How To Create A Much-Loved Kids Bedroom

Battling to get the kids to sleep at bedtime and do their homework are daily headaches for parents. Where they want to be is sprawled out on the sofa watching TV. But their bedrooms can be so much more than just a place they’re trying to avoid. There are plenty of things you can do to bring the fun back into the kids rooms. Here are just a few ideas to help inspire your kid’s bedroom makeover today:

Colors

It is well known that bright colors appeal to kids. But colorful patterns or pictures can also help them enjoy the bedroom even more. If you want your child to love his room, you need to encourage them to help design it. Pick a wall covering, decal or paint that they love. You can find some choices at websites like roommatesdecor.com It will look good, and it will help them feel like the room is truly theirs. You don’t have to paint every wall in this color. The others can be more neutral, especially if there will be furniture on that side of the room.

Bed

If the bed is fun, your battle days at bedroom could be well and truly over! There are thousands of great bed designs out there. You can pick one with a tunnel. Perhaps a playhouse underneath will be fun? What about a slide to the floor from the top bunk? Check out websites like Cuckooland.com to see what kind of bed will suit your child. They may want to get involved in the selection process! Don’t forget to choose some fun bedding. Favorite TV characters can be very popular design choices.

Desk

Kids get a lot of homework from their schools. They need somewhere quiet and comfortable to tackle the challenges of their assignments. Every good kid’s room should have a sturdy desk with a desk lamp to illuminate the workspace. You might want one with a number of drawers for pens, paper, and crafting materials. You may also want a bookshelf and space for their school books to sit. The better the storage solutions in a child’s room, the less cluttered the space will be. This can help your child to focus and feel less frustrated when the work is tough.

Toys

You may prefer the kids keep their toys in their playroom. But having some quiet time alone with their favorite things is an important activity for developing children. A good bedtime routine will limit the play enough to avoid too many late nights. Having a place for the toys to be put away out of sight can also encourage your child to roll over and go to sleep when it’s time. Creativity is inspired by the play, so do try to encourage a little fun even if it is nearly time to sleep.

A child’s room is personal to them. It may reflect their tastes as well as their personality. It needs to feel safe and secure, as well as a source of happy memories for them. It can be difficult to balance fun with the need for a good night of sleep, though.
