Not all babies sleep well without light. Terrible monsters seem to one in the dark, others just like to fall asleep in the soft light of a special lamp. Do not forget your mom about your own comfort, because it is much more convenient to approach the baby if he suddenly wakes up in a lighted room. How to choose a night lamp for a children's room?
We determine the place and choose the form
Before buying a nightlight, you should choose a place to place it. It is most convenient to hang a lamp near the crib or place a
table lamp on the bedside table nearby. This arrangement is also relevant for projectors designed for infants. It will be more convenient for the baby to consider the projected pictures.
The nightlight for a children's room can have a stand for placement on a flat surface or can be mounted directly on the wall, there are also decorative models. Such lamps have multi-colored illumination, some have sound effects. In a separate category are made nightlights that are inserted directly into the outlet. Very popular lamps made in the form of fairy-tale characters and animals. But no worse than classic nightlights that fit perfectly into the nursery, designed accordingly.
What additional features can a children's room night light have?
Some models are equipped with inclusion sensors. They can respond to sounds. In this case, the light comes on when the baby wakes up. Such lamps are ideal for newborns. Other nightlights light up after dark. They go out at dawn. The third option is lamps with a motion sensor, which are turned on when someone enters the room. A children's nightlight with music can have a timer that allows you to determine the time during which the music will play. When purchasing a projector, choose a model that has several brightness modes.
Features of lighting for children
Do not forget that the children's wall-mounted night light should be harmoniously integrated into the room lighting system. It should be combined with other lighting fixtures in style. It is advisable that the night light emits soft diffused light. But even if the selected lighting device hardly shines, it is not recommended to leave it on all night. Waking up at night, the child may be frightened by the glow, in addition, it will not allow to fully relax.
When buying a lamp, pay attention to the length of the cord and the type of plug. You may need to purchase an extension cord or adapter. The nightlight for a children's room should be safe and of high quality. If there are transparent elements, give preference to unbreakable glass and plastic. It should not contain the design and small parts that the child can independently remove or break off and swallow. Pay attention to how securely the light bulb is closed. Do not forget that it, too, may burst or crack when dropped.
