A Child's Bedroom Is So Much More

And you thought all you needed in a child's bedroom was a fresh coat of paint and new furniture. How wrong are we.

Did you know that a child's bedroom nurtures your child on every level - from promoting their imagination to emotional growth to a sense of self and independence.

As adults we have had years to become the people we are and showcase that in our surroundings, for example your Home ie Living Room, Bedroom, Home Office and even your Garage.

A child's bedroom is a great place to start nurturing their interests and watch them grow and shine.

When decorating your child's bedroom start with choosing a theme and colour. From here you can venture in choosing decor items ie Astronaut Wallpaper, Curtains and Bedwear (but not all three) Add touches of, do not saturate the space. You don't want to clutter the room as this will overwhelm the room and child. You want their bedroom to be a sanctuary to also help them to relax and sleep.

When choosing a paint colour consider soft muted tones as they can be soothing and serene. Having an off white may feel stark but it is a wonderful palette to add your decor to. However you will need to balance with warmer and brighter tones in decor items like Bedwear, Rugs, Pictures, Wallpaper and Window Dressings. Young children often associate bright colours with happiness.

If your child wants to be involved, and many do, this is a wonderful opportunity for a shared project. You will have the chance to learn more about what your child likes and doesn't like. And also introduce more of their interests and hobbies into the room.

With being involved in decorating their bedroom they may also be more proactive in keeping their room tidy, as they will want to claim their own space to retreat to for quiet times.

Of course keeping in mind as your child grows older consider a study nook. It's not all about sleep and play and we are still trying to introduce routine and manage their busy schedules.

Over time your child's bedroom decor can change with your child. Their interests and taste will evolve and so will their bedroom. Give them room to grow and flourish.
