It’s good to have a bathroom that’s geared not just toward adults, but also children. It must have plenty of storage, easy-to-maintain surfaces, sturdy fixtures and accommodations for the little one. So, you must consider a number of different items when designing a kid’s bathroom.

Lower Vanity Countertop
Children will have to learn how to brush their teeth and wash their hands as part of their daily habit. Consider lowering the height of the vanity countertop. This way, they can reach the faucet without having to be on their tiptoes all the time. Otherwise, you can invest in a lift-out step that can be installed underneath the vanity. Rather than bring in a stool, they can just pull it out and stand on it.
Non-Slip, Easy-to-Clean Surfaces
When looking for tile flooring, check if it is slippery when wet. Porcelain offers higher levels of durability, but if you are looking to prevent falls, consider tiles with textured surfaces. To achieve a low-maintenance bathroom, choose larger tiles. They require fewer grout lines to keep the walls and floors clean.
Adequate Lighting
Of course, a child-friendly bathroom should be well-lit. Replacement windows must be installed high above the wall to let sunlight in during the daytime. As far as artificial lighting is considered, you can invest in an automatic switch that brightens the bulb upon opening the door.
Easy-Access Tub
For children to be safe while they enjoy bath time, you can improve tub access by including a graduating step in the basin. Invest in a hand-held shower head placed near the working bar. This way, you can easily shampoo your child’s hair. Plus, it’s easy to clean the tub with it. Anti-scald valves in faucets must also be considered.
