Children Room furnishings

 Children Room furnishings

Decorating children’s room is different from decorating an adult's bedroom.  While adults extend their activities to several rooms in the house, normally, children will try to confine their activities into their single room. To a child, his room is not only the  centre for indoor games, but also for other activities such as reading, listening  to music, displaying prized possessions.

The most important aspect to be kept in mind while furnishing a child's room is that the room should facilitate your child's personality development and while so furnishing the children room, we have to take into consideration the age of the children and their areas of interest.  The décor of children room should be flexible enough to accommodate the changing tastes and needs of the children.


Plan to have the child's room just adjacent to the parents' room, preferably with a connecting door in between. Just knowing that he/she can just walk in and be with his/her parents can be a big comfort for both.

Here are some specific areas which can be considered while designing the children room to make it multi-functional:


Play areas for younger children may include an arts & crafts center. Most children love to exhibit their talent by way of drawing  and by  coloring them.  Therefore, providing a comfortable space for working on drawings, arts and crafts would be an encouraging factor for the children.  Similarly, you may hang a chalkboard which can be used for drawing pictures and for teaching purposes.


Provide a quiet and comfortable space that will entice the children to inculcate the habit of reading. If you have the space for a comfy chair, perfect. If not, an over-stuffed floor pillow or two would suffice. Needless to say, that the children room should have good ventilation and lighting.


This becomes more important as children get older and older. They would like to spend time in their room with friends. Depending on their age, a small entertainment unit which  includes a computer,  CD Player, carom board, chess board,  fiction books etc. is a must.
