Laminate Offers Parents the Best of Both Worlds for Their Children's Rooms

Superior Decorating Options and Safety Features

~ Sporting Playful Patterns and Safety Edges, It's Easy to Clean ~

Parents love to encourage their little ones to explore the depths of their creative energies. That said, it's easy to see why these little darlings are tough on home furnishings. As they test the boundaries of their environments, they can't avoid giving the décor a tremendous beating. Wilsonart International therefore advocates laminate as the best possible choice for children's rooms and playrooms - it's affordable, great looking and offers child-friendly features such as custom edges without sharp angles. Here's more:

• Not just for kitchens. Laminate's super-resistant, wear-and-tear properties make it the ideal surfacing material for high-stress furniture such as tables, dressers, shelves, play stations and even bed frames. There is no limit to the type of furniture that can be created with laminate.
   
• Wall and door enhancers. Protect walls and doors from crayons, dirt and dents while simultaneously dressing them up with large sheets of laminate. Normally used only in commercial environments, laminate for wall and door décor has now made its way into the high-traffic areas of residential homes.
   
• Safety features. Children take as many hard knocks as they give. Therefore, the gently curved edges of certain Wilsonart Custom Edges serve as safeguards, since they eliminate the sharp 90-degree angles common with laminate furniture. They also do away with the brown laminate seam, creating a stylish look.
   
• Design options abound. Wilsonart has a large, cutting-edge collection of colorful and neutral laminate patterns that children can easily grow into, in addition to a bevy of designs perfectly crafted for the children's room, such as:
   
1. Monster Trucks - An array of colorful trucks with oversized tires
2. Flower Power - Vibrant flowers of varying sizes set against a clean white background
3. Denim - A funky denim pattern with unisex appeal
4. Handprints - Adorable little handprints in a range of hues
    
• Affordable. Based on the damage tough tykes can render, high-priced decorative materials just don't make sense. Laminate is priced affordably, so it is a savior for parents who plan to redecorate as their children mature.
   
• Durable and low-maintenance. Laminate is tough enough to withstand the hard knocks that children administer to their surroundings while being a snap to clean - use a mild soap or detergent and wipe with a damp cloth or sponge.
