For a child, moving into a room separate from their parents’ room, or settling into a new room of their own after moving house, can sometimes be a challenge. By choosing the right lighting solutions, you can make your childs move easier and increase their sense of security.
Lighting the new children’s room
If your child is sceptical about their new room, it could be because they are scared of the dark. Fortunately, modern lighting can help to alleviate this tension. Dimmable lights in the right places and wireless light control buttons can give your child more confidence, and all family members get the sleep they need in their own rooms.
A traditional night light may not be the right solution if it needs to be placed far away because of its brightness. The need for light at night varies depending on the child. If the night light is not easily reached by the child, waking up may cause fear and the child will come to the parents instead of independently e.g. going to the toilet by them self or setteling back to sleep.
A dimmable LED lamps provide just the right amount of light by dimming, so that even at night the brightness is adequate but not too bright. The lights can be left on all night, when they are set to a low light level. Suitable lamps are e.g. led panels, led strips or led spots.
Safety and ease of use in children’s room lighting
The light switch should be located in an easily accessible place, so a wireless light switch is a good option. The same light can be controlled from more than one switch, so in addition to the traditional switch on the side of the door, a second switch can be installed at a childs level or near the bed.
In addition to ease of use, product safety is essential for light controllers. LedStore dimmable buttons are safe, CE and RoHS marked. They can be attached with e.g. with the sturdy 3M sticker included in the package or by screws (also included). The button is battery operated. We do not recommend installing the button within the reach of children under 3 years of age, as the battery compartment lid is a detachable part. We provide a three-year warranty against manufacturing defects.
The right amount of light helps your child feel safe and secure, and keeps the sleep situation calm.
Playful additional lighting options for the children’s room
Led strip lights do not get hot when properly mounted on an aluminium profile. This allows light to be installed in places where a traditional halogen light could not be installed. If there is a particular spot in the room that needs lighting: a dark corner, the backdrop of curtains, or a large cupboard, you can also use LED lights in those spots. The scary place is transformed into a cosy and comfortable one, and your child can happily get a good night’s sleep.
Add some playfulness to the kids’ room with the RGB+W strip, which has a remote control with a colour-changing wheel. In addition to the usual soft colour changing programme, you can choose from 4000K neutral white or with RGB+CCT strips – white light color from warm to cold. You can control our lights with Zigbee or RF (wireless) or DALI systems, depending on your needs
