Unlike blankets of other categories, when choosing a blanket for children, the emphasis should be placed not on the size of the furniture, but on the age of the child. At first glance, children's size rugs are not particularly different from similar products for the home. However, they must have a number of additional characteristics, as they are used for babies.

It is necessary to decide what role the product should play. If it is intended for the discharge of the baby from the hospital, it is better to choose models with a soft and pleasant texture so as not to irritate the baby or cause redness. It is worth stopping on light blankets of small sizes: 70x100, 80x110 cm.

When choosing a blanket for a children's room, you can choose larger models - 120x200, 90x200 cm. You should also take into account the presence of a decorative headrest or lower back of the crib. It is better to choose a blanket made of soft and pleasant materials: natural cotton or bamboo, fleece or combined materials. They are easy to clean and durable.

For children, it is better to choose blankets in bright colors so that they will be pleased to use them. Such products are useful not only for making a bed or using in a stroller, but also for warming a child after water procedures. For these purposes, blankets with a size of 100x200 cm are perfect.

Before buying a bedspread, you should measure the mattress or furniture where you plan to place the product. It is necessary to find out its width, height and length, then, based on these data, you can start choosing a suitable blanket.

There are standard formulas for determining the required dimensions of a future product.

• To find out how wide the blanket is required, double the height of the mattress and fold it down to its width. (If the height of the mattress is 15 and the width is 160, then 20x2 + 160 = 200 cm. In this case, models with a width of 200 can be considered. This is the optimal selection condition, with this calculation it will be possible to choose a model that is ideal for any furniture).

• To find out the length of the bedspreadthat does not have decorative headrests and backs, it is enough to know the length and height of the mattress. (If the height is also 20, and the length is 200, then you should choose from the 220x200 models).

• To find out the length of the blanket on the bed with decorative elements, only the length of the mattress should be measured.

Unfortunately, the rule “more is better”, loved by many, is not applicable to the choice of a blanket. This is due to the fact that the remains of the product will either collect at the edges or create inconvenience for use in life. You should choose models that are most suitable for the area of ​​furniture where it will be placed.

If there is a desire to purchase a blanket with openwork edges or other decorative elements, you can consider models with a length of 10-20 centimeters longer.

As for the blankets for cots, the size of the blanket will be chosen in accordance with the top of the mattress. Its entire width will not be used, since children's mattresses most often have bumpers along the edges.

A plaid in the life of a modern person can perform a number of different functions. It can be an interior item, a way to update it, give the apartment a new, neat and well-groomed look. A bedspread can be a great way to keep warm in nature, and to feel comfortable when traveling by car or other transport. It is only important to determine for yourself the required dimensions and type of the desired product.
