Kids Festivals! What to Take? Kids Bean Bags and a Sense of Humour
Posted by carolyn | Filed under Kids Bean Bags, Outdoor Trends
In recent years there has been an increase in the number of festivals tailored specifically to kids. The Lollibop is a huge annual festival for kids held in London each year. When all the fun and excitement of the day is over, let your children relax on kids bean bags.
Bean bags for kids can provide a soft play area and relaxing space away from the main event. They are perfect if you want to have a picnic or visit a festival. Kids bean bags are available in a rainbow of colours giving you lots of choice. Just remember to take more than one kids bean bag because you don’t want a fight on your hands for the best seat!
If you’re planning on taking your kids along to a big music festival such as Glastonbury, here are a few tips to keep kids happy. It’s a good idea to buy ear defenders for your children to wear. Children’s ears are sensitive to loud music and too much noise can also make them irritable. Common sense prevails too – take along lots of drinks for the kids, hats for shade, and sun protection. Kids bean bags are great to take along, light to carry and will give your children a comfy place to relax. Bean bags for kids come in a huge range of styles and sizes, to suit children of all ages, from toddlers to teenagers. For a kids festival it’s best to choose outdoor kids bean bags. Made from water-resistant and wipe clean material they can be used indoors and outdoors.

Bean Bags for Adults and Children with Autism
Posted by carolyn | Filed under Bean Bag Chairs & Bean Furniture, Kids Bean Bags, Sensory Bean Bags
Bean bags offer warmth, support and comfort! It has been widely recognised that bean bags can be beneficial for people with autism. Bean bags can help to create an environment full of joy and safety. They are soft and may prevent unnecessary bumps from hard, traditional furniture. The comfortable landing space of a bean bag is superb for children with autism. A safe play environment, that is affordable too!
Autism was recently put under the Spotlight in Louis Theroux’s recent programme for BBC2: Extreme Love – Autism. Did you watch it? The programme focused on Louis visiting a specialist school, New Jersey’s Development Learning Centre. Autistic children can be prone to anxiety and anger. The comfort of a bean bag can help a child to relax and keep calm in the face of frustration. The National Autistic Society recommends using bean bags in order to create a sensory room, a distraction –free and relaxing area. They have many useful tips on what other equipment to use in a sensory room, for example a colour wheel. Parents of children with autism have given BeanBagBazaar some very positive feedback on how useful bean bags are to their families. This is just one of the many comments we have received:
“I have two handicapped children with Autism and sensory issues, they also have no speech. At ages 6 and almost 4, the boys are like human wrecking machines with no sense of danger and also have major issues with coordination. I can’t believe how much they love the bean bag and I just wish now I had ordered two one for each child as even in the first few hours here, it has really made a massive change in their ability to sit and watch TV, because they are comfy they can relax. The little one even fell asleep on it which by the way is a miracle he is like a Duracell bunny. So once again many thanks for both service and product, as the bag is so sturdy (they destroy anything flimsy in seconds)”.
Martin McKenzie, BeanBagBazaar customer.
The aesthetic qualities of bean bags must not go unrecognised! Bright and bold or soft and subtle, there is a wide range of colours to suit adults and children. Bean bags supply huge comfort for people with autism, creating a relaxing area in bedrooms and living rooms. They are easy to carry and manoeuvre between rooms. Bean bag chairs are also useful for anyone doing exercises as part of their health routine, for example those with muscular dystrophy.
Bean bags can offer a “hug” – it’s as simple as that!
Read this excellent review - a Kids Baz Bag® is proving useful for Erin, who had a hip spica:
“Any parents looking for essential equipment for a child in a spica should seriously consider buying this.” Emma – emmaand3.com.

A Stylish Den for Teenagers
Posted by carolyn | Filed under Bean Bag Chairs & Bean Furniture, General News
Teenagers love their own space and like to personalise and define their own room from the rest of the house. Many teens adorn their room with posters of their favourite stars and photos. There are many funky ways to decorate a teen’s bedroom. Invest in built-in wardrobes, mirrored wall decorations, bright bean bags and a large noticeboard for cuttings, posters and photos. Noticeboards are a good idea to protect your walls so that your new paint colour isn’t ruined. Bold accessories and soft furnishings are useful to add personality to a room. Teenagers often have strong views on décor, so avoid a battle by letting them research decoration styles, within a limited budget. Affordable accessories are a great option for teens’ bedrooms. Teenagers often have changing tastes, so avoid expensive fad buys. Instead invest in some hardwearing, vibrant and great value for money bean bags. Low seating such as designer bean bags are perfect for teens having friends round as well as revising.
Designer bean bags may appeal to teenagers – the ICON™ range is unique and exclusive to BeanBagBazaar! Here are a few of our favourites:
ICON™ Floral Bazaar Bag® £109.99
ICON™ New York Bazaar Bag® £109.99

Play-friendly Bedrooms
Posted by carolyn | Filed under Bean Bag Chairs & Bean Furniture, Interior Trends
Who said practical and fun don’t go together? Not us! Childhood is full of fun and a child’s bedroom should reflect this. When children are of school age they will start to socialise with friends more, and their bedroom can become a multi-functional space for both play and study. Look to create a flexible space that can function as anything from a craft workshop one minute, to a social club and den the next. Here are our top tips…
Kid-Proof Seating
Today as modern consumers we expect products to fulfil a multitude of needs in one. Childrens bean bags are bright, hardwearing and modern. Bean bags can be used in a whole variety of situations, from a kid’s soft play area to a supportive chair for reading. A kids bean bag is both soft and supportive, meaning no more bumps and bruises from traditional furniture! Bean bags for kids are great kid-proof chairs, floor cushions and loungers. They can jazz up a room – funky and bright they are perfect for tweens!

Hidden Storage and Cabin Beds
Space saving is on all of our agendas and this is no more true than for children’s bedrooms. Packed to the rafters with toys, books and school equipment, kid’s bedrooms can get rather crowded. Why don’t you invest in a bed which doubles up as a storage unit? There is wide range of beds and bunk beds available that have in-built storage. Cabin beds come with in-built drawers, cupboards and even desk areas in some cases. Finding the right storage means less mess and more space for play! If you are struggling for space it is a good idea to buy multi-purpose products. What about trying the Do2® XL 2-in-1 Bean Bag Bed? A bean bag and lounger bed in one! Perfect for impromptu sleepovers!
Space for Play
Nobody can have too much fun! Kids can enjoy playing and spreading out their latest toys and games when you leave the centre of a room free of bulky furniture. Use a bold floor rug as a focal point for a child’s bedroom. We love this pink heart rug which looks pretty alongside the heart shaped bean bag:

Heart Girls Bean Bag £36.99
Make tidying Fun
The very mention of tidying can get kids running away from you! The best way to get kids in the spirit of helping out and keep mess at bay is to make them think it was their idea, and fun instead of a chore. Kit out their bedroom with funky bright hooks, wall storage and pretty shelving units. We spotted this room design:
