Kids Rooms

Two hazards in this room are regulated, and both are preventable

Furniture tip-over and corded window coverings are the two things in a child's room that federal safety regulators have written rules about, because both have killed children. The rules name standards, dates and test requirements, and a product either meets them or it does not.

We give you the standard numbers so you can check a product listing yourself, and the anchoring guidance that applies regardless of what a piece of furniture was sold as.

Guides

Furnish it safely

Written from primary sources, with every figure linked to the page it came from.

Kids Furniture

The tip-over numbers, the standard that applies to dressers made after September 2023, and an honest answer on price.

Kids Beds and Bedroom Sets

What the federal bunk bed, crib and crib mattress standards actually require, and the numbers you can measure before you buy.

Kids Bedding Sets

The federal rules land on the mattress and the bed, not the bedding, and that changes what is worth checking before you buy.

Kids Room Decorating and Decor

Published wallpaper and decal prices, the federal rule that governs repainting an older room, and what anchoring has to do with decor.

Kids Room Themes and Ideas

How to build a theme out of reversible materials with published prices, and which theme choices carry a real safety cost.

Furniture Tip-Over Safety

What CPSC actually counted, which furniture and which ages, and the limits of the federal standard that took effect in September 2023.

Window Blind Cord Safety

The federal cord standard, the strangulation counts CPSC published with it, and why the agency says cleats and supervision do not solve it.
