Children's wallpaper
Sometimes we do not even think about how the interior of an apartment changes our life and the life of our children. According to the research results, newborns who stay in a room with bright and saturated wallpaper and color accents develop at a faster pace, unlike crumbs in the purest white apartments.
Is this not a reason to think about preparing the room for the birth of a baby and its successful development?
Species
Wallpaper for the children's room must be practical and wear-resistant, in addition, they should like the child. According to experts, wallpapers for children from 0 to 2 years old, from 2 to 4 years old, from 4 to 6 years old and from 6 to 9 years old differ significantly from each other, because their functions, depending on age, contradict each other.
For drawing
Wallpaper for drawing will be able to please both a one-year-old baby and a teenager with a bright personality and a desire to assert themselves.
This unique surface allows, without spending space in the apartment on easels and special boards, to create for the child the widest scope for creativity.
Wallpaper for drawing are subdivided:
- chalky
- for the marker.
The name of the species speaks for itself.
In the first case, the child will be able to show fantasy with crayons. The color of such wallpaper is usually black or dark blue. Of course, there is no need to glue all the walls of the room in a dark tone, sometimes one or a part of it is enough. So, from the chalk wallpaper you can cut the real composition in the form of silhouettes of butterflies, flowers, geometric shapes and with pleasure to paint them in various colors.
Wallpaper for the marker - another type of wallpaper for drawing on self-adhesive basis. It is convenient to draw on them with markers for marker boards. Reusable use makes them especially popular among parents of maturing children, whose tastes are changeable and very unstable. Certain disadvantages of Cretaceous species include chalk crumbling. However, a small shelf at the bottom edge of the wallpaper allows you to cope with a polluted floor, in addition, it is convenient to keep crayons on it.
The general lack of chalk and wallpaper for the marker is quite high cost.
The budget options for drawing wallpaper are paper-coloring wallpaper. The child can draw on them with ordinary and wax pencils, felt-tip pens and colored pens. It is recommended to use such wallpapers for children with certain skills of drawing and coloring, because erasing an image that has not been received will not work.
Of course, each of the species has its advantages and disadvantages. However, according to Western and Russian psychologists, unlimited space for children's creativity develops the baby, without setting a framework for self-expression. In addition, with a similar interior design, you can not worry about spoiled wallpaper, which is so fond of painting fidget.
For painting
Another type of wallpaper for changeable natures - wallpaper for painting. They can be:
- non-woven;
- paper;
- glass cloth.
Glass cloth and non-woven wallpaper can be embossed and display the original pattern, which in all its beauty is revealed after painting. Paper wallpaper is a simpler version, smooth or structural.
What is the advantage of wallpaper for painting? They can be painted in a variety of colors, changing the interior of the nursery every year. Striking and timing. So, non-woven wallpaper will last up to 20 years, paper - up to 8, and glass cloth - up to 30 years.

The second type of trellis begins to “work” thanks to an ultraviolet lamp, which is mounted when the wallpaper is glued. Pigments of fluorescent wallpaper begin to radiate a glow under the influence of a lamp, giving the room an extraordinary look.
Speaking about the room, it is worth remembering its size. So, glowing wallpapers look best when viewed from a distance, so too small children should be covered with other kinds of tapestries.
