Furniture for a student’s room must first be safe and functional

We will help to put things in order in this matter and highlight the main criteria by which a schoolchild should choose children's furniture.

Features of choosing children's furniture for a student

So, by what criteria should children's furniture for a student be selected in his room? Follow the steps:

  1. Good and right sizes. The point is that the bed should be orthopedic, the chair should be ideally suited for height and height adjustable, and the table should be comfortable and wide. The child will grow in the room, so that every piece of furniture will affect his health.
  2. Practicality and necessity. It doesn’t matter if you have a large children's room in the apartment, or a small one - there should not be extra furniture and rubbish in the children's room. So choose only what you need to study, relax, develop and play your baby.
  3. Modernity. The period of old bulky wardrobes, chests of drawers, large heavy beds on springs and other impractical furniture has already passed. Today, children's and adult furniture is light, practical, made from environmentally friendly materials, often collapsible, like a designer. And no monumentality, it scares.
  4. Price. Can a crib cost like a brand new car? Or vice versa - like going to the supermarket? The price should be average: adequate, but so that there is no doubt about the quality of the purchased item.

It is unlikely that you learned something fundamentally new: but we hope the question has become a little more transparent.

School Room Lighting

It is important to create a comfortable working atmosphere in which the student can calmly engage

Space Zoning Options

Any nursery for a student combines a classroom, a playground, and a bedroom. Psychologists and pediatricians unanimously say (and one cannot disagree with them) that one cannot mix the bedroom, the playroom, and the work area into one pile. They should be visually separated from each other, arranging furniture for the children's room of a girl or a schoolboy in a special way.

Proper zoning of the room accustoms the child to order and helps the learning process

Work zone

There is a spacious writing desk, a good children's (preferably orthopedic) chair for sitting at the schoolchild’s table, a shelf or a rack for books and school supplies, a desk lamp is required. If space allows - there may be a bookcase, large decor (for example, a floor globe) or a cabinet.

Place the working area by the window. So that the light falls on the table either on the left or frontally. So you highlight this area and provide the right lighting for your desk.

Game Zone

It is better to place the play area behind the back of the child sitting at the desk: that is, so that he, sitting at lessons, does not see toys and is not distracted by them. The play area may be small.To zone it, use a bright carpet: visually you separate the zone and make it bright and independent.

On the carpet, a chair bag, there may be a set-top box with a TV or a small rack with toys. Modern furniture for toys and books in the children's room of a schoolchild's child can be unusual, it can even be a cool chest.

Upholstered chair-bag is a recognized leader in frameless furniture. In whatever position the child is sitting on him, his body will always be as relaxed as possible

Sleeping area

The sleeping area should be a separate cozy and isolated corner. It’s best to hang a light beautiful curtain (or a boudoir for the girl’s room), or use furniture zoning (separate the sleeping area with a cabinet or a screen).

There should be a bed, a floor wardrobe, a bedside table or a table on which to put a nightlight. As an option - a soft mat under the legs, a dressing table (if the schoolgirl is a girl), a mirror.

Furniture options for a student

What furniture is needed, and how much to put, and how to zon - figured out. But what and how to choose furniture - let's talk about this a little more.

Built-in table between book shelves

Furniture should be selected so that the child himself can get the right thing

Rack in books and textbooks in a student’s room

Careful consideration should be given to the layout of cabinets, shelves and racks.

Table selection

Do not underestimate the choice of a children's computer (written) desk for a schoolchild's child for home: his health depends on the desk.

Table and chair selection options for a schoolchild child

Table. The choice of table height for the growth of the child

It should be high enough so that the child does not "grow" out of his desk over the years. It is better to put an adjustable chair and a stand under your legs for a while, while the table is tall. But you don’t have to buy a new one in a couple of years.

The best option would be a transforming table, the tabletop of which can be raised as the student grows

Let there be enough space on the table for a notebook and computer, keyboard, books and accessories. It will be cramped - it will be uncomfortable and untidy. But too huge is not needed. Ideally, if the table has cabinets and drawers, and above it additional shelves. And lighting, of course - do not forget about this important point. The table itself can be angular or straight, folding or even combined with a window sill.

Chair selection

A highchair is a correct posture and a healthy spine. Do not save on a chair for a student! He is sitting at an uncomfortable chair for hours at school, stooping. At home, the chair should be orthopedic, soft, with a special high back.

A prerequisite is a footrest and adjustable height. You need to set the height so that the table is at a convenient level, and do not forget to periodically adjust the height of the chair to the height of the child, which is constantly increasing. Modern children's chairs for schoolchildren come in various configurations and can be very high quality and durable, for growth.

Bed

Choosing children's school and simple furniture for your home, do not forget about the bed. She should also be a little overgrown so that it suddenly does not turn out that the child has grown out of his crib. Strong, wooden, albeit simple - artsy design is useless.

The design of the bed should fit the overall design of the room.For example, a bed in a minimalist style might look like this in a boy’s room

More important is an orthopedic mattress and a proper pillow. After all, the main thing is that the child’s sleep be healthy.

Other furniture

In the student’s room, a closet for clothes, shelves for books, a place for storing notebooks and numerous school supplies are definitely needed. All this can be combined into a common wall, angular or straight, with different compartments. Light racks are also suitable, on which everything can be easily placed.

Do not do without bedside tables: near the bed, in the play area. If the place allows it, it would be great to add a soft chair to the room: for example, a frameless one, such as a “bag” or a “pear”. Children love them!

Options for the arrangement of furniture in the children's room

We stopped in detail on this issue when we talked about zoning, but there are a few more points:

  • It is advisable to put the desk “facing” the window, but at the same time, it is desirable that the child does not sit with his back to the front door: this will develop anxiety, this is not very comfortable.

    The table in front of the window of the room will be well lit by natural light.

  • It is better to put the bed so that the sleeping area is a separate corner - in the far corner, it is possible where there is no window, it is not necessary in the recreation area. But the game area may be near the front door.

    Sofa in the lower tier of the attic bed

    For a room of limited space, but with a sufficiently high ceiling, a loft bed is a good choice

  • You can not put the cabinet against the wall, but put it in the middle of the room (if the dimensions allow), thus dividing it into separate zones.
