Modern kid’s bedrooms are so much more than places where they go to sleep in their tiny bunk beds. Today, kids can get actual small havens where they can relax, learn and follow their interests. But how can you design a good bedroom without any previous experience? Here are some tips that will guarantee your kid will end up with a bedroom of their dreams. 

Opt for wallpaper

All kids change their minds super-fast: they might be into blue today, into pink next year and into black in two years. In order to avoid repainting their room every year (paint is messy and contains a lot of toxins) you can opt for practical wallpapers. Modern wallpaper comes in all designs, patterns and colors imaginable, so you can completely customize your kid’s room. The best part? Once they get tired of the design, you can just tear the wallpaper down and replace them with something new. 

Choose open shelves

Kids are very proud of their possessions, especially when it comes to cool toys, cute dolls and sports trophies. So, don’t hide these prized items in cabinets and toy chests! Instead, install some open shelving and allow your kids to display their treasures. This type of storage will also keep everything at arm’s reach at all times and there will be no forgotten toys at the bottom of the toy box. 

Include their interests

You might be dreaming of a modern Scandinavian coastal bedroom for your kid, but your little one probably has different plans. Make sure to include their interests in the design if you want to create a bedroom that will actually be used by your kids. For instance, if you have a really girly girl in the family, check out some kid vanities and fill them with kid-friendly makeup. If you don’t know where to start shopping, check out this Borncute guide and look into some reviews and recommendations. On the other hand, athletic boys and girls will love some sporting gear and memorabilia. No matter what they love, make sure it finds a spot in their room. 

Choose the right flooring

Young kids love to roll around on the floor, use it for reading and drawing and even take a nap on the ground. For all these reasons, you need to provide your child with warm and soft flooring. There are great rugs that can be washed and vacuumed easily and provide so much softness, comfort and beauty. 

Add some study space

Even if your kids are still too young for school, time flies and they will start first grade before you even know. Actually, no matter how old your kids are, they need quiet, comfortable and ergonomic space where they can read, draw, color and do homework. Luckily, a good study space doesn’t require a lot of space: a small desk with a quality chair and a good light source plus some storage are all a child needs. 

Let kids made some decisions

No matter how chaotic your little ones are, they can actually make some great choices that will help everyone be more satisfied with the design outcome. If you don’t want to let them pick the bed (you know they will choose something cute but totally impractical) you can allow them to choose between polka dot and striped bedding, red or blue carpets and canvas or wicker laundry baskets. This will make kids feel super proud and grownup and it will cost you absolutely nothing. 

 If you let your kids make a few décor decisions while you handle the technical parts, you’ll design a bedroom that will be their little private piece of heaven. A well-designed kid’s bedroom will grow with your child and always stay their favorite place in the world.
