Just about everything is rough on floorcovering. One of the toughest is children. Yep your kids are playing hell on your floors.
So what type of floor should you get for a child to live on.

Well carpet is the most popular with families especially with new babies. Gives them a soft landing when they fall. There will be some falling, especially when they are learning to walk.
If your worried about the messes they are going to make. Then a vinyl, maybe a laminate, this will be a little harder on their Landings but every time they spill something it will be easier to clean up.
Durability your main concern? Well hardwood, maybe tile, some laminates,
I don't recommend the "pressed cardboard" types of laminate. A couple of spills in the same place will cause it to swell and look like crap.
I think a good snap together wood type of floor with rugs for them to hang out on iz good for kids.
But me personally,, I would probably do carpet with a good pad til they can walk good, then a good snap together wood.of hardwood if I could afford it.
