Age appropriateness is one of the considerations in decorating and evaluating safety concerns in a home. Some age considerations include making things safe, especially for the very young or the very old, or accessible, for instance a child can help set the table if the items that go on the table are placed within reach. Lowering the height of a bed can reduce dangerous falls for the elderly. And some aids can help with elders dealing with forgetfulness or dementia. For instance a black floor is perceived by some Alzheimer's patients as a hole in the ground and can keep them from wandering out of a safe area.
