Ensure natural materials and rounded corners for child-friendly furnishings

1. rounded corners for maximum safety
Children love to run around and play, and it's easy for them to bump into furniture. For this reason, furniture with rounded corners is an excellent choice for a child-friendly home. Sharp edges can lead to unpleasant injuries, while rounded corners significantly reduce the risk.

2. natural materials and non-toxic surfaces
The health of our children is of paramount importance and therefore furniture should be made from natural materials. Natural solid wood is not only environmentally friendly, but also free from harmful chemicals that can be found in many lacquered or coated furniture. These can evaporate over time. By using natural oils instead of lacquers or coatings, the natural properties of the wood are retained and ensure healthy indoor air. This benefits not only children, but also adults.

3. always secure high cupboards and shelves
Especially when there are children in the house, it is extremely important to securely attach the wall fixings supplied with furniture. Anyone who neglects to do this is acting with gross negligence and risks cabinets and shelves toppling over, for example if a child tries to climb up them.

4. robust solid wood is durable and repairable
Children can sometimes be boisterous, and furniture needs to be able to withstand this energy. Robust solid wood is the ideal choice as it is not only durable but also easy to repair. Scratches or dents can simply be sanded out and the furniture looks like new again. This repair option not only extends the life of the furniture, but also reduces the need for new products, which in turn is good for the environment.

5. expandable and changeable furniture for changing needs
Children grow quickly and their needs change over time. It is therefore practical to choose furniture that can grow with them. Expandable and convertible furniture offers the flexibility to adapt to the child's changing needs and tastes.

When choosing suitable furniture, it is important to pay attention to materials, safety and an intelligent concept. It's worth investing a few extra euros to get furniture that will last a long time and be fun at any age. And the best thing is that natural, robust and durable furniture is usually also sustainable, which means we are doing our children a very special favor for the future.
