Eliminating hidden decoration hazards around them is one of the prerequisites for children to grow up healthily, so the decoration of children's rooms should not be sloppy at all. Today, the editor summarizes the eight hidden safety hazards of children's room decoration for everyone, and reminds parents, remember not to blindly pursue good looks and cheat your own children!
Hidden danger 1: Exceeding the standard of benzene series
Compared with formaldehyde, benzene series are more harmful to children's health. Benzene series can cause damage to the blood system, leading to a decrease in hematopoietic ability, which may induce leukemia.
Benzene series mainly exist in the oil-based paints used for painting woodware. Oil-based paints that use toluene, xylene, etc. as solvents are prone to volatile benzene series. So try not to use oil-based paint at home. When buying solid wood furniture, make sure that the furniture paint is completely dry and will not volatilize.
Hidden danger 2: Windows are not equipped with protective bars
Most of the news about children falling from windows due to playfulness often reported on TV was caused by the owners dismantling the window guards without authorization. So everyone must not take it lightly, take these basic protective measures well, don't dismantle the installed fences, and nip the danger in the bud.
Hidden danger 3: electric shock risk of socket
The height of the socket is usually no more than 50 centimeters from the ground, and some sockets are even installed in the corners. Curious children can easily touch them. If you accidentally poke something into the socket, the consequences will be disastrous.
Hidden danger 4: Overwhelming injury
There are many news stories about children being crushed by furniture every year. It is actually very simple to prevent such crushing incidents. You only need to install anti-fall devices on the higher cabinets at home.
Hidden danger 5: formaldehyde exceeds the standard
Formaldehyde has been listed as a carcinogen by the World Health Organization, and it mainly comes from plank furniture, wooden floors, latex paint on walls, and soft textiles. Among them, wooden furniture and wooden floors are most likely to be polluted, and the longest pollution cycle can be as long as 15 years. Therefore, it is recommended to use solid wood as the main furniture, choose tiles for floor decoration, use Chuang Jing for walls, use soft textiles such as soft carpets and floor mats as little as possible, and open more windows for ventilation.
Hidden danger 6: lead concentration is too high
The lead absorption rate of children is higher than that of adults. Long-term exposure to an environment with excessively high lead concentrations can easily lead to lead poisoning, which can lead to lesions in the nervous system, respiratory system and other body parts.
Lead element mainly exists in latex paint and oil paint, especially in brightly colored wall paint and pigment. Therefore, when choosing wall paints and pigments, try to choose light colors, and choose wall paints and pigments that are environmentally friendly and cost-effective, because low-grade and inferior products usually use unenvironmentally friendly additives, resulting in excessive lead content. Choose environmentally friendly and healthy Chuangjing integrated wall surface!
Hidden danger 7: The color tone is too bright
Children usually prefer bright colors, but if bright colors impact children's vision for a long time, it will reduce the children's recognition of the color of other objects, so when choosing the color tone of the children's room, try to choose light colors and reduce the use of too bright colors.
Hidden danger 8: Arbitrary placement of green plants
Many people like to place some green plants indoors to beautify the environment, but not all green plants are suitable for children's rooms. For example, thorny green plants, such as roses, prickly pears, etc., can easily cause stab wounds if touched by mistake. There are also poisonous green plants, such as dripping Guanyin, narcissus, etc., which can cause poisoning if eaten by mistake. Therefore, the choice of plants in the children's room must be chosen carefully. If it is only for aesthetics, it is enough to place fake flowers and grass.
