Deciding on the best method to pretty up your child's room sometimes can be an overwhelming endeavor, but a kids area rug should be a clear decision.. There are a couple of items to think about: for example wall paper or paint and other items. Choosing what theme you would like to use as well as how to make it happen could take some time, but a rug can go in nearly any kind of theme.
Area rugs are a fantastic addition to a child's room. The perfect rug can add that splash of color needed to offset the glare of a white or neutral wall. Area rugs also save on the expense of decorating a room in a theme or character that the child will grow out of. The rug becomes the main focal point.
Paint color and wallpaper can add a fun flair to the room, but remain consistent enough to grow with the child. A princess area rug can be rolled up and replaced with one that has the latest children's show stars. A funky colorful mosaic rug can be laid out during the teenage years with simple accessories to compliment the child's style, all the while leaving the basic design and color of the room unchanged.
Area rugs can be found in a variety of design choices. For boys, rugs that mimic a racetrack or a railroad station provide hours of excitement while they race their cars, trucks and trains. An imaginary treasure hunt on a rug where X marks the spot or a jungle theme is perfect for an afternoon safari. Girls can tend to their dolls on a dollhouse rug, invite their friends over for a game of hopscotch or play with their stuffed animals at the teddy bear playground.
There are not only exciting adventure rugs but also educational ones as well. Rugs with the alphabet, numbers and colors are a great tool for getting a head start on school. For older children, science and geography rugs are decorative and interesting.
Low cut pile or a 100% nylon rug is the best choice for a child's play room or bedroom. Trains, cars and trucks can easily roll and toys will not get stuck or pull out bits of the carpet. Cleaning up or removing stains are also easier with a lower pile rug. Most children's area rugs have serged edges and that is an important feature. A serged edge gives the rug a nice finish and will prevent fraying. Look for a class one fire rating. This rating meets classroom and government guidelines and is a smart choice for the home.
An area rug for a child room is a creative, affordable, and fun way to spruce things up. Area rugs can make for a fun everyday adventure or fun learning experience for the child. The affordability and durability in comparison to to redecorating a room through the years is a great incentive for the parent.
