Children's room lighting should be planned with multiple light points, preferably installed on separate circuits. With this solution, the device can have a variety of applications necessary in a room that serves as a bedroom, playroom, and also as a place for studying or having some rest. What do you need to bear in mind to make sure the lighting is safe and suitable for the little ones?
Adjustable lighting direction.
With a new member of the family on the way, new parents tend to overlook the aspect of proper lighting for the baby's room. Quite unfortunate, really. Just think how much time a baby spends lying down, so protecting its eyesight is crucial here. On the other hand, the lighting has to cover all baby care routines, so both the incidence of light and its brightness must be adapted to them. For the above reasons, pendant lamps with strong light sources are not be a good choice. If we want to avoid the glare effect, which can cause irritation and frequent crying of the toddler, or even damage their eyes, it's a good idea to go for the wall-mounted luminaires with adjustable lighting direction. The best luminaires are those that allow you to change the direction of light. Kanlux GALOBA W is a good example of that. It is a new series of fittings with adjustable vertical and horizontal light direction. It consists of pendant lamps, wall lights and wall and ceiling fixtures.
Remote dimming - convenience and cost efficiency
GALOBA W wall lights have an on/off switch in the base, which makes it much easier to operate and use them during baby care routines, also it's safe for preschoolers and older children. With their streamlined design, they fit into any interior, and with their nook-free casing, it's really easy to keep them clean. These are not, however, their most important advantages. If you choose to install Kanlux SMART sources in them, you will be able to control the lighting remotely. This is very important when it's time for your child to go to bed. Using the app, you can then reduce the light intensity or switch it to night mode, reducing energy consumption and letting your little one to fall asleep in soft light. Most parents can confirm that this is the situation most often chosen by their offspring. Moreover, the light can be dimmed or switched on slowly and discreetly by remote control. For anyone who, when entering a dark room, has stepped on scattered blocks or toys, the ability to quickly, silently and gently illuminate the room before entering will be invaluable.
Light-diffusing and impact-resistant lampshades
As a child, have you ever stared straight into a light bulb or, even worse, straight into the sun, even though adults warned you not to? Like before playing football in your room? This is why lamps with plastic shades are the safest choice. Kanlux BENO LED Plafond diffuses the light effectively and is resistant to impacts. If installed just below the ceiling, it will provide diffused light and be safe to use, even when toddlers accidentally hit it with a ball while playing.
Safe light sources are also a good option in lamps with replaceable bulbs. Kanlux iQ-LED LIFE lamps are a great solution. This product is widely recognized for its photobiological safety, an eye-friendly colour temperature and reliability. The new models emit light similar to the natural one. They have reduced blue light, which is good for the user's mood and well-being, while still being fully functional.
Portable standard lamps and LED light sources
A combination of wall lights with soft lighting, more powerful hanging lamps for general lighting and a small standard lamp, such as Kanlux DAIBO LED, allows you to adjust the lighting to the current needs and to modify it according to the development stage of the youngest member of your household. Make sure, however, that hot luminaires and other lighting elements are out of reach of children. The safest sources in this respect are LEDs, as their operating temperature is very low. However, we always have to be careful with electricity.
If owe had to come up with a general rule for choosing suitable lamps for a child's room, it would be: "consider various uses of lighting and keep safety in mind". For the latter reason, it is best to have it installed by a professional on separate circuits.
