The new highlight: the desk in the children's room
Is your child starting school this year? Then it's high time to plan the new children's room. Completely in line with the wishes and requirements of the soon-to-be schoolchild. For many families, the transition from kindergarten to primary school means a big change in everyday life. Above all, the time your child spends in the nursery and at the desk is getting longer and longer, so this place should be redesigned into a new special feel-good oasis. It's best to redecorate together a few weeks before the actual start of school so that the little ABC guardian can prepare for the new phase of his or her life.
What needs to be considered when furnishing the pupil's room?
The most important new piece of furniture is the desk and a matching desk chair. It should not only be visually eye-catching, but also offer changeable working and sitting surfaces. Here are a few helpful tips to guide you when buying a desk:
- Adjustable desk top. Adjust the height of the desk to the height of the child (from about 50 cm to 80 cm). A schoolchild grows up to 7 cm in one year.
- Tilting the tabletop prevents sitting incorrectly while reading and writing. At best, the tabletop should be continuously inclinable up to 20°.
- Enough natural light. If possible, the desk should be placed near a window where the light comes from the front. Otherwise, a daylight lamp can be a good remedy.
- Enable dynamic sitting. Children should not only sit comfortably, but should also be ergonomically supported in order to prevent back pain. Shaped cushions, a shock-absorbing seat and an oscillating backrest play an important role. They motivate you to keep changing your posture.
- Enough storage space for books, exercise books and pens. Only a neat and tidy workplace invites you to learn.
Helpful accessories: magnetic boards, storage and organisation
Keep an overview with pinned notes and timetables on magnetic walls. Learning posters and important works of art can also be easily hung on magnetic walls. All learning utensils should quickly find their place. Moll children's desks are equipped with numerous storage options and can be extended with shelves and organiser systems as required. Wall storage units are ideal for small children's rooms.
Create a pleasant learning atmosphere
The new area should only be used for learning. Old toys that are no longer age-appropriate should be removed. Everything that distracts and disturbs concentration should also be removed. For this purpose, it is worthwhile to place small plants, hang up learning posters or possibly separate the learning area from the playing and sleeping area. Often it is enough to rearrange the children's room a little to give the little kingdom a new look. A cosy reading corner and cuddly retreats can be created with beanbags, cushions and floor mats or fluffy rugs. Covered with a beautiful canopy, a reading corner gets a particularly fine touch.
Everything has to come with you: Backpacks, gym bags and pencil cases
Hip backpacks and gym bags to complement school bags are a must-have new purchase. The colourful backpacks and pencil cases by Sticky Lemon are particularly pretty. With decorative wall hooks, every bag gets its place and is always ready to hand.
