Your kids can help you when it comes to decorating. They can pick colors and themes, and help prep the room and place the décor. Think of how much they will enjoy having a hand in helping and in deciding how their space will look!
Painting
Colors are a huge determining factor when decorating. Turn to your child for help. What colors do they love? What colors do they dislike? Why?
When choosing more than one color, you can choose different hues of the same color, choose complimentary colors that are across from each other on the color wheel for a high contrast look, or choose colors on the same side of the color wheel such as green, blue and purple to create a harmonious color palette.
If they have certain interests, it can point to certain colors. A ballerina might like pink, and a kid that loves being outside could like green. Most children will want to be surrounded by something they like to do. You can check out Shop by Theme to get inspired.
Another paint option is a mural, we have a large selection of children’s Mural Painting Kits that you can paint together using paint-by-number pattern. If you are doing a mural consider that the base paint of the room should work with the colors in the mural and even be the background color.
Home improvement stores now sell paint directed towards children, such as Disney paint. Picking swatches together and testing a few samples on the wall can be lots of fun for your child. Painting on the wall will be fun since it is usually off limits!
Once you’ve chosen a color, they can help you move things out of their room, and lay out the tarp or paper. If they are older, they can also help tape off the windows, baseboards (Great, since they’re closer to the floor!), and door jams. Once everything is covered, give them a small paintbrush and a low area to work on. The little artist will feel helpful and you’ll probably have some great photo opportunities!
Decorating
It will be fun to help you decorate the room, too. Give them a couple of choices to make about new accessories and furniture. You may want to do the research first and then let them pick from a couple that you like. If you have the option for several furniture arrangements, let them weigh in on things like if they would like their bed close to the window or as far away as possible. I would get frightened at night sometimes, so being far from the window was a good thing.
Choosing accessories like curtains, pillows, art, and lighting can be fun to do together, too. Our Wall Stickers are fun to choose and to apply. Your child can help pick the location of your stickers and even help place them. Think about using them in unexpected places such as on furniture, doors, or even in the closet or toy chest. If you want an even bigger impact, check out our Wall Sticker Murals.
Letting your kids in on the fun will surely make the experience more fun for everyone. Remember that they’re only a kid for so long and that the experience of helping will make the space their own.
