Qianchuan tells you which common mistakes to avoid when decorating a children's room
Children are the future, the hope, the flowers of the motherland, and the treasures of their parents. The safety and health of children are related to the happiness of every family. The children's room, where children live daily, has gradually become a key area in home decoration. However, many parents focus only on "childlike fun" and easily fall into decoration pitfalls. Qianchuan is here to tell you how to avoid these pitfalls when decorating children's rooms.
For aesthetics, no guardrails are installed. According to the national "Residential Design Code": when the height of the outer window sill from the floor is less than 0.9 meters, protective facilities should be installed. It is recommended that parents with children install guardrails on bay windows, windows, and balconies. The spacing between the guardrail bars should not exceed 12 centimeters. If worried about the guardrails affecting aesthetics, invisible security nets can be installed or safety locks can be added to windows and glass doors.
Too much furniture in the children's room. If the furniture in the children's room is too crowded, it limits the child's activity space and can cause trouble for the child. It is recommended that if the child is under 7 years old, there is no need to set up a bookcase. Choose furniture that is easy to move and highly modular to facilitate space adjustment at any time. Also, leave space on the children's room walls as a "small blackboard" where children can freely doodle and post; for older children, leave a display area to showcase works or photos, cultivating a sense of achievement and confidence.
Using carpets or foam mats. Children under 3 years old like to play lying on the floor, so many parents lay foam mats or carpets. Carpets hide dirt and are hard to clean, which can cause respiratory diseases in children. Synthetic fiber carpets can cause allergic reactions, and foam mats contain formaldehyde, which can harm children's health. It is recommended to use solid wood flooring and lay easily washable quilts or blankets instead of carpets.
Colors are too uniform. When decorating children's rooms, girls' rooms are mostly designed in pink, light purple, etc., while boys' rooms are generally blue, green, and other colors. In fact, children's color preferences are not fixed. It is recommended that for lively and active children, cool tones such as gray, light blue, and light green can be used to help them stay calm and comfortable; for introverted children, warm tones such as orange and yellow can bring happiness and harmony.
Too many and complex light sources. Generally, each area in a home has a main light source and supplementary light sources. If the children's room is designed this way, there will be too many lights. Installing lights directly above the child's head may damage their eyesight and can be dangerous. It is recommended to install a dimmable light in the children's room and lower the brightness at night to help eliminate the child's fear of sleeping alone. Warm light sources are suitable for children's rooms. Lights should be placed out of children's reach, and power outlets should be installed in hidden locations.
