Child's room is different from adults', so we must take different approach to decorate it. For kids, their bedroom is where they play games, read, listen to music, day-dream, or just go to be alone sometimes. So use these strategies to help create a space that will make you both happy:
First, you should know your children's tastes, such as what activities and fantasies he or she enjoys; what their favorite color is; and what's unique about their personality that a theme could be built around.
Second, make your children involved. Let them have a right to say about colors, fabrics, and how they want to display their collectibles.
Third, make the room multipurpose. Since children use their room for many activities besides sleeping, it should have several different zones, such as a play area, reading area, and entertainment area.
Fourth, select the right lights. A child's room should include both task lighting for homework and reading, and soothing light for quieter times. A nightlight is also important.
Then, in order to add color and texture to the room, you can use the wallpaper. You can apply whimsical borders along the top edges of the walls, and clouds or stars on the ceiling. Make sure walls are washable, so if you are using paint, choose a semi-gloss or gloss finish. Kids love bright colors, but you should limit any strong color to only one wall.
At last, choose a theme for the room. Here are just a few: firehouse fun room, starry night, angels, rainbows, baseball, a bedroom for a princess, underwater scenery, outer space, race cars, airplanes, trains etc.
Decorating with your child offers a great opportunity to display your playful side, while doing some memorable family bonding, so have fun with it!
