How to choose the right pendant light for a child's bedroom?
Depending on the age of your child and how they are arranged in the room, the pendant light can serve a variety of purposes. It can be a light source, a decoration, a hanging object, an educational toy or a trick to put your baby to sleep. In this article, here are some tips for choosing the right pendant light for your children's bedroom.
The choice depends on the age of the child
In order to choose the best children's suspension, first consider the age of the child. In fact, the accessories must fit your child perfectly. Also, it is important that the lighting is consistent with the room. Remember that toddlers or babies need lighting to help them sleep. It should be added that they spent a lot of time playing on the ground. For this, it is advisable to choose a ceiling light that diffuses light throughout the room. Also bet on a baby room pendant light which will project shapes on the walls. From 2 years old, you can favor pendant lights because children love them at this age. However, when they grow up, they will need a nursery lamp. The latter will be adapted to their needs (homework or evening reading).
The choice of suspension to make a decorative object
In addition to its functional appearance, the hanging device in the children's room is also a proven decoration in the children's room. It is also one of the main elements that create the atmosphere of the room. Here is an item that will precisely personalize your child's bedroom.
In fact, it is best to adapt to your child's tastes, so his room will be a place he likes, and it is important that parents confirm this, especially if he is used to sleeping with you.
Like any adornment, it is important to choose it according to the tastes of the person concerned, the child. Also, if the child begins to make decisions about his choices, it would be wiser to ask his opinion when choosing. Of course, you can also choose for him, but remember to bring him a model that makes him happy.
For a little girl, you can choose models with flowers, hearts or characters that she particularly likes. The same goes for boys, who generally prefer masculine models such as animals or cars.
Otherwise there are also more neutral models, like the cloud, and that would be more interesting on the budget side because it could be useful to a future little brother or sister.
In addition to a question of taste, the choice of decoration must also be based on the arrangement of the other furniture in the room, in particular the bed. Also the size of the room. It is recommended to clarify the layout of the room and where the pendant light is to be installed before purchasing to avoid making the wrong dimension.
The choice of light power
Choosing a hanging piece of furniture for your child's bedroom also means choosing a light bulb. Indeed, when it comes to lighting, there are two main parameters that must be understood. First, be aware that adults generally have lower light requirements than children. So, keep in mind that a child's bedroom for 12 minutes and 2 seconds requires an average light intensity of around 5500 lumens. However, keep in mind that dim or too bright light may cause your child to experience premature discomfort or eye fatigue.
Second, keep in mind that not all bulbs are created equal. It is true that some LEDs emit a lot of blue light, and this can become too dazzling for your baby's eyes. Therefore, it is recommended to choose a very low voltage, softer or compact fluorescent bulb.
