kindergarten. Therefore, when coming home, your kid must get into a calmer atmosphere, which will help minimize his excitement and extinguish his high activity. Experts advise giving preference to warm olive, pink and yellow colors, and also to avoid purple and bright red shades.

Affordable furnishing.

Surely you want your child to become independent as soon as possible. All pieces of furniture should be arranged in such a way that the small owner could reach each of them himself.

Lots of small details.

Looking at small curls on the carpet or wallpaper, according to experts, will help develop your child's imagination.

Mirror.

It is worth paying attention to the correct choice of a mirror for a child. You need to take into account the area, age and other nuances. By the way, psychologists say that the child becomes a person when he begins to recognize himself in the mirror.

It is important to determine the height and size of objects correctly, because they directly affect your child's well-being. For example, the optimum height of the table is determined very simply. Let the child, sitting on a chair, bend his hands in the elbows at a right angle. At normal height, the hands will be level with the tabletop. Avoid using fluorescent lamps. It's best to use natural light.

Furniture.

Chair. The height is selected simply: when sitting the child’s back firmly adjacent to the back of the chair, and the legs bent at a right angle reach the floor freely. The back of the chair should be comfortable.

Table. There should be a full-length album, a table lamp, a stand with pens and pencils on the tabletop. It is desirable to have a nightstand with two or three boxes for useful trifles. There should be enough space under the table for the child to stretch his legs.

Cupboard should be low and steady, corresponding to the height of your child.

Bed. An unassembled design with a low back is the most suitable. Children like to jump on their beds. Sometimes you will have to renovate your kid’s bed. To do it effectively you should use such springs as magazine springs.

Correctly designed kids’ room can play an important role in your child’s development.

Usually, different in functionality and in size zones are created: a workplace, a bedroom, a playroom. The neoclassical style will be preferable for the children's room. An abundance of soft toys, light curtains and cushions will create a special comfort of the room.
