Art For Kids Room
Kids’ rooms are fun to decorate. Keep kids’ rooms simple, washable, and safe. Plan for the floor coverings, walls, furnishings, and fabrics to be kid friendly.
Decorating a kids’ room begins with floor coverings, which should be pleasant for kids who spend time playing on the floor. Carpet tiles are a great alternative to traditional wall-to-wall carpeting, since single tiles can be replaced if stained or damaged. Carpet tile can also be installed by the average handy homeowner without professional equipment. Other options include laminate flooring or wood-look vinyl. Provide a large washable rug for the play area, making sure the rug has a no-slip backing for safety.
Walls can be decorated with a washable satin finish paint rather than flat latex. Chalkboard paint can provide a wall for artistic play. Cork as a wall covering also provides bulletin board space for artwork and posters. Another good choice is a washable vinyl wall covering. Wood paneling is also sturdy and attractive for kids’ rooms and can be used in combination with paint or other wall coverings.
