Tips για τη Διακόσμηση και Οργάνωση του Δωματίου του Παιδιού σας

Ok, you have made up your mind! Your little one needs a brand new environment to spur his/her creativity, hunger for knowledge and imagination, and furnishing it based on a certain theme seems a great idea! Besides, there are so many fantastic theme options: Tree Houses, Pirate ships, Medieval Castles or Princess Palaces – all so bright and wonderfully designed that pose a single challenge! How on earth can a mom choose the which one is best for her little one?  

Well, we can lay a hand! Check out some great tips on choosing the theme that best suits you and the little ruler of your heart.  

Let’s Start with the Basics

• Specify your BudgetDeciding on your budget is, obviously, a move that will simplify things and cut down some options. Still, you will have to take into account some important factors before coming up with a number. For instance, certain themes feature robust construction and high-quality materials that can last for several years without falling apart – guaranteeing minimal maintenance, repair or replacement expenses in the future.Another important factor is each theme’s adjustability. Numerous themed rooms are tailored to a certain age so “tightly” that when the child outgrows them, they are doomed to be replaced. On the other hand, other themes may seem a bit pricier, but because they are designed to adjust to the child’s growth and remain fresh, they continuously develop, but never need to be replaced
• Get your Child Involved!Second, you must get your little one involved in the whole procedure. Besides being fun and offering you some great memories and experiences with your kid, working together to create his/her dream room will guarantee a pleasing result for both of you that will surely last longer. Whatever the case, try to remember that it is your child’s “dream” space, not yours! So, take his/her views and opinions into serious account.  

Choose Furniture that grow with your Children

Apparently, the next thing you should consider is the child’s age. Why is this important? Well, choosing a theme for a nursery, for example, sets different priorities to picking one for an older child. Why?

First of all, setting up a nursery means that all decisions will have to be made by you – there will be no considerable help from your little one. Thus, bear in mind that as the child grows and develops his/her own sense of taste, you will have to be able to modify some elements in the room. Hence, avoid exaggerations and “strokes” that will be difficult to adjust later (should the need arises).

If your child is already capable of stating his/her favorite colors, heroes, bedtime stories, etc. things are much easier and allow you some more “bold” choices, since you know your child will love them! 

Take it Easy with the Murals…

Murals can transform a kid’s bedroom and bring out all sorts of inspiring emotions and pleasant moods. On the other hand, they are a bit difficult to remove and therefore their selection calls for careful thought.

The best way to move here is to choose murals that can quickly adapt to the child’s mental and emotional development. For instance, a colorful landscape can be easily used as a backdrop of a haunted forest, and then that of a knight’s castle, and finally serve as a lovely inspiring décor during his high-school exams.   

Some Final Thoughts…

Creating your child’s themed room, the environment he or she will grow in, sheltering his/her dreams and ambitions, keeping away his/her fears and shaping his/her future is going to be one of the most cherished memories of your life. So, stress, anxiety and bitter “disagreements” with the “tenant” are strictly forbidden! Just join forces, have fun and everything is going to be fine!
