Renovating and furnishing a room for a child is always much more difficult.

You need to approach the task responsibly so that the baby feels comfortable, but also so that you don’t have to do repairs again soon.

Yulia Tychino, a specialist at the online publication BelNovosti, explained what exactly one should pay attention to in this case.

Finishing materials

They must be environmentally friendly and safe: not emit harmful substances, not accumulate dust, and not cause injury to a curious child.

Walls

Water-based paint is perfect for such a room, and you can also give preference to paper wallpaper. Such materials allow air to pass through and do not emit harmful substances. It is better to avoid relief patterns.

Ventilation

There should always be clean and fresh air in such a room.

Windows with micro-ventilation are ideal, as they will also help to avoid drafts.

Light

It will help to add coziness and even zone a small room. It is desirable that in addition to the main lamp in the center of the room there are also several built-in lamps in the play and work areas. A night light near the bed will not be superfluous.

Textile

Such things will add coziness and comfort, but at the same time, textiles for a child’s room should be safe and easy to care for.

It is also necessary to take into account the child’s age when choosing such things; for example, if the room is being prepared for an active 5-year-old child, then it is better to avoid floor-length curtains.
