FlooringBare floors provides the healthiest environment. If you want to use floor coverings, it is best to use area rugs which can be washed periodically. The size would depend on your preference. Smaller area rugs are great at the bedside to give those little feet a warm place to put their feet when they hop out of bed in the morning.
Athough you can go with room size, or close to it, area rugs, there are smaller ones which provide ample floor covering for decorative purposes and even as a nice spot for play. |

The shelving units or bookcases, especially those with containers are perfect for kids craft items, crayons, etc that the younger child would use. Great place to store small games too!
