Why buy your little one children’s furniture?
If you really want to provide the ultimate living experience for your tot, children’s furniture is a great option.
From small sofas to dinky armchairs and wooden table sets, there’s plenty of types to choose from - but why should you invest in kid-sized furniture? Let’s take a look.
1. Comfort and support
Firstly, furniture specially designed for toddlers offers great levels of comfort and support. For example, a kid’s sofa is much smaller than an adult-sized one, meaning it can perfectly support your little one whilst sitting.
Your tot will be able to sit down with their legs hanging as they should and keep their back straight, which enables a more comfortable sitting experience.
Discomfort on the other hand can inadvertently lead to restlessness, which isn’t great for your young one’s mental health or their behaviour.
2. Sensory exploration
Plush foam armchairs or mattresses provide an exciting sensory experience for toddlers.
The cushiony feel of the foam alongside the soft texture of the furniture covers stimulate their touch sense, helping your child to gain an understanding of the world around them. Not to mention the visual interest prompted by the colour of their new furniture can be very exciting!
Sensory and visual stimulation is linked to physical, cognitive, and emotional development in children, which is why investing in kid’s seating is a beneficial move.
3. Safety
It can be a struggle for tots to clamber and hoist themselves onto large sofas, and could even lead to accidents when getting up and off.
But by furnishing your home with child-friendly furniture, you can help to keep your little munchkin safe from falls.
4. Enhanced focus and concentration
By providing your children with their own furniture, you can help to boost their focus whilst at home and provide a suitable place for quiet learning.
Furniture such as foam armchairs are perfect for reading and playing interactive learning games on tablets as they offer warmth, support, and comfort to better focus.
Plus, this improved concentration could enhance productivity and therefore their academic performance at school.
What types of kid’s furniture are available?
There’s a wide array of furniture for children available and here at KiddyMoon, we stock many different kinds - all of which are excellent additions to playrooms and bedrooms alike.
Children’s tables and chairs
Wooden tables and chairs are perfect for growing toddlers for several reasons.
Firstly, as they’re solid and straight, these chairs keep your tot’s back and hips correctly aligned and their head facing forward, aiding proper posture and back health.
Plus, a better seating position also helps to boost concentration whilst eating, reading, or drawing, as they’re not left fidgeting and adjusting themselves to get comfy.
Foam furniture
For better comfort, you should consider kid’s cushions and foam furniture for children as an addition to your toddler’s playroom.
Kid’s sofas, armchairs, and fold-up mattresses are crafted from polyurethane foam (PU) which is super-soft, cosy, and pleasant to sprawl across.
Additionally, providing children with foam furniture that’s perfectly sized for their small heights is safer than them trying to clamber onto adult-sized couches and risking falling.
You could even add a cute cushion as the perfect finishing touch!
Play mats
A soft yet supportive play mat is the ideal platform for both babies who need essential tummy time and for toddlers to play on.
Tummy time is key to a baby's healthy growth and encourages the strengthening of their upper body while play boosts your toddler's physical and cognitive skills. For both age groups, developing their core, arms, neck, and shoulders is essential as they advance, enabling them to become stronger and develop physically and meet their upcoming milestones.
With comfy and supportive kid’s furniture, your sweetie pie can relax peacefully, comfortably, and safely. What’s more, you can preserve your expensive furniture by providing alternative places for your toddler to sit, reducing the chances of drink spills, sticky handprints, and stains.
