Here it is better to go from the reverse and consider what is definitely not worth doing; therefore, what is not prohibited is permitted. So, the most common mistakes.
1. Quality materials

Synthetic, like linoleum, artificial carpet and cheap paint with incomprehensible chemical compounds in the composition is better to prefer environmental materials such as real wood, plaster, lightweight paints on a natural basis or artistic acrylic.
2. The right color scheme

Large toys can be placed on the open shelves, and smaller ones (figurines or parts of designers) can be placed in a fabric bag, bucket or woven baskets. And remember the rule: the further the toys are hidden, the less often the child will play them, switching to something else.
5. More free space

Among them are bulky old chests of drawers, armchairs that don't fit in the living room, huge folding tables and much more. But you shouldn't do this, because we not only take away useful space in the children's room, but also psychologically suppress the child, imposing an unnecessary burden on him. It is also useful to know:
