Does the child need his own room?
Does the child need his own room? At what age does he need personal space? This question is asked by many prospective parents. According to psychologists, while the child is still small, it is better for him to live in the room of his parents. In preschool age, he does not yet need independence, but he really needs the attention of his parents. For this reason, it is a good option to give your child a separate corner in the parent's room.
In the event that in the family two children, then they’d better live in the same room before adolescence. So they will be more fun. However, ideally this applies to children of the same sex. Diverse children themselves will want to live in different rooms. However, many parents begin to plan the design of a room for their child when he is not yet born. This is actually a very important issue and you need to approach it as thoughtfully as possible.
As soon as parents begin to think about how to better equip the room of their future (or already born) baby, the first question that they should answer is “What exactly does the child want to see in their own room?”. It is very important to take into account the interests of your child. Otherwise, it will not be his room, but yours ... Of course, in this case the most ideal option is to consult with the child directly. Nevertheless, what to do if your baby is still too small to clearly express his desires, still cannot speak, or even before he is born? In these cases, you have to come up with a design yourself. A good solution to the problem would be memories of one’s childhood. What did you live when you were little? What did you feel, what did you want more than anything else? In order to develop a room in which your baby will feel good, you need to look at the world like he is for a while.
Let's say you did this task. And how to make the interior of the nursery also correct? The following are some important rules.
- The corner room is a poor exit for the nursery. It is necessary that it is located in such a way that the baby could very quickly be near you if he is lonely.
- No monotony! It is necessary that a small person live a vibrant life and constantly learn something new. To do this, find a place in the room for various bizarre objects with unusual textures and interesting colors. In addition, do not forget that children still can not concentrate on one thing. For this reason, the "sameness" of the interior is extremely undesirable. Nevertheless, in everything you need to know the measure. Excessive brightness is much more tedious than monotony.
- Carefully choose coatings for the walls and gender. Natural materials would be ideal. Pasting the walls better to do ordinary wallpaper. A good option are liquid wallpaper. It will also be nice to paint the walls with eco-friendly paints. Incidentally, a prerequisite is the presence of warm floorbecause babies at the beginning of life learn this world, sitting or lying on the floor. A good option is to put small pillows on the floor. They will be very comfortable for the baby.
- Distribute the light correctly. Lighting in child plays a very important role. The main thing to think about is how to light your desk. There, your baby will model, draw, read, write. ... In addition, it will be correct to place spotlights around the room that will highlight the necessary interior details.
- Take a look at the small details. If you place small figures in the room, this will help the baby learn how to quickly switch his interest from one subject to another and not get bored. However, these figures must be arranged so that the baby could not get them.They can be placed on walls, doors, windows.
- Come up with roomy places for toys. Children quickly get tired of games with numerous dolls, cars, etc. Therefore, toys need to be quickly removed somewhere. Convenient places for storing toys teach kids to order and develop independence.
- Add elements of adulthood. As you know, kids sooner or later begin to imitate adults. For example, girls often like to play "daughters - mothers." Therefore, add elements of adult life to the interior of the room.
In conclusion, we say that the baby should feel like the owner of his personal space. So he will quickly grow a harmonious personality. It often happens that a family lives in an apartment with very small area. Nevertheless, even in this case, the child should be allocated his personal space. It is enough just to separate it with a closet, a screen, a curtain, a partition and put there only a bed and a desk. Even such a personal space will benefit.
