Kid-Friendly Window Treatments

October 10, 2016 By Blinds To Go

Window treatments beautify your home, and they perform important functions. You want your window treatments to compliment your décor, but if you have small children, that is not your most vital concern. Chances are good that what you really want are kid-friendly blinds that are easy to clean. You’ll also want to opt for child safe blinds.

Easy to Clean Blinds

If you’re looking for kid-friendly blinds, then they must be easy to clean. Cellular shades have dust-repelling features that mean they don’t need to be cleaned often. Another easy to clean option is roller shades, which can be cleaned with a vacuum cleaner brush attachment. Kid-friendly blinds made of faux wood are another easy to clean choice. A mild cleaning solution and a rag can get the job done.

Child Safe Blinds

Being easy to clean is just one requirement. Concerned parents must also insist on child safe blinds. Many window treatment styles rely on cords or chains to change the position of the slats. As is widely known, this is not a particularly desirable option if you’re looking for child safe blinds. Cords pose a tremendous safety hazard to young children.

Cordless, Kid-Friendly Blinds

Cordless styles are among the most child safe blinds on the market. These models rely on a wand to adjust the blinds. Alternatively, you might choose a shade that is spring loaded and is operated by pulling on a bottom rail. All of these styles have the added bonus of being easy to clean, which makes them kid-friendly blinds.

Retrofit Existing Window Treatments

Recognizing that buying new kid-friendly blinds can be expensive, the window covering industry also provides free retrofit kits that are designed to make corded blinds safer. When it is not possible to buy child safe blinds, this is the best option.
