Interior design is always fun to do, but since it involves making your home nice, some people rein in their creativity in order to keep their space looking appealing, professional, and most of all, adult. However, when it comes to kid’s rooms, we can go to the opposite end of the decorating spectrum. Anything crazy and colorful is encouraged. Why? Because parents- rookie or veteran- want to create a space for their children that will make their imagination come alive.

Kids Room Decoration Ideas

A space that looks like the jungle when the stars come out at night. A space we still secretly yearn for. So, how does one accomplish this? Well, I’m glad you asked. Here is a list of inventive kids room DIY ideas that will blow your mind, and make you wish you were a kid all over again.

“Brighten” the Kids Room World with these Amazing Decoration Designs

1. A Child-Sized Dream Home

You know those playhouses we had outside when we were kids? Well, now you can have it inside! Say goodbye to the cliche Fisher-Price extra large plastic look, design the little house any way you want without having to worry if it will get ruined when wet.

2. Climbing New Heights

These are the ultimate addition to any child’s bedroom. In the two bedrooms I lived in growing up, both had loft beds and it was awesome. Not only do you feel taller and more powerful, but the storage underneath is a priceless commodity. When it comes to lofts, the best part is that you can design them any way you want!

3.  Bring the Outdoors Inside

This idea just plain magical and will have kids and adults staring in awe. Kids get to have a real tree house, only inside, so no muddy footprints or icky bugs! This amazing mural realism idea is delightful. I think the swing coming down from the tree “limb” is the cherry on top.

4. Park Fun All Day Every Day

Kids have a lot of energy sometimes; ok, most of the time. It can be easier to handle when you can toss them outside and tell them to go play. But if it’s raining or you live in an apartment, your options are much more limited. Instead of ripping your hair out, grab some power tools instead and build them a mini indoor jungle gym where they can (hopefully) exhaust themselves to your heart’s content.

When I was a kid in the 90’s, I had some glow in the dark star stickers that I stuck to my ceiling. I loved looking at them at night, but sadly after a few years they stopped working. Now, in the 21st century, you can give your kids something you never had; fiber optics. These amazing little lights will turn any ordinary room into a magical place when the lights go out.

I feel like pillows an essential to any space that will harbor children for the simple fact that it will protect them should they fall. Which is kind of a lot. I’ve seen many cool designs: clouds, moons, unicorns, even balloon animal pillows.

But this is the first time I have come across giant rock pillows, and due to their size and different shapes, these are definitely my favorite; not just for playing with, but for sleeping on as well.

12. In a Galaxy Far, Far, Away

A bed from a galaxy far, far away.:

Naptime and bedtime are the two hardest times for kids and their parents. When you have a fun bed though, that could seriously change things. For example, now that Star Wars is part of the Disney franchise, what fan wouldn’t want this amazing bed?

Now your kids will race to naptime so they can dream about defeating Darth Vader.

13. Chair Decorations: Dress Up the Dresser

When it comes to children, anything plain can be made into something fun and adorable. This bunny chair is no different. Sure you could leave it as a chair and your child would use it, but where’s the fun in that? Make simple objects like chairs and desks into animals or whatever your childlike creativity can muster up.

These are the perfect idea for many different things. Play tents have grown super popular, and with good reason. As fun as forts are to build, they eventually always have to come down. But not this one! This closed in space can serve as a permanent fort, reading nook, or tea party room.

15. Magnets: This Trend’s Sure to Stick!

Earlier I mentioned how great a chalkboard wall would be. Something that is equally as fantastic is an entire magnet wall. Not only can kids use it to learn, as pictured here, but when they grow up, it can be used instead of a corkboard wall. Never worry about your kids losing sharp push pins again. Give them some neat magnets instead.
