Bean chairs and bean bags are perfect for childrens areas – anywhere in the house, doesn’t just have to be their bedroom(s) – where kids hang out regularly. They take out the element of danger present anywhere you have solid furnishing and (because they are tactile, bright and malleable) introduce a welcome sense of playfulness to the surroundings. Childrens bean bags are involving and interesting – and bean chairs are obviously a much safer object to have around little folk than a potentially skull-cracking wooden seat. Doing up a playroom with bean chairs and childrens bean bags gives your kids a stimulating, creative space that ticks the box when it comes to parental protectiveness.
Imagine a playroom whose floor is soft and colourful. That’s what your children will feel like if you include some childrens bean bags in their favourite place: and if you have bean chairs as well you’ll enhance the feeling that this is their special room. Adult stuff is hard – floor your childrens room with bean bags, furnish it with bean chairs and you’ll have created an environment that is quite the opposite. Nothing says “no adults allowed” like a place where everything is a different size, colour and texture to the less forgiving world of grown-ups. So, next time you refurb, think about decking the playroom with bean chairs and childrens bean bags. They’ll love you for it. And when they’ve gone off to beddy-bye there’s no rule that says you can’t sneak in there yourself and have a little bounce around!
