1. For food spills, juice/milk spills, kids’ painting and crafting mishaps (just wait until your kids mix glue, glitter and water colors together), we recommend stain-proof rugs to withstand with these incidents.

2. With babies and toddlers, we recommend a washable rug to make clean-up easier after throw-ups, spills and potty accidents.

3. For toddlers who stumble a lot and fall down, choose rugs that will help cushion falls and bumps. Make sure the rug is of medium thickness or more for decent cushioning.

4. Generally go for washable rugs which can be easily washed with soap and water or put in the washing machine.

5. For areas where kids might play with crayons, paints, play-dough, tea sets or other things which could leave a mess, we again recommend an easy to clean, stain-proof rug.

6. For the bathroom, go for a rug which absorbs water to keep kids from slipping or tripping. Note: use a rug pad or buy a rug with an anti-skid backing.

7. Today most of your kids’ favorite characters from books, movies, TV and videos are available for play areas. Such rugs are great for a kid’s bedroom.

8. Also for the bathroom, a mold & mildew resistant rug is a great way to lessen the time you spend cleaning the bathroom.

We hope you find the best rugs for your home. A great rug will keep you smiling. At Homespice, everyone here with kids uses Ultra Durable rugs as they are stain-proof, washable, mold & mildew resistant with a sturdy, cushiony thickness.
