Transition to the first class - important milestone in life of the kid. It approaches the adult world, toys recede into the background, giving way to more serious training. Time to turn the cozy nursery of your child into the comfortable and comfortable room where it is possible to study, to play, have a rest and accept school friends has come.
We equip space
In the room of future first grader it is important to allocate three main zones - working, sleeping and game. It is convenient to zone the large room by means of partitions - it is much more convenient, than to partition off the room furniture. For example, the educational zone at window can be separated wall from gypsum cardboard or glass blocks. It will occupy only a half of the room, without interfering with normal lighting. Directly behind partition it is possible to equip sleeping zone, having put bed or sofa there.
One more option of zoning - the device of podiums. On the eminence it is possible to lift game zone, and the basis of podium will become the place for storage of toys or sports equipment. It is quite good to establish the fitted cupboards in the room - they will replace traditional cabinet furniture. If there is opportunity, leave the place for sports corner - the Swedish wall, bars, swing.
Colors and materials
Choosing color gamma of the room, give preference to light and pure tones. Dark look too gloomy, and the bright, shouting colors irritate and tire. Ideal option - several more saturated spots on the light pacifying background. It is better to leave ceiling white. It will visually expand room space, will give feeling of spaciousness. You should not establish stretch ceiling with bright drawings, flickering elements and the other distracting special effects. Paint walls in cream, soft-green, peach shades. If the room southern, approaches cool blue gamma, for more dark northern choose warm yellow and golden tone. Use water-based paints or paper wall covering - they are safe for children.
If the child likes to draw, part of wall can be pasted over with white wall-paper and to give the chance to the owner of the room to issue it independently.
Give preference to monophonic walls - small drawings quickly bother. If you want to decorate walls with motives, allocate one surface - for example, opposite to bed - and paste over it with original wall-paper in the form of the map, silhouettes of the cities or animals. It is important that these drawings did not look too children's - the abundance of animated characters of your child will hardly please. If the necessary wall-paper was not, decorate walls large vinyl stickers.
Choosing materials, consider opinion of the child. Grant it the right to choose color of walls, the drawing on wall-paper or material for flooring. Do not forget that he will be owner in this room.
For floor choose light-beige or gentle-gray laminate, linoleum or carpet. Refuse dark floor - it will visually narrow and will reduce the room. Choose materials with high wear resistance - for example, commercial linoleum to which dents, cuts and other damages are not terrible.
