Children are busy little creatures who often respond well to a little structure when it comes to activities. So why not give your child a helping hand by creating functional spaces in their very own bedroom?

No one likes packing up Christmas for another year. Taking down decorations, hoovering up thousands of pine needles and attempting to cram reams of fairy lights back into their original boxes “Surely they didn’t come in those?”... After you’ve put away the hoover and settled down with a well-deserved cuppa, the house looks so bare you fear someone has stolen your furniture. However, rather than lament the end of the holiday season, think of it as the perfect opportunity to freshen up your home instead – not least your child’s bedroom.         Out with the old!

Making beds isn’t difficult. It’s just one more job that needs to be done - and the earlier each day, the better. However, the simplicity of bed making renders it the type of activity that can help promote independence in a child and as such, is often the first ‘chore’ they will learn. The smallest achievements can mean a lot to a child, especially when they come with heaps of praise and a huge sense of pride as a result! Many children savour such attention and will jump at the chance of impressing their parents with a neatly made bed, while others may flatly refuse to have a go. S..
