TIPS WHEN CHOOSING BEDDING FOR YOUR CHILD

CHOOSING THE BEST BEDDING

The most effective strategy is to choose kids bedding that looks good, feels good and fits in the budget.

Of all the accessories that give character to a kid's room, bedding may be the most important of all. Bedding sets can make or break a bedroom, and standout. Bedding sets can make even ordinary beds and cribs look dazzling. Designs for princesses and ballerinas mean girls' bedding sets can perfectly mirror your daughter's personality. Pile on the charm with pillows, there's nothing cozier or more inviting. Baby boy bedding goes way beyond basic blue in surprising colors and boyish designs that celebrate animals, cowboys and sports. Anchor any design with matching window treatments or create your own decor with fabric by the yard. Unlimited options for cradle, bassinet and crib bedding can turn your nursery into a show-stopper. Don't forget the mattress, what's covered up is as important as what shows.

There are a number of factors to consider when choosing kids bedding. Fabric, style, care instructions and comfort are all important. Ultimately, the best bedding option is the one that is right for the child, taking into consideration age and personal taste, as well as any allergies or sensitivities the child may have.

When choosing kids bedding, however, parents may wish to consider functionality over style.

For many people, the design of bedding, particularly comforters and bedspreads, is the most important element. This holds true of kids bedding as well as adults’ bedding. The child might have a favorite color or animal that can be included in the bedding style. She/he may wish to choose bedding options that feature a favorite movie or cartoon character. The extensive variety of styles available provides many choices.

Safety is also a concern. Kids bedding should be flame-resistant whenever possible. Highly flammable fabrics should be avoided. Bedding for young children should not contain embellishments that could pose a choking hazard.

Highly embellished bedding may also be irritating or uncomfortable. Parents should remember that the primary purpose of kids bedding is to provide the child a clean, comfortable place to sleep at night. Scratchy blankets or sheets that do not breathe well will lead to a less restful night for the child.

Further considerations are the size and style of the bed. Some custom-shaped beds may require special comforters. Right-sized sheets are also important to comfort. Sheets that are too large may bunch, while sheets that are too small may slip off of corners.

Price is also an important factor. Obviously the more quality the print the steeper the price, and also depending on where you buy it from will also determine how far you reach into those pockets. Make sure it is 100% cotton. If you simply want something that just does the job then go for a more simple print and plain duvet covers, otherwise if you’re feeling thrifty then go for the one that works, you only live once.
