How To Make A Perfect Summer Space For Kids

The best colours and patterns for children’s rooms 

Once you’ve found the best type of fabric to keep your little one comfy this summer, you can then start the real enjoyment and find the ideal pattern for the space.

This is where you can make the task a fun little project to enjoy with your child. By working with your little one on which patterns they’d most like to enjoy in their space, they will form a strong connection with it, feeling as comfortable and content as possible. 

Popular children’s patterns include stars and rockets, animals and sporty designs. With a wide array of options available. The colour choices are also important when making a perfect summer space for a child. Energising, positive shades are a core component of making a child’s space meet its full potential. You can learn all about the best positive colours in our Psychology Of Colour: Positive Colours blog.

A comfortable space for children

One of the first things we associate with the summer is the heat. While a warm outdoors is often a thing to revel in, an indoor space that’s too hot can make life a little uncomfortable.

As a result, before we take a look at specific uses for children’s spaces, we need to make sure that they are comfortable to be in. 

Where open windows might not be safe, and air conditioning not available, there is still an easy and affordable way to keep the heat out this summer. With a quality thermal blind or curtain, you can block out the sun’s heat and keep the room nice and cool.

At Blinds Direct we have a wide array of specialist thermal blinds including roller blinds, and both pleated and honeycomb blinds. 

You can also add a free thermal lining to any curtain or Roman blind allowing you enjoy the benefits of a thermal window furnishing without any compromise on style. You can learn more about our linings – including blackout linings – for Roman blinds and curtains in our buyers’ guide. 

Make a kid’s reading corner

While most kids aren’t currently thinking about school, keeping up with their reading is a great use for a special space for your child. 

While the thermal blind or curtain keeps them cool, and the fun patterns are spurring on their imagination, you can next start looking at the accessories to make the space as comfortable as can be! 

It should come as no surprise that plenty of soft, high-quality cushions are one of the easiest ways to maximise the space’s potential. There is a fabulous selection of kids cushions available on the website including many of the same designs we’ve looked at for the window furnishings. 

By arranging your kid’s cushions in a fun, relaxing way, you’ll have made the first step towards your little one’s dream reading corner. At Blinds Direct, our range of quality cushions is made to the highest standards from only the finest materials to ensure whoever uses them feels comfortable and content. To make the reading space appealing to your child, consider colours and patterns they will love. 

Creating an indoor summer space for kids doesn’t have to be complicated or expensive. With a little creativity and planning, you can provide a variety of fun and educational activities that will keep your children entertained and engaged all summer long. So, get started today and transform your home into a summer paradise for your little ones!
