[quote=Anonymous]There are two types of humidifiers.  Warm mist humidifiers can be put on the floor as the warmer mist will not immediately sink to the ground and will generally spread further before sinking to the ground and the moisture will be absorbed into the air before it reaches the ground .  Cool mist humidifiers should not be put on the floor as the cool mist will sink more quickly and some will be absorbed by the carpet before it is absorbed by the air thereby making your carpet damp.  Cool mist humidifiers should be raised at the table height or above.  Then as the mist comes out and sinks, the moisture is absorbed into the air before it reaches the ground.

Most cool mist humidifiers have warnings not to put low to the ground and recommend on desks, tables, nightstands.  If you can't put it up on the dresser and don't have a nightstand or similar in the kid's room, then get a tray table or similar and put it in the room.  It should generally be at least 2 feet above the ground for a cool mist humidifier.[/quote]
