When designing kids’ rooms, safety and style should go hand in hand. From soft bedding to calming colors, every detail matters, especially your window coverings. At SelectBlinds, we believe that finding child safe blinds doesn’t mean compromising on style. With the right window treatments, you can create a safe, cozy, and stylish space your child will love to grow in.
Whether you’re prepping a nursery, redecorating a toddler’s bedroom, or updating a tween’s hangout spot, here’s how to choose the perfect blinds for children’s rooms that are both fashion-forward and family-safe.
Why Child-Safe Blinds Matter
Dangling cords from traditional window blinds pose a serious hazard to young children. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) reported in 2003 that there were “over 230 incidents involving children up to 8 years old due to strangulation hazards from window covering cords.”
In June 2024, a new safety regulation set by the U.S. CPSC and the Window Covering Manufacturers Association called for the elimination of free-hanging cords and multiple cord connections.
Safe blinds for children’s rooms should always be top of mind when decorating a kid’s space. Upgrading to the right lift system and materials not only helps prevent accidents but also gives you peace of mind as a parent.
At SelectBlinds, our curated collection of kid’s blinds is designed with safety and function in mind, so you can focus on building a room full of joy and personality. Prior to the safety standard changes, SelectBlinds went even further by proactively distributing thousands of cord cleats to households, showcasing a genuine commitment to consumer well-being.
Go Cordless for Safety & Simplicity
Cordless lift systems are the top standard when it comes to child safe blinds. These easy-to-use, modern alternatives eliminate pull cords entirely, which reduces the risk of entanglement while offering a clean and sleek appearance.
With cordless blinds, you get:
- A safer environment for children and pets
- Smooth operation—just push up or pull down!
- A tidy, uncluttered look perfect for stylish interiors
Whether you’re outfitting a sunny nursery or a playroom full of personality, cordless is the go-to lift style for families. You can enjoy this sleek look, even with a motorized remote or smart home automation.
Soft & Stylish Options for Kids’ Rooms
From nursery blackout curtains to vibrant roman blinds, your child’s window treatments can add color, texture, and comfort to their space. Here are a few fashionable favorites:
1. Blackout Blinds for Nap Time
Great for nurseries or young children’s bedrooms, blackout shades help create a restful atmosphere by blocking out light and minimizing distractions. They’re also ideal for keeping the room cool during naptime and bedtime.
2. Roman Blinds for Classic Charm
Roman blinds offer a timeless elegance with soft, pleated fabric folds that pair well with both modern and traditional decor. Choose from playful patterns or solid hues to coordinate with the room’s palette.
3. Custom Shades for a Perfect Fit
If you’re looking for a one-of-a-kind look or need to fit nonstandard windows, custom shades allow you to personalize every detail — from material and color to lift type and lining. The result? A unique window treatment made just for your child’s space.
GREENGUARD Gold & OKEO-Tex Fabrics: Breathe Easy
In addition to safety and style, your child’s health is a top priority. That’s why we offer blinds made from GREENGUARD Gold Certified and OEKO-TEX Certified fabrics.
- GREENGUARD Gold Certification ensures that materials meet strict chemical emissions limits, contributing to healthier indoor air quality.
- OEKO-TEX Certified Fabrics are tested for harmful substances, making them a safe choice for skin-sensitive environments like nurseries and kids’ rooms.
These certifications provide added reassurance that your window treatments are as safe as they are beautiful.
