Baby Rooms-Dressers and Armoires

When deciding on a dresser style, feel not only about how considerably space you have but also about what you will put in it and how a child will use it. It will be employed much longer than the crib, so pick with an eye to the future. You may even want to buy this piece at an “adult” furniture store. You can also get an inexpensive dresser at an unfinished furniture store, then paint or stain it to match your crib or other furniture you could already have chosen. Invest a little extra on distinctive knobs, and you will have a custom piece for a fraction of the price.

A low, double-wide bureau is a wise option, as all the drawers are simple-access by age 3 (with the aid of a little step stool), when most kids begin wanting to dress themselves. A highboy makes sense only if you are short on floor space and want to store things out of your child’s reach make sure any tall dresser is securely anchored to the wall.

Think about how the dresser will function in the future.Some models are part of a package that allows you to add a hutch on top or shelf angle (also called "set radius") on each side. Storage means your child will grow, then the strategy accordingly.

Cabinets are an increasingly common option in the years baby, the best cabinet is equipped with a pole to hang dresses or jackets modest, while the lower drawers to store the remains of clothing and blankets. Some parents begin with shelves in the head, leave the doors open, and use it as a display area for the treasures of the baby. Later, the cupboard can store collections, books, or even a tv.

Safety considerations contain the obvious—is it sturdy and totally free of sharp edges?—and the not so obvious—are the drawer knobs or handles effortless for small hands to get a grip on? Gliders or center guides will make drawers slide in and out far more smoothly, creating it simpler for preschoolers to dress themselves and put away their clothes. Drawers that are heavy and fast to shut, nevertheless, are a recipe for pinched fingers. If your toddler is a climber, put safety locks on the drawers, or they may possibly be employed as steps (one more reason to anchor the dresser to the wall). Finally, make sure that the drawers cannot be removed altogether, or a toddler could end up pulling 1 out on best of him.

Other items you may want to save space for in your child’s room: a modest table and chair set (it will be appreciated by 18 months of age), a miniature armchair for “reading” (even one-year olds really like to imitate Mom and Dad), and a nightstand for next to the rocking chair (till the “big bed” comes along).
