The lighting of the child’s room should change with his age, because a softer light is recommended for babies in the first years of life, and bright ones are suitable for teenagers. It is better if the room will be several sources of light. Ceiling chandeliers are mounted to illuminate the entire area of ​​the room or its play area.

A lamp is also needed on the desk: homework or handicraft requires eye strain, so an additional light source is needed. At nightfall, the nightlights come on.

Lamps for children can illuminate the entire room or its individual zones. Depending on this, they are divided into several types.

• suspended;
• built in;

A variety of types allows you to choose the right option for the baby's room. In the bedroom, you can install suspended or built-in models that are mounted in a certain point of the ceiling, and for better lighting - are mounted in several zones at once. Recently, spots have become popular - ceiling lamps with several lamps, each of which can be directed in a certain direction. They are suitable for families with two or more children - then the bed or work zone of each child will be well lit.

Such lighting devices are used as additional light sources while watching TV or reading in bed. Wall lights will not stop the child from falling asleep when one of the parents reads the bedtime story of the child’s favorite fairy tale.

This type of light is very popular with children. This product is a desk lamp of small size, which gives a muffled light. There are very different designs: in the form of airplanes and cars, fabulous castles or characters.

There are models that run on batteries - they can be located in any places, regardless of the placement of outlets. For the smallest, there is a mobile with a night light on a cot. For older children purchased bedside lamps, which are mounted on the bedside table. A variety of models allows you to choose the most suitable for age option.

This product is a lighting device on a high stand. The ceiling light covers the light source and can be of any design - just like the stand itself. However, it is better to install such devices in a room with older children, because babies may accidentally catch them or knock them off with a toy.

It is important to create such conditions for the student that he was comfortable learning lessons. Therefore, his workplace must be properly organized. The lamp is the attribute on which the pupil’s vision depends, which means that the choice should be taken as seriously as possible. Lighting for the student should:

• To be made from environmentally friendly material.
• To have suitable sizes: not to be too bulky on a desk or very small.
• Be comfortable to use.
• To be created from shock-resistant materials so that as a result of an accidental fall, the child is not injured.
• Combine harmoniously with the interior of the working area - to create optimal conditions.

There are also requirements for the selection of the ceiling, lamp, base, method of attachment:

• The lampshade or lampshade should be made of durable plastic that will not break into fragments when dropped. Metal construction will heat up quickly. To avoid hand burns, the ceiling must be equipped with a special handle that allows you to adjust the angle of inclination.
• There are several types of light bulbs: incandescent, halogen, fluorescent, LED. Each of them gives a certain lighting. Saving energy is a condition for parents, and for a student it is important that the light bulb is not very bright, so as not to injure his eyes. However, it should be well illuminate the work area.

• The base of the lamp may be fixed, with a given height, but this is not very convenient for the student. It is much better if it is flexible or with a sliding mechanism - the child himself will be able to adjust the lighting area.
• The important point is the choice of the method of mounting the lamp: on a clothespin, on a clamp, installation on the surface. Here it is necessary to take into account the location of the lamp (at the edge of the table, in the center). The student should be comfortable learning lessons at the table. He should not be afraid to hook or throw off the lamp.

The brightness of the light is very important in the baby’s room. If this is the main lighting, then it should be soft and diffused. The light from the night light should be muffled. The ceiling light can regulate the luminous flux, but the choice of a light bulb - the source of this flux - plays an important role.

If you are going to give preference to a particular product, you need to familiarize yourself with its advantages and disadvantages. In total there are 4 types of light bulbs:

• Incandescent lamps. These models can heat up the ceiling, but there is no ionizing radiation from them, there is a high color rendition. They give diffused light and are pleasant for perception.
• LED. These are the most durable light bulbs, they are safe for health, as there are no harmful substances from them. They can differ in high luminous efficiency, be used as nightlights.

• Fluorescent. It is undesirable to install them in the nursery - because of the content of mercury. The emitted cold light will tire the eyes.
• Halogen. Forms and types are different. Such devices can produce stray light or a “beam”, illuminating a specific area. They also allow you to create different color effects, make the design of the room interesting and unusual.

Emphasis should be placed on how the light bulbs will be used: as a night light, main lighting, additional, work area lighting, and so on.
