Hack #5: Use LED bulbs
Halogens, incandescent and fluorescent bulbs tend to heat up and, as mentioned before, if a child touches it, they will get burned. Also, they consume loads of energy and they have a short lifespan. So, instead of those, your best option is LEDs. Although they still produce very minimal heat, they will not cause any burns. In addition, LED bulbs do not contain any harmful chemicals, they’re energy-efficient and will last for a long time.
Hack #6: Get creative with your fixtures
Although practical lighting is a must in your child’s room, it is not a bad idea to get creative with it! Instead of adding standard downlights or light bulbs to the ceiling, why don’t you look for a unique fixture that will capture your child’s interest? There are a lot of child-appropriate designs you can find that will make the room more fun and exciting!
Hack #7: Add a night lamp
Children can get easily scared if they’re left in a dark room. So, to appease them from their fear, add a unique and creative night light to keep them company at night. Infants may not be aware of the dark, but they might feel terrified if sudden noises jolt them out of sleep. Also, toddlers who watch a lot of TVs might have come across the boogie monster. So, they’ll feel safer if they have a subtle brightness to watch guard.
