The child spends a lot of time in the nursery. Therefore, it should be spacious, cozy and absolutely safe for the baby.
The most important thing in a room is the furniture. It should be beautiful, comfortable and practical. And also strong and environmentally friendly.
And all these qualities are contained in furniture made of wood. Let's consider all the pros, and possibly cons, of wooden models.
Materials
Looking at the photo of children's furniture made of wood, everything seems so strong and durable. In principle, this is how it is. The only difference is what exactly the furniture for children is made of. Made from solid wood or chipboard and MDF. But everything is in order.
What criteria should you use to choose a bed?
When choosing a product, you should take into account the age, gender, and height of the child. If two children live in a room, then it is important to give preference to a two-level bed with a ladder. It will be easier for a child on the top floor to leave the confines of his “house” by going downstairs. The attic should be equipped with sides for additional safety. A bed for a boy can be decorated in blue or green, for a girl - in purple or pink.

Natural wood
The best furniture is furniture made from natural materials. Yes, it is very expensive, but if possible, then this is the best option for a children's room. Ecological and absolutely safe for children.
Wood continues to release beneficial substances even after complete processing. They help strengthen children's immunity and fight pathogenic bacteria and microbes.
Natural wood furniture for a children's room is made mainly from pine, birch, oak and beech.
Functional wooden cabinet for a children's room
Wooden children's furniture ─ wardrobes, beds, cabinets, tables, chairs, chests of drawers ─ the best choice for every child. Environmental friendliness, durability, reliability, aesthetic appeal ─ these are the main advantages of such furnishings. The online store Drev Mebel offers to buy children's wooden cabinets from trusted manufacturers. The quality of the furniture is confirmed by relevant certificates. Children's wardrobes made of solid oak, beech, birch, pine, ash and mahogany are available for sale. The furniture has a manufacturer's warranty.
Birch
Birch furniture has a light shade. The fibrous structure of the material absorbs paint well, so “birch” furniture can come in the most unexpected shades and colors.
These are reliable, beautiful products that have bactericidal and hypoallergenic properties. Birch is much more resistant to external damage than pine.
However, the array is very susceptible to sudden changes in temperature and high air humidity.
Oak
Leader among other breeds. Solid oak furniture is strong, durable and reliable. Oak does not rot and is resistant to external damage (scratches, impacts).
It has a beautiful pattern on the cut and can have a yellow or light brown tint.

Types of cabinets
When choosing a wardrobe for your child, you should take into account his taste preferences, and also pay attention to the factory (be it IKEA or any other) that manufactures the products. For boys, it is better to choose a wardrobe or a ready-made modular system in a nautical style, for girls - in a princess style. You can choose a standard size or purchase custom-made furniture according to individual parameters.

Built-in wardrobes are considered very convenient to use, since they do not take up extra space in the room and have a convenient door opening system. The cabinet cabinet is also quite spacious, provides for the presence of all structural elements, and can be supplemented with hinged doors.

Beech
The qualities of beech wood are very similar to oak. It is also strong, durable and reliable. Can be easily restored with minor damage.
Beech exudes positive energy and increases the body's resistance to stress.
MDF products
Furniture made from this material is durable and can last more than ten years. Non-carcinogenic and does not emit harmful resins. MDF models undergo careful processing to give them an aesthetic appearance.
However, you should handle the surface of the products carefully. As a result of outdoor games, scratches and dents may appear on the furniture, which can affect its service life.
The cost of children's furniture made from MDF is only slightly inferior to models made from solid wood.
Functionality
Manufacturers of wooden furniture for children's rooms are divided into two categories:
Corpus. Considered durable and versatile. The constant basis of this category is a table, a wardrobe and a chest of drawers. The bed can be selected according to the age of the child. Flowers, various accessories and lighting will help decorate the interior.
Modular. There is no base, so you can assemble it according to your desire and taste. The advantage of this category is the individuality of the room’s interior.
Table, chairs, beds, cabinets - all this is selected separately and put together like a construction set into one whole.
According to their intended purpose, furniture for a children's room made of wood is divided into groups:
- rest and sleep (beds, sofas);
- food (table and chair);
- activities (desk, table, chair);
- storage of things (wardrobe, chest of drawers, shelves);
- leisure (wall bars, horizontal bar).
Choosing the right chest of drawers
For the little ones, it is important to choose a changing chest, equipped with a compartment for changing clothes and swaddling the baby. The number of drawers in this design varies. It will be possible to equip the room of schoolchildren with both a low and a high chest of drawers.
A chest of drawers is another place where a child can store his things.

Making a choice
Furniture in a nursery should be comfortable, practical and safe. There should be no sharp corners, toxic materials or fragile products in the room.
Wooden furniture gives the children's room coziness and comfort. Light damage caused during the game can be easily restored, and the furniture continues to serve for many years.
