• Green (not too bright);
• Orange;
• Blue;
• Brown.

How to correctly use this advice in practice? Just hang a calendar, map, class schedule or other on the wall near your desk. necessary materials in the colors listed above. You can also put a colored organizer for stationery on the table, and boxes for papers on the shelves.

Tip 5: Create even lighting and choose the right table lamp

When arranging a student’s room, it is important to plan the lighting correctly. It should be uniform, not dull and not too bright. Ideally, the central chandelier should be complemented or completely along the entire perimeter of the ceiling.

If the renovation has already been done, then floor lamps and table lamps can complement the chandelier.

• Remember that reading and doing homework only in overhead lighting is harmful to a child’s vision. The desk must have a lamp with adjustable height and tilt, as well as a lampshade/shade. Light bulb in table lamp An LED with a white matte coating (so that the light does not blind the eyes) and a power of 60 W is desirable.

The light source should be on the left if the child is right-handed and on the right if the child is left-handed.

The same rule applies to daylight, so ideally the table should be placed not parallel to the window, but perpendicular.

Children up to about 10-12 years old still need games, so the design of the play area also needs to be given a lot of attention. Moreover, it is games that help children best assimilate knowledge. Here are some ideas for arranging a developing play space:

• Board/easel/wall for drawing and very useful role playing games into a teacher.

• A magnetic board on which the child can form words from magnetic letters. When the child grows up, the board can be used to display drawings, certificates, photographs, etc.

• Table for playing chess, assembling construction sets, modeling, drawing, assembling mosaics, and handicrafts.
• Mini theater with curtain and stage.

• Railway.
• Toy piano.

And so that the child can relax, warm up and give himself a “break”, it would be good, namely:

• Swedish wall;
• Home climbing wall;
• Basketball hoop;
• A gymnastic ball.

Globe, geographic map, interior numbers and letters, pictures from botanical or ethnographic atlases, model solar system, reproductions of great paintings - all this will be useful for the child’s education and, at the same time, will decorate the interior. True, you shouldn’t go overboard with educational decor either, because a student’s room is not only an office, but also a bedroom.

Below is a selection of photo examples of how you can decorate a schoolchild’s/schoolgirl’s room.

You should not put certificates, medals and cups in a box; it is better to collect them in one place and arrange them beautifully. It is better to frame especially important diplomas, diplomas and certificates.

Here are tips to help you organize the storage of things in your student’s room and teach your child to maintain order:

• Distribute notebooks, textbooks, stationery, reference books, etc. according to the principle “the more necessary, the closer.” Thus, notebooks and textbooks should be in the top drawer of the nightstand or on the nearest shelf. If the child is right-handed, then the working cabinet/bedside table should be placed on the right; if the child is left-handed, then on the left.
• Most comfortable for a child wardrobe– narrow (about 40 cm deep), with a bar installed at eye level, drawers that close smoothly and cannot be pulled out completely. It's great if the wardrobe has lighting.

• The wardrobe can be replaced with a chest of drawers (it is more convenient for a child) and supplemented with a cute hanger for clothes that cannot be wrinkled, including school uniforms.
• When setting up a play area, get rid of toys that the child has already outgrown, and organize a storage system for the remaining things: divide them into categories and store them in labeled containers/baskets.
• Teach your child to put things in their place, not to accumulate rubbish, and also to put things not in piles, but... folded into rectangles or at least rolls and arranged vertically. Take a look at our article about and learn other useful tricks.
• In a small student room you need to use non-standard places storage and multifunctional furniture. So, for example, you should choose a bed with drawers or with a headboard with shelves. Instead of a bedside table, you can hang a pocket for a book and a bottle of water on the side of the bed. A couple of shelves will also come in handy (they can be hung above the bed, desk, above the door and even above the window).

Parents should be happy that if a child asks you these questions, it means he is developing normally.

Place a couple of shelves or drawers, and in them store things that might be interesting for the baby: a magnifying glass, binoculars, magnets, a calculator, a broken home phone - whatever. Add new things periodically, explaining what they are for and how they work (not forgetting to remove the ones that are already used and in which the child has lost interest).

If the child is between 2 and 6 years old, then try to organize more free space. At this age, children prefer not only to play on the floor, but also to simply run, slide down a slide, or build tents, houses, and wigwams.

Be sure to consider the child’s gender and interests, at this age he already has his own idea of ​​​​beauty and is more interested in something.

Of course, if your baby really loves pink, blue, purple or red, you can decorate part of the interior area or buy bed linen and curtains in this color, but the entire room It’s not worth creating in bright colors. Because the wrong color can cause fatigue and irritation, as well as pressure on the psyche.

If the room itself or your nerves do not allow you to highlight an entire wall, then at least a door turn it into a drawing board.

Display children's art and crafts in a prominent place so that the child realizes that his creations are valued.

To a boy athlete organize a mini-gym or decorate your room with a sports theme.

What if he dreams of becoming a sailor? design like a ship's deck, where there will be ropes to improve agility, a bridge with a steering wheel, Lifebuoy with binoculars and even an observation tower. He will definitely be happy with such a room.

In children - teenagers be sure to ask so that they want to see in their room not only for study, but also for entertainment. Involve children in choosing and purchasing wallpaper, furniture, and all the interior elements of their room. This move will save you from further disputes and claims. Also allow children to hang posters of their favorite bands or athletes on the walls or furniture.
