Inexpensive ways to heat a room with Hardwood Flooring?
I live in an apartment and the bedrooms have hardwood flooring. My bedroom is not too bad but my son's is cold. Besides adding curtains and an area rug, are there any other ways to help retain heat.

You can try to adjust the heat registers. Try opening your sons all the way, and partially closing others throughout the apartment. If you have rooms you seldom use, try closing them about 75%-80%. Depending on the age of the complex, you may have single pane glass in the windows. That's where you would be losing your heat. Short of blocking the window over with some foam product, there's not much more you can do. If it is too bad, may consider a small space heater. You may find it uses more electric then just raising the heat and closing the heat registers some. You'd have to monitor your electric bill. You need to also let the management know, it could be a heat balancing issue with the heating unit.

It relies if you're taking your sneakers off on the door or no longer relatively... I recognize that can sound foolish however leaving sneakers on the door might make so much much less of a large number to begin off with. If that's the case. I love utilising the Swiffer on my hardwood flooring. Also, there are digital brooms that you'll choose up for $30-$50 at any retailer like Target, Sears, Walmart and so forth. They're on the whole cordless and rechargeable with a plugin and they are gentle weight and rapid to make use of. They regularly have each a hardwood and carpet mode. It choices up all of the dust/dirt/crumbs/fur and places it in somewhat compartment that is handy to drain. Worth testing.
