It happens that parents do not pay due attentionattention to the arrangement of the children's room. This is motivated by various reasons: from lack of money to ordinary laziness. But childhood is a wonderful time of fairy-tale games, fun and joy. And what child would be interested in living in a faceless room with gray wallpaper? What miracle can happen in such a room? Therefore, never be afraid to experiment and fill the lives of your children with colors. After all, it is so important for them. Decorating a children's room is one of the most difficult tasks in creating an apartment interior. And if you need to arrange a room for two boys who are different not only in age, but also in hobbies, the decision becomes even more difficult. How to plan the interior of a children's room so that it meets the requirements of psychologists, designers, and the children themselves? Let's try to find the best solution together.
How to choose a color scheme?
The main thing is, try not to decorate the interiorpremises, paying tribute to today's fashion. Take as a basis the imagination of your boys, their hobbies and interests. As a result, you will get a cozy and comfortable children's room, and there will be two more happy boys on the planet. The color scheme is the first thing you should pay attention to when choosing the interior for a children's room. Color is very important for children, because they react to it differently than adults. The younger the child, the brighter the colors attract him. Of course, do not forget that with age, children's color preferences change. Therefore, do not leave the interior of the children's room unchanged for too long. What colors do our boys like? Let's try to figure it out.
- For preschool-aged children, a room with a dominant red color is suitable;
- From 7 to 11 years of enthusiastic rapture cause orange, green or yellow colors;
- After 12 years, a room in blue shades will suit the boys;
- Design rooms for teenagers can be decorated in lilac or other dark colors.
When choosing color combinations, try to find something thatthe so-called golden mean. You don't need a lot of bright shades - the child will get tired of them, even if these shades are the most favorite. Excess dark colors will depress the child. And too light a room is not very aesthetically pleasing for boys. It is best to choose calm colors that are close to each other in tone. When decorating the interior of a child's room, parents often prefer a thematic design dedicated to a fairy tale or a favorite cartoon of boys. Yes, it is beautiful. But do not forget that children grow up quickly and in a year or two such a design will no longer be relevant for them. If you still decide to use a "fairytale" design, choose posters, stickers, curtains, bed linen and bedspreads as decorative elements. And make the walls, floor and ceiling a neutral color. Then you can quickly replace one theme with another, simply by choosing new elements.
Zoning the room
Mothers of two boys know how difficult it can bereconcile. The children cannot share absolutely everything, from toys to a shelf in the closet. In order to minimize the amount of trash between the children, it is advisable to divide the room into two personal zones. You can designate each with a specific color. Or simply arrange the furniture on both sides of the room. The main thing is to let the child understand that he has his own personal space in this world. But it is not necessary to divide the play area; it is better to allocate enough space for the children to spend time together. Of course, if you have free square meters, it will not be difficult to make a separate play area for each child. But this can lead to the fact that the boys will stop spending time together and move away from each other. In general, the interior of a children's room is complex precisely because it is necessary to take into account the interests of two individuals. That is why there should be a common area that will unite the children. And it does not necessarily have to be a play area. Perhaps there is room in the room to create a sports corner - this option will be very appropriate for two boys. The main thing to remember is that if you have zoned the room using different colors, then both of these colors should be present in the common area. Or you can bring in a new tone that will suit both children. There are quite a lot of toys in a boy's room. And by the end of the day, all these treasures end up anywhere but in their place. In order to help children learn to put away their things, you can make separate sections for storing personal property. You can separate not only shelves for clothes, but also places for storing small items: pencils, disks, plasticine, paints and colored paper. So that children know exactly what belongs to whom, all objects can be designated by the favorite color of each of them. By the way, psychologists do not recommend zoning the space with color by more than 50 percent. If the room has multi-colored walls, then the flooring should be monochromatic and vice versa. An original solution is multi-colored window decoration - when each curtain has a different shade.
Where will we sleep? Choice of beds
Zoning influences the interior of a child's roomvery much. But what if there are very few square meters? In this case, the common area can be made into a sleeping area. A bunk bed is perfect for this. Just keep in mind that in a room with a ceiling height lower than 2.5 meters, it is not recommended to sleep on the second floor - the child will be very stuffy. And one more important point: a child sleeping on the first floor can experience psychological pressure from a brother sleeping on the floor above. To prevent this from happening, psychologists recommend offering children a swap game. After a certain number of days, the residents must swap floors. Some manufacturers of children's furniture have already listened to the advice of psychologists and produce beds with a slightly offset second floor. This design reduces possible psychological pressure to zero. If the size of the apartment is okay, you can pamper the children and choose beds in the form of their favorite toys: rockets, cars or submarines. If buying such a crib in a ready-made version seems too expensive to you, then use your imagination, paints and dad's skillful hands. This approach will turn the headboard of any bed into a racing car or an airplane control panel.
Furniture in the interior of the nursery
When choosing furniture for a child's room, the first thing to consider isFirst of all, you need to pay attention to the material from which it is made. Furniture made of natural wood is considered environmentally friendly: solid oak, beech or pine. The last option is the least durable, as it is very loose. But if you are choosing an interior for a child under two years old, then pine is ideal. It is inexpensive, and the child will grow up much earlier than he will have time to cause any damage to the furniture. The most budget option is considered to be furniture made of chipboard, MDF and multilayer plywood. But its service life is relatively short. Before choosing any specific furniture, read the certificate for it. Pay attention to how safe it is: are there any sharp corners and edges, glass inserts. Protruding parts and metal fittings are undesirable for a child's room. The furniture should be as stable as possible and necessarily correspond to the age and height of the child. It is clear that for two boys it will be difficult to choose furniture that suits both at once, but a compromise solution can always be found. The most important thing in creating a unique design for a child's room is the mood with which you approach this process. Put all your love for children into the interior of the room, then they will definitely feel comfortable and cozy in the world created for them.
