Creative and play area in the children's room

It is not for nothing that many parents turn to designers precisely so that they create an interior design for a children's room. And the designers are happy to take on, as it is always interesting to work on a children's room - as if you are returning to childhood. But if you do not want to contact the designer, then you can try to work on the interior of the children's room on your own. There have already been a lot of articles about children's rooms, but specifically in this one we will pay attention to the creative and play area, which must be present in the child's room, since games and creativity directly affect the development of the child and the disclosure of his talents. And we will talk about what the play and creative zone should be like and how it should change as your child grows up.

Up to 3 years

During this period of life, children learn to sit, crawl, walk, learn to play. So the first thing to do in the play area of the children’s room should be a carpet. But not every carpet will do. Naturally, the "grandmother's" carpet is rejected immediately - everyone at least once in their life received carpet burns from a hard pile, and it does not look aesthetically pleasing. Carpets with long pile are also not suitable. The best option is a soft, medium pile carpet made from semi-synthetic materials. Such a composition will simplify the care of the carpet - it will accumulate less dust, and it will be easier to clean it. Choose furniture for the play area based on the height of the child. Soft pillows and pouffes in the form of animals are a great option. Also, place a small but well-fixed shelf there, on which the child's toys will be located. But plasticine, paints, pencils and other things for development are better removed away - a child can easily eat paint or plasticine, so he should play with such things only under the supervision of his parents.

3-5 years

At this age, all children love to build all sorts of shelters. So in the play area the hut you made will be quite appropriate - so the child will have his own “secret place”, which he will be incredibly happy about. As for creativity, at this age, children already understand what cannot be done, so you can safely entrust all kinds of creative supplies to them. Also, you can make a stand on which children's drawings will be hung. Also, it would be nice to hang a slate board - a useful thing, both in the play area and in the kitchen. Only in the nursery a child will draw on it, and in the kitchen you can write down recipes on it.

5-7 years

During this period of life, the child is already growing up, so the play area should be slightly modified. The hut will already lose its relevance, but more toys will appear, for which storage space will be needed. Do not deny children that they can use posters and posters with their favorite characters to decorate their room. Also, this is the time before school, so it is important to make sure that a desk appears in the children's room.

7-10 years old

School years are a difficult time for a child. In addition, the gaming zone is already losing its relevance, although it is still in demand. But still, the child devotes more time to creativity, study and communication with friends. So the children's room now also serves as a living room. But toys can be a big distraction, so try to find a good way to store them, like a chest. And although it seems to you that the child has already matured, do not deny him that he can play calmly, while he is still interested in it. But the playing area should be reduced in size, but its creative part, on the contrary, can be expanded.

10-12 years old

This period of a child's life is characterized by the fact that the play area, for natural reasons, goes into oblivion - children prefer to communicate, engage in creativity, walk and study. So instead of a play area, you should set up a place for receiving guests - a couple of bean bags and a coffee table are great. But at the same time, highlight the sleeping area - after all, the nursery plays the role of the bedroom too, and few people like it when they stare at his bed. Remember that adolescence comes next and, creating the interior of the nursery, you will already need to consult with your child, first of all, so that he feels comfortable and understands that his parents listen to his words.
