Children's Rugs

Buy children’s rugs online: soft rugs for children’s rooms and play areas

Colourful children’s rugs are a sensible addition to laminate or parquet. If the furnishings are already geared to the urge to crawl and play, a children’s rug rounds off the room. On the soft surface, your child can let off steam safely and in a relaxed way, while the patterns stimulate the imagination and exuberant play.

As soon as your little one is old enough to crawl, the urge to explore begins. Younger children in particular spend a lot of time on the floor. All the more important, then, is a rug that meets these demands: children’s rugs for girls and boys should not only be cosy and inviting, but also create a comfortable atmosphere and be well suited to play. Robust materials that protect your child from the hard floor are just as crucial. The wide selection of models offers the right product for every age and every taste – from toddlers to teenagers.

Children’s rugs made of soft, washable and robust materials

As children spend far more time on their favourite rug than adults do, the material plays a particularly important role. The choice is wide and depends on what matters most to you when buying. Synthetic materials have the advantage of picking up less dirt overall, which is especially useful when your child is younger and less careful when spilling or making a mess.

Natural materials, on the other hand, feel particularly pleasant on the skin and ensure a comfortable indoor climate. Many rugs also have a non-slip coating on the back so that the rug stays securely in place.

Which materials are suitable for children’s rugs?

Children’s rugs are available today in many different materials, each with specific advantages. Choose the material that best suits your requirements and your child’s everyday life.

Natural: soft, kind to the skin and warming

Natural materials such as wool, cotton or jute offer special comfort in the children’s room. They feel pleasantly soft and warm and create a cosy atmosphere that invites children to play. Natural fibres are also breathable and regulate the humidity in the room, which contributes to a healthy indoor climate.

One advantage of natural materials is that they are kind to the skin, which makes them ideal for sensitive children’s skin. Wool rugs in particular are effective thanks to their natural dirt resistance and self-cleaning properties. As wool picks up dust less quickly and repels moisture, rugs made of natural fibres stay attractive and hygienic for a long time – ideal for a lively environment.

In this way, natural rugs not only bring warmth and cosiness into the room but also impress with their environmentally friendly nature.

Synthetic: dirt-repellent and insensitive to dirt
Washable rugs are often made of synthetic materials such as acrylic, polyester or polypropylene. These materials are particularly hard-wearing and less prone to soiling, as they hardly absorb any dust or stains. Even with stubborn dirt, they easily withstand vigorous rubbing.

Synthetic fibres are also ideal for allergy sufferers and are excellent for use on underfloor heating. In addition to their durability, they score with attractive value for money, which makes them a popular choice for children’s rooms.

Children’s rugs for the nursery: soft, warm and robust

As is well known, younger children in particular spend much of their time in their rooms on the floor. They romp around, lie on their colourful favourite rug, leaf through books or spend time there with siblings and playmates.

While sitting directly on the floor for a long time quickly becomes too cold, a rug ensures that your child always stays warm – even after several hours and even barefoot. A high-pile rug is particularly cuddly here: it not only looks soft and cosy but also creates a pleasant climate in rooms without underfloor heating.

Play rugs for the children’s room: children’s rugs for playing and romping

A rug to play on is a real hit with younger children and serves a dual purpose: it complements the interior design and at the same time serves as a play object in its own right. Creative children’s patterns invite them to tip out their toys and give free rein to their imagination.

The patterns and motifs on these rugs inspire ever new ideas for games and invite children to use the rug creatively. You can either leave it in the children’s room permanently or roll it up and store it after playing. It is worth having several at once for variety. 

Modern children’s rugs for older children and teenagers

As your children grow older, their demands on the rug change too: style becomes more important, as does colour coordination with the furniture. As rugs are easy to replace, you can easily respond to your children’s changing tastes.

Gabbeh rugs are popular with children of all ages: they are resilient and colourful and, thanks to their versatile designs, suit a wide variety of children’s and teenagers’ rooms. In rather neutral rooms, a colourful rug adds a lively accent, while in colourful rooms a subtle model brings calm and harmony.

Why children’s rugs make sense in the children’s room

Children, especially the youngest, love playing and crawling on the floor. How reassuring to know that a fluffy surface protects them from cold floors. A rug also has the advantage of protecting wooden floors, laminate or parquet from scratches. The non-slip backing also ensures that the rug stays securely in place and reduces the risk of slipping.

A children’s rug can be rolled up quickly so that the floor can easily be mopped and kept clean. A quick beating rids it of dust and crumbs. In the case of heavier soiling or stains, most children’s rugs can easily be cleaned in the washing machine. Should the rug show signs of wear over time or your child prefer new motifs, the rug can easily be exchanged for another model.

How to clean and care for children’s rugs properly

Children’s rugs for boys & girls have to withstand a lot these days: from wild jumps and toys to food stains and contact with all kinds of clothing. To keep it beautiful and hygienic for a long time, we give you valuable tips on cleaning and care here. You will also find detailed instructions on the enclosed product label.

Vacuum children’s rugs regularly and keep them clean

Vacuum dust and coarse dirt regularly to keep the rug clean and hygienic in the long term.

Removing stains from children’s rugs quickly and gently

You should blot fresh stains as quickly as possible with a clean cloth. For more stubborn stains, ox-gall soap can help: gently rub it into the stain and then blot it with a white, colourfast cloth to remove the loosened dirt.

Cleaning wool children’s rugs gently

When cleaning wool rugs, use only a little water and avoid vigorous rubbing to prevent the wool from felting.

Dealing with loose threads on children’s rugs

Carefully cut off individual loose threads with scissors instead of pulling them out, so as not to damage the rug.

Laying out and smoothing new children’s rugs properly

New children’s rugs may ripple slightly at first. Simply roll the rug up in the opposite direction – this smooths it out and it will soon lie flat on the floor.
