Naughty kids equates to sturdy furniture.
If you have children who consider your house as a huge playground, you will always think about their safety and protection.
Not only that, you have to ensure that your furniture are of the highest quality, lest you end up investing on new ones every time a child breaks a chair, smashes a glass table, or accidentally puts a whole on your sofas.
An often forgotten, but equally important, consideration in keeping children safe and away from harm are your home's window treatments.
Kids love to play with blinds slats and often end up bending them in different directions.
To dissuade kids from doing so, find spring-tempered aluminum models that resist twisting better than other models.
You may opt to have these blinds custom-made and use eight-gauge aluminum for more durability.
Look for mini blinds that offer crash-proof cord locks, a snap-in design feature that automatically locks the blind as soon as the cord is released.
These are ideal for your kids' rooms.
If your kids see a crack on your wooden blinds, for sure, the more they will tug at the exposed material and further do damage on the blinds.
Another window blinds option that you have are the ones made from manufactured wood.
They have the look of real wood but can be bought at a price that is about 20% less than the real ones.
These blinds resist abuse and are great sun protectors.
They help you control light and keep your rooms well insulated.
Since these window blinds are made from synthetic materials, maintaining and care for the window blinds is easy.
Unlike real wood that warps and cracks, these synthetic blinds are not predisposed to splitting due to high humidity.
Because of this, they are best used in areas your kids stay in most often, such as bathrooms, play areas, and their bedrooms.
