Some of the most important features when choosing flooring for a kid’s room are safety, durability and the ability to clean it easily. Flooring that has some ‘give’ would be ideal to soften falls and prevent injury. But, the floor would still have to be durable enough to withstand spills, falling toys and wear and tear from dragged play toys.

Linoleum, rubber and vinyl are perfect choices because they are easy to clean and have a fair amount of giveLaminate flooring is another feasible option which is easy to maintain, but not as spill–resistantCork offers all the desired features and is green choice which is durable and comfortable underfootHardwood flooring can fall victim to children's toys, spills and rough–housingCarpet is soft underfoot, but can stain easily. Be sure to choose carpet that is stain resistantTile is great because it's almost damage proof, but it's a very hard so tumbles and falls on tile will result in bumps and bruises

If you love the flooring you currently have and don't want to replace it, look into foam mats that go over existing flooring. Many foam floors now come in bright colors with the ABC's and 123's so kids can play in a safe environment and also one that is educational.

Great post! Those design looks perfect. Great selection of flooring colors. Thank you for sharing. I'm looking forward to read more of your blogs.
Regarding the flooring my aunty installed dark chocolate black timber flooring and she swears by it she has two small children so she does need to sweep each day but she purchased a large swivel broom and it only takes her 5 minutes to sweep a large area, why she loves it is because it does not show any marks so she only needs to mop on a weekly basis on the other hand we have large concrete style tiles and they need mopping every second day.

I believe carpet is nice and warm for children, but not always the best flooring for them.
PVC flooring is not to hard for children, and they can play what they wont. Aqua-stop means a more patience mother. Better for everyone. Handy-cleaning.

Hello Henk! The carpet is really warmer for children and for everyone but keeps more cloths and dust.
PVC flooring keeps cleaner home and is easy to maintain but is colder and harder ( if the kid fall )

Best regards,
