Imagine this situation – your son aged two and half years is put inside a separate nursery, you have created so passionately, for exclusive use of the child. You are complacent having provided everything there – a feather-soft bed, beautiful mattresses and pillows, enchanting toys to play with and whatever. The room is illuminated well and it has windows with glass panes, on all sides. The windows are generous in allowing bright Sunlight, at the wee hours of dawn and throughout the day.
You cannot afford to close the windows fully, as it will lead to suffocation in the room. More so during hot summer days, when the Sun sends in not only light but also heat in excessive measures. So what you do? You close the window pane with any one of the traditional Blackout vertical blinds, mentioned above. Then only you realize the Sunlight is not stopped fully by these blinds; and during the midday when you want your cute little son to take a nap without disturbance, when you can look after your other preoccupations, it is most disturbing.
Also for fixing these blinds, you need the help of somebody (mostly your busy husband) to get the Roller blinds fixed with nails, screws, hammer and tongs. There is another danger worth mentioning here. Recently the media reports blared about the tender kids caught in accidents, by the loose-hanging cords of Roller blinds, causing injuries and even death in some cases. The Child Accident Prevention Trust (CAPT) has given extensive guidance, on the risks involved in these traditional Blackout vertical blinds.
As of now, you have facility to buy online innovative and fantastic Baby blackout blinds. Marketed as Children’s blinds (which can be used in your bedroom as well), the sophistication comes in avoiding the risks first – no ropes or wheels; easy fixing by hand and held tightly by magnetic strips; so no rolling up or down daily; made of fabric material in assorted colors, to choose your choice from; and most importantly they are advantageous in saving energy.
How they save energy is because they are designed in blackout fabric, and designed in such a way to allow millimeters of gap, between the window pane and the fabric. This acts as superb insulation, to allow air-flow but prevent heat and Sunlight. So you have an excellent protection to stop that irritating Sunlight from your son’s bedroom the modern way!
