4 Childproof Kitchen Countertop Materials



Pick the right countertop and not only will you have a quality material to use when you prep food, you’ll also have a component that can help you improve your home’s overall value. However, if you have children, you have more things to consider. Juice spills and art projects can easily affect a countertop. Here are a few child-friendly countertop materials to consider for your kitchen.

  1. Laminate. Laminate is a popular material that works for both kitchen and bathroom counters. It is affordable, durable and comes in a wide range of color and pattern options. When you use it in your kitchen, you don’t have to worry about your child damaging the material as you can easily clean up with mild soap and a cloth or sponge. Laminate has a non-porous surface that won’t harbor bacteria or viruses. It also won’t stain easily compared to other counter materials.
  2. Marble. On the other hand, marble countertops can also be considered child-friendly. While marble is highly porous and can easily be stained, proper sealing will prevent this issue from occurring. To install a marble countertop in your kitchen, turn to the kitchen remodel experts at DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Reno for assistance.
  3. Granite. If you don’t mind spending a little extra on your countertops, then consider using granite. As long as you properly seal your granite counter, stains, heat and household chemicals won’t pose a threat to the material. You can confidently invest in granite countertops without having to worry about problems.
  4. Engineered stone. One of the best choices in countertop materials for homeowners who have children is engineered stone. This is because the material is non-porous and extremely durable, allowing it to withstand scratches and chips from heavy wear and tear. Apart from that, engineered stone also comes in various colors and textures that lets it mimic the appearance of other materials. Best of all, you can easily maintain engineered stone countertops with mild soap and warm water, without having to reseal it periodically.
