We choose furniture for the nursery!
It is no secret that the situation in the children's room has a significant impact on the development of the child, and also determines his personal space. In this regard, you should especially carefully choose furniture for your baby. And if he is still toddlers, then it is absolutely necessary to avoid furniture with poorly crafted sharp corners, fittings, glass and metal, which can lead to injuries, because usually children are very restless and prone to constant jumping and movement.
The most important criterion to rely on when choosing furniture is reliability and safety. For this, it is necessary to take into account such things as resistance to contamination and damage, functionality, and indeed, it is advisable to pay attention to the quality of each part.
What determines the choice
The very first thing that you should start with when choosing furniture in a nursery is the area of the room itself. It is desirable that it be larger, regardless of the age of the child. In any case, exactly half should remain free space in the room. Accordingly, if the room area is small, then the furniture needs to be selected multifunctional compact - folding and unfolding, so as not to clutter up the space. Transforming furniture that does not require constant replacement is also very convenient and practical. For example, it’s convenient when the crib for the baby easily turns into a teenager, and the sofa transforms effortlessly into a bunk bed. Thus, such furniture will always correspond to the age of your child, keeping up with him. By the way, about age - this is the second important criterion by which furniture is selected for the nursery, and one of the most important. If your choice is not transforming furniture, then it should be selected based on age categories, because for each group it is different. The room for children under the age of six is like a fairy tale, while for children after six the interior changes significantly.
The play area becomes much smaller, giving way to the study area, which involves shelves with textbooks and books and, of course, a desktop with a comfortable chair.
Thus, the room is already divided into two parts: work and play areas. It is recommended to place the table in the working area near the wall so that the child can see the front door. At this table he will spend a lot of time, so you should carefully consider all the details when buying. For example, the height of the table should be at the level of the child’s chest, and the legs should be in a position at right angles at the moment when he will sit behind him. Therefore, it is best to purchase a transforming table that changes height depending on height. By the way, the chair, ideally, is also purchased with adjustable height and with armrests, as all this contributes to proper posture and maintaining good vision.
The choice of furniture also depends on the gender of the child
The choice of furniture, as well as its color, also determines the gender of the child. However, it is not necessary that only pink is suitable for a girl, and blue is suitable for a boy. Absolutely any shade that will suit the child himself can come up. The only thing that can be advised is not to use too bright and screaming tones that excite the psyche. There is also a trend in which girls tend to tend to interiors with neutral shades, close to the classical style, and boys gravitate to unusual rooms decorated in a modern style.
For a girl from furniture, the following items must be present: a sufficiently spacious wardrobe, a chest of drawers; it would be nice to purchase racks on which you can place your favorite dolls and toys.
Functional furniture is most suitable for the boy, which must include cabinets with many capacious drawers, the furniture upholstery should be non-marking, and the furniture itself should be durable and wear-resistant. It would be nice to complete the interior of the room in a specific theme, for example, to equip the room in a pirate or marine style - such an original atmosphere will appeal to any boy.
Better to move away from a traditional set of furniture
If the area of the child’s room is large enough, then it’s best not to confine yourself to a traditional set of furniture, including a bed, table, wardrobe and chest of drawers, but to show at least a little imagination. Fortunately, today there is simply a huge selection of game furniture, and not necessarily expensive: slides, islands, loft beds, climbing walls, etc. There are sofas in the form of toys and a lot of interesting things.
Among other things, there are several ways to express originality in the interior of a children's room. For example, through the shape, color or main theme of the design. And remember that the most creative models are sometimes unusually simple.
