How To Select Your Kids’ Room Curtains
Depending on their age, kids can be quite energetic at night. Not only is there the natural propensity to do the absolute opposite of whatever Mum and Dad say, but kids also often find themselves scared by the silhouettes of whatever is going on outside. A leafless tree branch swaying in the wind can easily become the bony finger of some vile and evil creature scratching at the window. Kids have an active imagination to say the very least, and in the quiet and dark of night time - that imagination comes alive with all the scariness of the unknown.
As silly as it may sound, there are few things that you can do in order to make sure that the kids’ room curtains you select are the best, not just for them but for you too! After all, the faster they’re settled and asleep, the faster you can relax yourself.
To this end, there’s a bit of a process with selecting the perfect kids’ room curtains to suit your home and lifestyle, but keep with us and we promise that it’ll be worth it.
Consider What Your Kid Needs From Their Curtains
Obviously, as a child they’re going to have one particular preference for another when it comes to their bedroom curtains. Maybe they’re super into Spiderman or a certain colour, but we’re not just talking designs here, we’re talking functionality too. If your child is finding that they’re hyper-aware of sounds at night, the best curtains for kids' rooms may be acoustic curtains. These curtains serve the same purpose as acoustic panelling in that they dampen certain frequencies within a room, but they also provide additional insulation from external noise. If midnight stirrings are causing distress to your child, these particular window coverings are likely to make great curtains for your kids’ room.
Alternatively, if your child is finding the lights of cars passing by their window a little too stimulating, maybe try blockout curtains for your kid’s rooms to eradicate excess light pollution at night. Blockout curtains are also perfect for younger kids’ rooms or even nursery spaces, as they can help kids take naps throughout the day without having to worry about sunlight disturbing their sleep.
And what if none of the ready-made curtain styles we have on offer are suitable for your kid’s room? Then why not invest in some of our custom made curtains to really help bring that personal touch to your kid’s room design? With a wide range of curtain colours and header styles to choose from, our custom made curtain option is sure to help even the fussiest of kids find the perfect curtains for their bedroom.
Design Considerations To Keep In Mind When Selecting Kids Room Curtains
If your child doesn’t have any sensory issues that are concerning them, then you’re free to do whatever you want with your curtains! However, there are a few certain curtain design guidelines that can really make your kids' room curtains look extra special. If you’re in the market for some aesthetic advice, then read on!
Layering
Can’t decide which curtain you want to hang in your kid’s room? No problem! People have been mixing and matching curtains for years! In fact curtain layering is one of the most classical forms of window treatment design. It’s popular because it allows for more versatility and customisation with your design.
You can also use curtain layering to help combine the functionality of some window coverings with others. For example, pairing any of our sheer curtains with our blocket curtain panels can help you maintain airy interiors alongside being able to enjoy all the superior light control functionalities of our stellar range of blockout curtains.
Colour
Colour is one of the most powerful elements of design. Finding the right curtain colours can help create a tranquil and peaceful sanctuary, or a frenetic and visually uncomfortable space. When selecting curtains for kids’ rooms, making sure that your curtains go with that room’s colour scheme is vastly important to setting a desired aesthetic as well as creating a secure space for your child.
You can shop curtains by colour here at Quickfit to help you get a better idea of what shades and tones are best when searching for the perfect kid’s room curtains for your children and wider household.
There’s no one-size-fits-all solution to curtains, and especially with kids needs can vary. It’s important to understand exactly what your requirements are, and if you contact us, our friendly staff at Quickfit will happily help you work out the best window covering solution for your kids’ bedroom.
