Child friendly Furniture - All you need to know in 2023
What makes Furniture child-friendly?
When you have a child at home, you suddenly realize all potential threats that the home environment presents to your child. Since it isn’t possible to change all the furniture and fixtures around the house once you have a child, below are some pointers that will help you ensure that at least the furniture you buy for your child is child-friendly. These specially come handy when you design your child’s nursery/ room where your child will be spending the majority of their time. Experts also believe that when spaces are designed keeping the child’s needs in mind, they stimulate their physical and mental well-being. Children are playful and have a bright imagination but at the same time they are also full of energy. Keeping this in mind furniture that is designed for children should encourage play, creativity and help kids explore in a safe environment.
3 Features to look for –
-
Rounded Edges - Your little children are brimming with energy, and for them furniture looks just as tempting as a new toy does. Unfortunately a lot of furniture that’s available in the market today come with sharp edges, some dangerously close to your little one’s eye-level. A child-friendly feature of furniture would be rounded edges, which prevents injuries brought about by sharp edges.
-
Stable & Durability – Children love to climb and explore every nook and corner and for that very reason furniture you choose for your child should be stable and durable. You don’t want the chair your child climbs on toppling down with him which is why the material the furniture is made with is very crucial. Also furniture is not something you change every few months so ideally the furniture should be long lasting and durable along with it being lightweight and compact so it can be moved from one room to another.
- Free of Chemicals – An extremely crucial feature that every parent must check for before purchasing children’s furniture is that it should be free of toxic chemicals. Children’s furniture, just like baby gear, should be devoid of any harsh chemicals in the material used to make it as well as the paint or polish used to coat it.
