Properly selected and positioned lighting devices will not harm the growing body and will help you enjoy the game and activities in your favorite children's room.
When choosing a chandelier for a children's room, it is necessary to take into account the characteristics of the room, the gender and age of the child, as well as the style of interior decoration

The chandelier in the nursery is chosen very carefully, based on the recommendations of interior designers, and sometimes pediatricians. Based on the fact that the child spends a lot of time daily in his room, there are certain criteria for choosing lighting devices for a given room.
The chandelier should not only illuminate the room well and fit into the general environment, but also be safe for the child
The most light and spacious room is always given for the placement of a children's room in an apartment or a house, because it is so important that in the morning the rays of the sun wake the baby up and fill it all daylight hours. And in the evening, all the load is borne by chandeliers, lamps, lamps and night lights. In each children's room, the issue of lighting is always decided independently, depending on the style, shape and color of furniture, walls and ceilings, the location of windows, and also the age of the child.
For the children in the classic style, a sophisticated model with pendants and neat shades is suitable
You need to carefully approach the question of the brightness of the light emitted by the lamps: you cannot allow the appearance of twilight or dark angles, but at the same time the light should not be too bright, creating glare on objects. Everything should be in moderation: the transitions from light to shadow are not sharp, but smooth, so that the light is distributed evenly. The stream of light should be directed upwards and be diffused.
A chandelier with several bulbs allows you to adjust the level of lighting in the room
Division into zones - it is obligatory to use several light sources. Divide the lighting into general and additional. As a common light source, a children's ceiling chandelier or children's ceiling lamps are used. Each zone in the children's room must be illuminated additionally: work, play and sleeping areas.
To separate the children's room into zones, various lamps are used - pendant, table, spot or wall
To illuminate the child’s desktop in the evening, put a table lamp. With today's variety of models offered, try to choose models with a wide lampshade that will cover it and bright light will not blind the child. For mobile children who can easily drop a table lamp, it is recommended to choose wall lights. Do not ignore the choice of bulbs for devices in the working area - their power should not exceed 60 watts, with more power, glare may form on white notebook sheets.
A table lamp is placed to the left of the workplace or to the right if your child is left-handed
The bedside in the children's room should also be lit if necessary. Preschoolers are better off using a dim night light with a soft, dim light, and children of primary school and adolescence will use a wall lamp in the children's room or a bedside lamp for reading before bedtime.
You can put table lamps on the bedside tables near the beds
Do not disregard the game area. Here you can move away from the one-color design and use original and interesting lamps with your favorite characters from fairy tales and cartoons, colorful compositions on the theme of your child’s favorite hobbies: space, sports, airplanes, butterflies, balls, etc.

If you opted for a central chandelier, abandon massive, large models. They are unsafe during games and can “make heavier” space.
Kids constantly frolic, jump, run and play active games, so the safety issue of all lighting devices in the children's room must be resorted to at the design and repair stages. It is advisable to use indoor shades, minimizing the chance of injury from shrapnel bulbs in active games.
Safety is the main criterion for choosing lighting for a child’s room
Choose the power of light bulbs according to the age of the child, the older he is - the brighter the light, but do not overdo it. A prerequisite is that all light sources are out of reach for very young children, as their curiosity can lead to disastrous consequences.
When choosing a lamp, they are primarily focused on the age of the child
And most importantly, open sockets in the children's room, and preferably in the entire apartment, must be closed with special covers that the child is not able to open. Wires should also not be in the zone of free access - hide them in special boxes.
The chandelier can act as a bright color accent in the interior of a children's room
It is very important not to use inexpensive plastic products. When heated, the plastic and its bright colors can melt and produce an unpleasant odor and harmful chemical elements. The materials from which the fixtures are made are better to use natural ones, such as wood, metal, glass or cloth.

A chandelier in the nursery today is not an easy choice. A huge variety of models, shapes, colors and additional decorative decorations can put any parent in a difficult position.

For girls, models are more tender, for example, in the form of beautiful flowers or butterflies hanging from the ceiling of funny animals, cartoon characters, dolls, magnificent skirts, ribbons, etc. Do not forget about the age of the child. For children under the age of 5 years, the models described above are still suitable, but for older kids it is better to opt for classic plafond-balls of white or bright colors.
For a little girl, a round chandelier with white flowers is suitable
Another important factor is the color of the lamp, the choice of which, first of all, takes into account the interior design of the children's room. The lamp should not stand out in the room, but rather complement the overall interior. For example, when a room is made in pastel colors, the lamp can be white or several tones darker than the room itself, and can be made in contrasting colors that will make the room bright.

The design of the chandelier should fit the interior of the children's room
