Tips for Painting Your Kid’s Room!

Children’s room is a space which plays a massive role in their development. Hence, Kid’s bedrooms should be thoughtfully painted. There are numerous creative ways to decorate a kid’s room. In fact, you can make it the best place for your child to feel joy and comfort. Children themselves are an inspiration for this work.

However, to make this room their favourite place in the house, it is essential to get some professional assistance. Read ahead to find out decorative tips for painting the kid’s room.

Decide a Theme

Before beginning the paintwork, decide a theme around which the furniture and paint will revolve. Seek advice from your junior one and plan the interior décor of your child’s room, keeping his/her interests in mind. Kids have special interests in fictional characters, movies, sports, arts, or activities, which can be used to develop a theme for their room. This will help you customize the place, suiting their personality.

You can find creative ideas in children’s magazines, their storybooks, or the design of their toys. You can also go for scenic themes such as forests or paradise that involve the usage of bright, happy shades. Take advantage of stencils to obtain the patterns you are looking for.

Having the theme in mind makes it easy to choose colors for the bedroom.

Wall Color Selection

While painting a kid’s room, you can go for all shades – except the extraordinarily dull and extreme bright ones. Also, according to psychology, red color disturbs the child’s psyche. Additionally, classic opinions like Pink for girls and blue for boys are no more entertained. You want color shades that last long from their tiny twos to their terrible teens. So, here are the most trending colors to use for painting your kid’s room:

• Yellow

This color is full of brightness and cheer. And being vivacious, it is sure to fill the room with energy (probably to do the homework) and illuminate positivity within the child. All its shades – right from the pale yellow to the sunny yellow shade are known to invoke a range of happy emotions.

• Aqua

This color provides freshness and coolness. Aqua blue paint makes the room look spacious. This shade is the most versatile of all blues to paint a kid’s room, as it goes well with most of the colors. Aqua provides the tranquillity they need (to go to bed on time) after draining energies outside at school or kindergarten.

• Green

The natural color green gives hope. Being a harmonious color, it is suitable for any temperament. This color is known to invoke a sense of calmness. Good self-esteem is often associated with the color green. Make sure you give a balance of different shades of green to the walls; otherwise, it may result in green yearning.

• Purple (precisely, Lilac)

Lilac imparts a sense of magic in the room. Growing children do respond to this color positively. The best part of this bright color is that even after the kid grows up to be a teenager, you do not have to change it. Purples, especially Lilac shades, are so sophisticated that they look equally amazing with a different set of furniture.

• Orange

This color is known to enhance creativity. Psychologically, orange is a color that imparts joy and enthusiasm. It also provides warmth. Orange is the color of strength and endurance too. Make sure to harmonize it with subtle contrasts to avoid extra illumination of the room.

It is also seen that most parents consider a multicoloured mosaic wall for their kid’s room. That indeed is a great idea to invoke a plethora of vibes at the same time. But it works only if you choose the right shades that do not affect the kid’s psyche negatively.

Paint Selection

When painting your child’s room, you want to refrain from anything that can be harmful to them. Select a quality paint that does not have a strong odour. For the perfect finish, you also want proper air permeability of the coating. Use Water dispersive or Acrylic paints that are easy to clean and are odourless.

Ecological paints are considered the best for colouring kid’s room because they do not contain any harmful substances in them- they are eco friendly and safe. Kid’s rooms should not be painted with oil or alkyd enamel paints. Hence, the colours to define a kid’s room should be washable, breathable, water resisting, hypoallergenic, and economical interior paints.

Within those four walls is where your child will live- make sure the print quality is accurate for their ease and comfort!

Patterns and Wall Décor

‘Children’ is what this blog broadly focuses on! Their rooms cannot be left bland and boring with plain walls and no patterns or decoration on them. Kids love shapes! Go for drawing circles, stripes, stars, triangles, rhombuses, etc. on the walls. After the background color is painted and dried, use darker or contrasting shades to make these patterns. Usage of paint tape may be required during the process.

You can also use stencils for unique patterns on your kid’s wall. If you are not good at drawings, stencils make it effortless yet impactful.

If you’ve run out of paint or do not wish to apply extra paint on the walls, use stickers. Stickers are the best and the easiest way to make the boring walls look compelling to a kid. Labels, like stencils, come in a wide variety. You can choose from fictional characters to different shapes, to organisms like butterflies or birds, and a lot more. The best part about stickers as decoration is that they are easily applicable and removable. Therefore, the child can remove and apply labels according to his growing age!
