Decorating the walls in a child's room is an important moment when creating an interior.

A well-chosen design will help the child feel comfortable and cozy in his room.

When choosing the design of the walls in a child’s room, the first thing to consider is the child’s age and interests, says Yulia Tychino .

For children under 3, it is better to choose neutral light colors - beige, soft green, blue. Bright colors can irritate immature vision. Pictures and patterns should also be as simple and laconic as possible.

For older children, you can use brighter colors and interesting prints. Wallpaper in the form of favorite cartoon characters, space, or a city will be an excellent option. Such wallpaper not only pleases the child's eye, but also develops imagination.

In addition to wallpaper, various vinyl stickers are suitable for decorating walls. They can be placed on the entire wall or as separate elements - clouds, trees, flowers, animals.

Vinyl stickers have a number of advantages - they are easy to clean, do not fade in the sun, and at the same time create a bright and memorable decor.

Another common option is drawings and inscriptions with paints or felt-tip pens. The main thing here is to give free rein to the child's imagination, let the child show his creative abilities.

You can draw the outline of the future drawing in advance, and let the child paint inside the outline. This option is suitable for children from 5 years old.

An original solution would be to decorate the walls using decoupage technique. Various pictures cut out from old magazines will harmoniously fit into the interior of the nursery. With the help of decoupage, you can make the walls truly unique and inimitable. The main thing is to ensure that the images are age-appropriate and safe for the child.

Another popular way of decoration is photo wallpaper. There are a huge number of options for photo wallpaper for children - landscapes, space, underwater world, forest.

Photo wallpaper creates the illusion of space, visually expanding a small room. For small children, it is better to choose calm landscapes, and for older children, you can use more dynamic and bright images.

Don't forget about decorative elements that can be placed on the walls of the children's room.

These can be shelves, framed paintings, photo frames, wall toys, garlands, inscriptions with the child's name. Such elements will make the room more cozy and personalized.

The main thing when decorating walls is to take into account the child's age, his interests and not to overdo it with bright colors and images. It is also worth regularly updating the decor as the baby grows up.

And of course, it is desirable to involve the child himself in the design of the room - let him also show his imagination and express his preferences. Then the nursery will become a truly native and beloved place for him.
