Children's room

A genuine, natural sheepskin is soft, breathable and temperature-regulating. Merino sheepskins in particular are ideal, as they cause skin irritation in neither children nor adults. This is because merino wool is very fine and soft, which makes it ideal for babies.

Lambskins and sheepskins are practical, versatile companions on which your child can lie, play or sit – in the car seat or pram, for example. The baby sheepskin is pleasantly soft and cosy. We offer a selection of organic sheepskins for children as well as medically tanned sheepskins, which are particularly well suited to babies' sensitive skin.

What research says about asthma and allergies

You might assume that a genuine sheepskin encourages allergies or asthma. A large German long-term study points to the opposite.

In the LISAplus study of 2,441 children, those who had slept on animal skin during their first three months of life had a 79% lower risk of asthma at the age of 6 and a 41% lower risk at the age of 10. The researchers suspect that the microbes naturally present in the skin train the immune system in a similar way to growing up in the countryside – further research is needed to confirm this link. The results were published in the European Respiratory Journal. You will find a suitable baby sheepskin in our shop.

Genuine sheepskin is a hard-wearing yet soft material. That's why sheepskin products are perfect for the children's room. This eco-friendly natural material, free from synthetic substances, can serve as a soft play rug. At the same time it works as a decorative and functional detail – both on a chair and in the reading corner.

A bean bag in genuine sheepskin is a cosy and comfortable piece of furniture for children. It combines warmth and comfort and offers a flexible seat where little ones can't easily hurt themselves. It's also the ideal spot for relaxing together and reading aloud. If you're looking for a smaller seat for the children's room, our sheepskin pouffes are the perfect choice. They are made of soft sheepskin and have soft padding that makes them comfortable to sit on.

Below you'll find three decorating tips for the children's room – though of course the design of any children's room depends on your child's taste. So choose the tips that suit your child best to create the perfect children's room.

3 decorating tips for the children's room

1. Plenty of room to play – ideally with a soft sheepskin rug that makes playing on the floor cosier. If possible, set up different play areas such as a reading corner, a building corner or a creative station. Use colourful, child-friendly furniture and shelves to keep toys and books organised and within easy reach.
2. Posters or child-friendly wallpaper create a cheerful and inviting atmosphere. Colourful blankets or curtains bring extra life to the room. Choose furniture and accessories in child-friendly colours and designs, such as sheepskin cushions or a sheepskin bean bag, that match your child's interests and preferences.
3. Make sure the bed or cot is comfortable and safe. Use high-quality bed linen, sheepskin cushions and a baby sheepskin for extra comfort and warmth. Set up a small reading corner near the bed so that you and your child can read books together before bedtime.

If you'd like to give your son a room full of comfort and style, a genuine sheepskin combines robustness with elegance. With its soft look, its resilience and its many possible uses, sheepskin is an essential part of any boy's room.

We've put together three valuable tips on how to design an adventurous boy's room with genuine sheepskin.

1. A hard-wearing play rug: A durable yet cosy rug belongs in every boy's room. A genuine sheepskin rug gives the room a warm and inviting atmosphere and at the same time makes the perfect surface for play.
2. A comfortable place to sit: A cosy, stylish area for resting and relaxing is a must as well. A large cushion or a comfortable sheepskin bean bag creates a snug and quiet corner. The soft material makes for an inviting atmosphere and gives the room a touch of luxury.
3. Adventurous walls: Give the walls of the boy's room an exciting touch by using a natural hide as wall decoration. Hang a goatskin or a cowhide on the wall, for example, to give the room a rustic feel that's close to nature.

Let your creativity run free and discover the many design possibilities that natural skins and hides offer for a boy's room. Their durability and unmistakable comfort help to create a unique and unforgettable children's room.
