As a parent, you might not think much about the décor of the children’s room but just remember the time you were a child. The room is an entire cosmos for a kid, so everything from the color of the walls to the furniture needs to stimulate the child’s creative side.
If you design the nursery with the utmost care, then you should make the effort to beautify the children’s room as they grow up. If you apply the following 7 interior design tips, you will create an amazing bedroom for your kids that they’ll spend hours playing in.
Every teacher will tell you that children are amazed by blackboards. It is as if some magic power draws them toward the board as children adore picking up a piece of chalk or a marker to draw on it.
You can make
good use of this drive-in children by hanging up their very own drawing board
on one of the walls in the bedroom.
Not only will the kids get a canvas to express their artistic side but you will effectively prevent them from drawing on other walls in the house, which is something they also, enjoy a lot.
2) Wall Decals
Apart from the
drawing board, you can get at any office supplies store, the walls should be
adorned with colorful decals. Once upon a time, these decals featured Mickey
Mouse or Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, while today their
heroes are Frozen characters or the Avengers.
Luckily, decals can be designed online and shipped to your home address so you can surprise your children with their favorite superheroes. These decals can cover an entire wall or they can be small in size but span all fours wall, such as a gulp of swallows “flying” across the entire room.

3) Playing With Colors
When it comes to
the walls, their color is the last order of business you need to take care of.
Firstly, the color of the walls in the children’s bedroom should differ from
the rest of the house or apartment. The hues have to be light: blue, green,
orange, yellow, etc. Furthermore, the color of the ceiling should be dark and
differ from the rest of the room to create a contrast.
Moving on from
the walls, the color of the furniture should also be cheerful, sort to say.
Order beds, tables, and cupboards that are colorful so the effect of the walls
is amplified. Ideally, you can ask the child what their favorite color is and
create a themed room.

4) Bed Blankets and Sheets
The focal point of the bedroom is the bed, of course. That’s why you should invest extra effort (and money) to make the bed as colorful and comfortable as possible. Like with wall decals, it is possible to order kids blankets online, thus ensuring you get the linen sheets your child will like. You might be the one paying for the bedroom’s overhaul but children are the end-user that just like the product, to put it in economic terms. Whatever color pattern you decide on, make sure the blankets, sheets, and pillows are super soft.
5) The Importance of a Toy Box
Parents are
constantly telling off children for toys that are left on the floor of the
bedroom once playtime is over. However, it might not be entirely your child’s
fault; especially if you haven’t provided them with a toy box.
This box doesn’t have to be a dull-looking crate, as you can decorate it together with your kid. This will be a great bonding activity and the child will actually want to lift the lid of the box to put the toys away.
6) A Corner for Collectibles
Children are curious by nature and you should do your best to
stimulate this love for knowledge. Whether they enjoy collecting toys, napkins,
or drawings, you should create a separate corner in the room where their
collectibles would be displayed.
If your child likes to paint, then this corner would have cork-board for hanging their artwork. If they are into toys or magazines, then build a special shelf for storing and displaying such collectibles.

The Next Level Growth Chart
We all like to
record how much our kids have grown during the past months or year but growth
charts are an old-fashioned way of doing this. A more modern way to do this and
have fun in the process is to use water-based paint to mark their height on the
wall.
What is more,
you can use this paint to record the shape and size of their hands and feet.
Because of the paint’s non-toxic properties, it will be easy to remove later
on.
Designing and decorating a children’s bedroom is no easy task, as interior designers specialize in children’s rooms.
