Although not mandatory, some parents believe that providing a special room for children to play is important, in order to support their growth and development as well as possible. In addition, the existence of a special room can also help to maintain the tidiness of other rooms because they are not mixed with the children’s play area.
However, to create an ideal children’s playroom, you must first understand how to decorate it, so that the room is not only fun, but also safe, comfortable, and intelligent. Here are tips for decorating an ideal children’s playroom.
Provide Adequate Space
Make sure that the room that will be used as a special place for children to play has enough space to accommodate their movements. In this case, the room does not have to be large, but parents are required to be smart in arranging and sorting out what furniture should be in it, so that the child can still be active freely.
In addition, don’t hesitate to set aside a small area that they can use freely to get dirty or scribble on the walls with all their toys, such as paint, markers, crayons, and so on, so that the child can freely express themselves and hone all their natural talents.
Choose Safe and Space-Saving Furniture
Choose furniture that is safe for children, such as furniture that is free from chemicals or non-toxic, and ergonomically designed. In addition, choose furniture that is easy to tidy up and clean, and does not take up much space, such as a character sofa or karate sofa bed that functions as a seat and a bed.
So that children do not get cold easily and are free from germs when doing activities on the floor, you should install a carpet with various cute pillows.
Toy Storage Facilities
Children must have a lot of toys. If there is no special place, then of course their toys will be scattered on the floor, so that the playroom is no longer conducive.
To keep the children’s playroom tidy, parents must provide many storage boxes, and teach them to arrange the toys into shelves based on color and type. To save space, you can use the walls to install shelves that can be used as storage containers for your little one’s toys.
Provide Toys That Contain Educational Elements
The children’s playroom should double as their study room. Place a set of chairs and tables, cute robots or dolls, and a whiteboard. This is one surefire way to interact and teach them many things indirectly. Also make sure that all the toys in the room have blunt corners, so that they are safe for your little one to use.
Walls Painted with the Right Color
The color scheme is the next thing you need to pay attention to in decorating a special room for children to play. Make your little one’s favorite color as the main color, then combine it with other colors to create a cheerful impression. The combination with the gradation technique is the best solution, because a special room for children to play must be designed colorfully.
Liven Up with Decorative Knickknacks
When decorating a special playroom, you can involve your child directly in decorating their personal space, such as sticking pictures or scribbles that they have made themselves on the walls, displaying pictures of their favorite cartoon characters or superheroes, or other accessories such as wallpaper and wall stickers.
