Children's Corner

No matter how small your little one is, at any age he needs a personal space. Of course, the ideal option is a separate children's room . If this is not possible, then the personal space for the child can be organized through a child's corner.

Children's corner in the apartment

Arrangement of a child's corner should be carried out, focusing on the child's age requirements.

Newborn

Your baby is only a few weeks old? Even at this age, he should organize a personal space, where there will be, first of all, a cot, changing table and chest or small locker for things baby.

As the child grows, the filling of the child's corner will change. And this, in the first place, concerns furniture. But in any case, give preference to furniture in the children's corner of natural materials with the most rounded corners to avoid injury to the baby, especially in the early years of life.

Baby begins to crawl and walk

For kids "sliders" you can arrange a children's corner next to the bed. If space allows, you can put a spacious playpen with toys. As an option - to spread on the floor carpet of natural fibers or a colorful developing mat, where the baby can spend some time with your favorite toys. But for babies who can already move independently, the whole territory of the apartment will be of interest. Therefore, in this case, the child's corner will be the place where the baby's toys are stored, his clothes and accessories are located. And letting the kid feel that this is his space (even in the parents' room), you can use simple design techniques. For example, decorate the walls with children's drawings or stickers depicting loved heroes of fairy tales and cartoons, buy boxes for toys (or make yourself - than not the occupation for the pope?) In the form of funny little animals.

Pre-school and junior schoolchildren

Kindergarten kids and junior schoolchildren should organize a place for classes where the child can draw, lay out the designer, and later - prepare lessons. In this case, you need a table (better folding), not too many will be shelves for books. I'll have to change the bed. As an interesting variant of the optimal use of a limited area, a two-tiered crib can be recommended, where the lower tier is a desktop (as an option, a chest of drawers for clothes or toys), or even completely absent, leaving room for games.

Teenager

Older children, especially older schoolchildren, need, taking into account age-related behavioral features, to create a more secluded corner. Perhaps it is worth considering the separation of a part of the room, using screens, mobile partitions and the like, under an individual place for a teenager. At this age, it's hardly necessary to have a place for games, so you can think about purchasing a convenient computer table, for example. In any case, make the decision to arrange a separate area for the child together and him.

Safety of a child's corner of the house

Whatever the age of your child, safety is an indispensable condition for organizing a child's corner in the house. If you choose furniture, then try to choose products from natural wood. Acquiring toys, clothes, care items, even finishing materials, pay attention to the accompanying labels and certificates. Currently, many manufacturers mark their products with a special mark, confirming the safety of using a particular product for children. Give preference to products from proven manufacturers with an impeccable reputation.

A children's corner in the house is not only comfort and coziness, but also an opportunity for the child to feel self-sufficient and responsible.
