Creativity within concrete homes
Home hardly figures in the childhood scheme of things. The wild and experimenting nature of children makes them prefer larger expanses of freedom to cosy confines of domesticity. Slopes, orchards, play grounds and flowing waters, all with their undefined and anarchic patterns ignite a child’s imagination while any kind of discipline is loathed vehemently. In a nutshell, a child’s world brooks no boundaries.
However, with the disappearance of open spaces and anarchy visible only in traffic jams, the urban child has hardly any sense of free spirit. Space can now be understood only in terms of shopping malls, fun means video games and learning is all that is there to know about computers. No wonder then, that for today’s child, being home is like being in heaven. Hence, it is every parent’s duty to make home as child-friendly as possible. Even for tiny tots, the room should not be filled with glaring colours, which might be tiring to the eye. The hues should be bright, at the same time, pleasant. Delicate contrast should be maintained between wall colours.
Having comics or pictures painted on the wall is a good option.Creativity can go as far as money can travel in terms of furnishing a child’s room. Cots, for example, are available in plenty of colours and designs. Bunk beds with or without accompanying cabinets and desks are available at Home Town from a price of Rs.19,900 upwards to Rs.50,000. Separate cots with built-in storage/ extra bed will occupy lesser space at the same time, entertain any privileged guest of the child/children. The current favourite, however, is the one modelled after a sports car which comes in a package along with a wardrobe and bedside table at Rs.32,700.
