Choose to install a living net and your children will thank you (or rather shout their thanks). Why? Because, as we explained in this Feelnets article on 10 ideas to optimize your interior (and your exterior too) with a living net, it naturally creates an additional play space for your children. But that’s not the only reason why a living net is really an excellent idea when you’re a parent. Feelnets, your specialist in custom nets, tells you more.
The Living Net, to Build that Playroom You Thought You Didn’t Have Space For
It’s not always easy to find space in a house for a playroom for your children. Because a playroom means a room “sacrificed” for this single purpose. It is indeed quite complicated to give another room this dual function.
Having tried it, generations of parents know that a living room / playroom or a kitchen / playroom are, for example, not a good idea. And as explained in this deco.fr article on mistakes to avoid in a playroom, it is very important that the playroom is not just a small corner set up in another room. The bedroom should be dedicated to calm, so toys should be placed in another room and the bedroom cannot therefore be a child’s main playroom.
Creating a mezzanine with a living net allows you to create an additional room via a space that already existed in your home, such as a hallway for example. So without needing to create a real extra room. This space can then be dedicated to children during play hours.
And if you’re afraid of seeing your children’s toys regularly fall to the floor through the net’s mesh and break, don’t worry. Feelnets’ interior and living nets offer mesh sizes of 30x30mm or 13x13mm which are tight enough not to let through either a toy or a child’s foot.
The Living Net, a Giant Hammock for a Relaxing and Reassuring Place
Children also need “quiet times” and to be able to settle in a comfortable place. Once again, the bedroom is not necessarily the ideal place for this kind of relaxation moment. The latter being more suitable for accommodating only the child’s sleeping moments.
The living net, even if it is stretched “above the void” remains a cozy and reassuring place for children. A bit like a cocoon, this place can be enhanced with cushions to help the child relax, read or simply dream…
This real giant hammock (on which it is however possible to walk) is then an invitation for the child to lie down and therefore naturally calm down.
Because the Living Net Offers Maximum Safety
One thing that remains essential to explain well to children as soon as you set up an indoor living net, especially in a mezzanine: the living net is not a trampoline. The very resistant cordage is not at all elastic. It therefore does not offer a bouncing sensation. You should never jump on a living net. Never.
That being said, habitat nets are extremely strong, capable of supporting more than 240kg/m² (the weight of 5 adults depending on the surface area). Children can therefore play on them for as long as they want without ever taking the slightest risk.
As explained in our Feelnets guide for choosing the right habitat net, safety is our priority and our custom-made nets can easily support the weight of several people at the same time. Even better, our nets with our 30×30 mesh (and even more so with our 13×13 mesh) are perfect for babies’ feet, which won’t pass through and should not let children’s toys pass through either.
Because the Habitat Net Allows You to Always Keep an Eye on your Children
While some children need solitude and time to themselves, many feel more reassured if they know their parents are close by. Installing a habitat net above, for example, a living room, allows children to have fun or relax freely, while being close to them.
Better than an open door, which often requires shouting to be heard, the habitat net allows you to see the child, interact with them or simply indicate your presence.
