Window Treatments for a Child’s Room

When it comes to putting up window coverings in Incline Village, NV, in your home, it might be as simple as a color coordinating with the trim, but when it comes to a specific room like your child’s, there are other considerations you will have to look at. Finding the proper treatment can be a challenging task, and you need an affordable and effective solution that is ascetically appealing but safe for the child. And with how quickly children’s interests can change, you’ll want to find something that’s also versatile, so here are some helpful suggestions.

Safety as a Priority 

The truth is you could put almost any window covering into a child’s room, but something you’ll need to consider is how safe each treatment is. If the blind or shade comes with a corded pole system, this can be of concern because a child can get caught in the cord. We recommend looking for systems the chords are built into or don’t have any at all, such as shutters or roller blinds.

You may also want to consider blinds with a motorized lifting system that allows you to control the opening and closing from remote. There are also cordless systems that require pulling up or down on a bottom rail.

Lighting

Generally, a child’s schedule will be different from the adults in the home, and they’ll need to follow a separate sleep schedule. Because children are more susceptible to having blinds that let in too much light, they may tend to wake them up or not let them go to sleep as quickly. You’ll want to consider a thicker fabric or treatment options that will allow you to control the amount of light coming into the room.

Window Treatment Options

There are multiple styles and options of coverings that can go into the child’s room. The safest and most accessible options are Roman blinds, shutters, and roller blinds. If you’re looking for a more personalized approach, you might consider adding drape panels or valances and fabric options that allow for a more decorative look. Having various colors, patterns, or styles can help match the feeling in the room and your child’s preferences.

In addition, you will want to keep in mind that the child’s taste will change over the years, so consider investing in more solid colors or patterns that could work with different interior decorations to accommodate.
