How to create a playroom in a small apartment

Just because you live in a small apartment does not mean that you can not use every square meter when it comes to children and the space arranged for them to feel great every day.

Kids are great, but they come with so much luggage - literally! Especially if you live in a small house or apartment, storing things and creating a special play space are aspects that can create challenges for parents.

In this material you will find some easy ways that we hope will inspire you to create fun and practical spaces for your children.

1. Use furniture to create an artificial room border

Set aside a corner of the living room to be your child's special space. Use furniture suitable for the little ones to create a visual border of the "room", such as a low bookcase or a mobile desk with lots of drawers, ideal for storage.



The idea is to use the space you have as efficiently as possible. Instantly, you have a smaller "room" where all things can be stored. Use your imagination as much as possible and adapt: ​​a library should not be used only for books. Use the space on the shelves for toys or other objects.

2. Children's floors

In a small apartment, it is probably not realistic to have floors separated from the rest of the room. However, you can use brightly colored rugs to make the play area look cheerful and bright. Look for colorful striped rugs, alphabet squares or even cartoon characters. If the playroom is large enough, you can use rugs to delimit separate areas, such as a book corner and a play area.



3. Comfortable chairs used as storage space

The colorful Bean Bag duvets are fun and comfortable, so they are preferred in the playroom. However, look for smart chairs that double as storage, such as a traditional toy chest. It can also be used as a bank. Avoid putting adult chairs in the playground, as they take up too much space and are useless for children. In fact, places in the playroom should not be allowed, so that children have more freedom in terms of space and do not hit trying to push or lift them.



4. Make the most of the room walls in your home

Use sturdy wall shelves to make a feature of your child's most attractive belongings, such as a globe or an antique doll. His favorites should be exposed to the public to find them quickly. Help him discover the world for himself. Let the child choose a theme for the playroom and decorate the walls with stickers, such as with fairies or dinosaurs. The stickers are cheap and can be easily peeled off without leaving any damage to the walls.



5. Teach him to keep order in his small apartment.

Tell him that the playground is his own apartment, for which he is 100% responsible. The purpose of having a designated play corner is to keep your child's things in one area and under control. If your child finds it difficult to keep things tidy, help him with plenty of storage containers around. This configuration naturally helps them develop organizational skills. Encourage him to put things in order after each play session or at least at the end of each day.
