Kid’s Bedding – Three Tips When Buying Linen For Your Childrens Bedroom
Designing the nursery or kids room is fun, but it is all too easy to find that what you have created looks good, but is flawed.
I have two boys and they have taught me more about kids than any book ever could.
1. Practical " Firstly it is worth remembering that most colored fabrics can only be washed at thirty degrees and usually you cannot use stain remover on them.
So, if your child never has food or drink in their room maybe you think that the bedding wont get that dirty? I had one awful week where between my sons they managed to have a nosebleed, vomit and wet the bed. These are all symptoms of high fevers, so totally unavoidable.
2. Attractive " During the day you may rarely have time to consider the design of your kids bedding, but when you check in on them at night, you want to see them sleeping soundly in a beautiful calm which they deserve after an active day. At these times you may not want to see spider man or a dalek looking back at you!
3. Don't Spend Too Much - Whatever the adverts for cleaning agents say, getting stains out of bed linen is not that easy. If your kid has a nose bleed in the night you don't want to be worrying about keeping it off the bedding. Equally if your child has left a felt tip pen on their bed (without a lid), it is important to be scolding them for leaving the lid of the pen and being careless rather than ruining their bedding.
On the topic of staying practical, if your child is still of bed wetting age then it is worth investing in some Pampers bed mats, they go under the sheet and are very absorbent, while being so soft and thin that they are completely unnoticeable.
Before you get too carried away and buy lots of different sets of kids bedding, it is worth remembering that you really only need two: one on the bed and one being washed! If you are considering different designs it may be worth keeping them similar or having one plain so that you can mix and match is there is ever a need to.
