From Page 3 all, this is where your child will be spending a lot of their time once they start to crawl. In the early years, the floor area should be left uncluttered and it should be reasonably warm, easy to clean, non-slip and not too hard. The most versatile floor- ing is one that combines soft .and hard areas. This is easi- ly achieved by placing soft carpets over an existing hard floor. This mixture allows for a variety of ac- tivities such as sitting, reading and playing and makes maintenance and clean-up easier. Windows can be treated in many ways. The main consideration is that they should be safe and provide enough daylight and fresh air. Long curtains are not a good idea because they can be easily tugged and pulled down. Blinds .of one type or another are probably the best choice. They're safe, easy to clean, and control Decorating the babys room light better than curtains. They also come in a wide range of patterns and col- ours and can be easily dressed up with a valance. But do keep the cords well out of reach of toddlers and crawlers. Finally, we can't forget the ceiling. This is the world the baby sees for much of the first year. You can paint it with clouds, birds and butterflies, or even stars. You can also add another dimension by hanging things from the ceiling - mobiles, kites, paper lamps, balloons. Or, you can leave the walls plain and wallpaper the ceiling instead. When making your decorating plans, just remember the best invest- ment is one that can grow and change with your child at very little extra expense to you.
