When you design rooms for your children, you want to make them to feel comfortable and happy. At the same time, kids tend to go through phases and change their interests frequently, so you don’t want to get stuck with furniture or an interior painting scheme that no longer reflects your child’s personality. Here is a helpful guide on how to design rooms that will grow with your children.

3 Children’s Room Design Tips

1. Get Multipurpose Furniture 

When you buy furniture for a kid’s room, think long-term. You want pieces that can serve multiple functions over time. For instance, a changing table for a baby may convert to a desk when your child starts kindergarten. You can also never have enough storage for toys, art supplies, books, and games, so select beds with built-in drawers beneath them.

2. Invest In Adult Furniture 

Your kids will grow into adult-sized beds, dressers, nightstands, and shelves over time. Twin, full, and daybeds tend to be the most kid-friendly. Put stepping stools in front of bookshelves, and get full-sized dressers and nightstands that are still short enough for kids to access. 

3. Choose a Neutral Wall Color

If you let your kids choose the wall color, they’ll likely pick bold shades that they’ll grow out of quickly. Select neutral colors, such as light gray, cream, or taupe, for interior painting instead. Your child can then use temporary accents like removable wallpaper, stickers, or wall tattoos in their favorite colors and motifs.

When you have a neutral color scheme and long-lasting furniture, simply adjust the room with new bed sheets, throw pillows, area rugs, and wall hangings that match your child’s changing interests.
