What could be better than settling into a beautifully made bed, nestling in for the night between super soft sheets? As adults, we love such luxuries especially as they help us get the restful sleep we need.
With this in mind, perhaps we should be thinking along the same lines when it comes to what we put on our children’s beds too. We don’t mean silk sheets and gilded four posters, just simple, good quality children’s bedding. Afterall, a good night’s sleep is the ultimate aim and every little helps.
From single and double duvet sets to luxurious mattresses and quilts, there are plenty..
After attempting to complete that never ending to-do list, most parents could happily fall asleep on a washing line each evening given half the chance.
If only our children felt the same way and simply couldn’t wait for their heads to hit the pillow. Oh how simple life would be!
Unfortunately, such a scenario is akin to hens teeth so we are faced with the bedtime routine instead...
Your child may moan about this part of their day but they would no doubt be lost without it, so try your best to persevere. Routine may seem boring and restrictive but in actual fact it’s your child’s anch..
We know that children’s furniture should last for more than just one season. In fact, it should last for many years if you choose your collection wisely. The trick is to find something that will stay looking fresh and ‘spring like’ whatever the weather outside!
So if you are thinking of giving your child’s bedroom a makeover this season, here are some ideas to help you create something that will last long into summer, autumn, winter and many more springs to come…

A little magic in a child’s bedroom goes a long, long way. From firing the imagination to inducing a long and restful slumber, it’s important to create a girl’s or boy’s bedroom that speaks directly to them.
Whatever your little one loves about life be it the colour green, fairy wings or rocket ships perhaps, try and include a design element that is close to their heart. Colours are easy to incorporate into a room in the form of soft furnishings and décor. Pairing white with bold favourite shades or mixing pastels always works well.
When it comes to more personal touches however, there a..

What could be more enticing than a beautifully made bed with squishy plumped up pillows at the end of a tiring day? Nothing springs to mind.
The thought of your child climbing into a crumpled, unmade crib doesn’t really appeal and can mean a restless start to their slumber which won’t benefit anyone, least of all you!
Granted, the world wouldn’t stop turning if we didn’t make our childrens’ beds each morning, but it would certainly seem a lot less organised.
Experts tell us that a made bed means less mess in a child’s mind as well as in their bedroom. In view of this, perhaps it’s ti..
A child’s bedroom is usually a messy bedroom. Scattered toys on the floor, clothes strewn anywhere but in the wardrobe and an assortment of random shoes dumped here, there and everywhere – none of which make a pair.
To see the bedroom you so lovingly put together turn into a jumbled heap on a daily basis, can be very annoying! You’ve gone from tidying up each day, to simply closing the door instead. Out of sight out of mind.
There is another way to deal with your child’s penchant for mess however. Having children’s furniture which contains storage that is easily accessible could make all..
Children are the biggest hoarders of all. Their piles of toys, books and bears grows along with them for those first few years at least. Most of this paraphernalia may lie untouched for months but woe betide the brave warrior who tries to remove any it! Cue plenty of tears.

So if you can’t sneak out the surplus under the cover of darkness what’s the solution?
Maximise your storage of course!

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.

Sleep is our saviour. It’s the silent tonic, our rest and repair. As adults we are slaves to a good night’s sleep and those of us who aren’t lucky enough to always enjoy such a luxury will stop at nothing until we do!
So if we are so obsessed with the idea of uninterrupted slumber, knowing exactly how the lack of sleep affects our mood, energy levels and performance, spare a thought for our growing children. They have developing minds and bodies to cope with not to mention school work, extracurricular activities and any other ‘life pressures’ that little ones so often feel but can’t articul..
With so many ideas available for girls’ bedroom design on television, in magazines and on social networking sites, you may find yourself overwhelmed with possibilities.
But if you think of your daughter’s room as a blank canvas upon which their growing personality can be expressed through colour, fabric and style, it may help to narrow your options a little.
Involving your child in the decision-making process can mean the project takes a little longer than intended but at least there will be no complaints upon the ‘big reveal’!
We have put together a few ideas to get your designer..
Nowhere in the home is great storage more essential than in a child’s bedroom.
Between the countless cuddly toys and train tracks, there are Barbie’s miniscule earrings and stray Lego blocks to contend with. Just don’t venture into the vortex with bare feet…Ouch!

Hearing nothing but the soft breathing of your child in the evening is perhaps one of the most rewarding times of the day when you are a parent.
After all, the rigmarole that surrounds a bedroom routine can be an extremely stress-inducing task.
First of all, it is important to remember that almost all children go through a phase of playing up at bed time – you aren’t alone!
Whether too full of energy, scared of being alone or simply looking for your attention, children can often misbehave in the build up to their bedtime.
However, with a little patience and practice, you ..
