Bathroom Decor Ideas for Your Kids

• Pattern Play

Nothing can look more interesting for kids than beautiful and colourful patterns, textures, and finishes in their bathrooms. With bold and elegant patterns, you can give your kid’s shower area an interesting touch that your kid will surely love. You can infuse geometric, floral, chevron, and many other pretty patterns to make your kid’s showering experience enjoyable. 

Even though you get small wall space to create playful patterned designs, you can use beautiful wall tiles, like GFT SPH Frames Pink HL and BHF Sandy Triangle Grey HL FT, to elevate the look of the bathroom for your kid. Also, you may consider laying matte and anti-skid bathroom floor tiles, like HFM Anti-Skid Midtown Beige DK and HFM Anti-Skid Cemento Grey DK, to prevent slipping and accidents. 

• Add a Pop of Unexpected Colour

Kids and colours go hand-in-hand. So, it won’t be a bad idea to infuse colours to dedicate the space solely to your kids. Plus, it will provide an amazing differentiating factor compared to their adult counterparts. You can simply go for the colours your kids like to provide an inviting feel to them. 

Moreover, you can consider adding an unexpected pop of colours by infusing a two-tone effect, different finishes, and even fixtures that complement the entire look. For example, you can lay beautiful and durable patterned tiles, like HFM Anti-Skid EC Sea water, in the bottom part and on the top part of the walls. Also, elevate the shower space with patterned or decorative tiles. 

• Colourful Bathroom Accessories

Add colourful accessories like a funky bath mat and vibrant towels to create a neutral room-like feel where they remain playful and like taking showers or doing their morning deeds. A red or blue towel and an easily accessible storage cabinet are great elements that you can add to your kid’s bathroom. 

Further, if you stick to the choice of white or neutral colour bathroom decor for your kid, you can install items like an emerald green sink to add an interesting factor to the decor. Or, you can just opt for easy and affordable items that your kid will like. 

• Geometric Bathroom Wall Design 

A small kid’s bathroom is an opportunity to showcase bold and beautiful patterns. Your kids will love it even more if the walls have the geometrical shapes that you read about in their books. No matter how limited wall space you have to design, you can choose tiles with rectangles, squares, rhombuses, circles, and hexagons to entice your kids to learn the shapes while having stunning bathroom decor. 

For example, you can go for light-coloured hexagonal patterned tiles, like ODH Hexagon Multi Hl, to infuse a relaxing and calming vibe in the bathroom. To elevate the bathroom decor further, you can add quirky mirrors and silver sconces and make the wall decor stand out.

Besides that, you can also add items like towels and quirky toothbrushes – also in the likeness of their favourite characters. Your little kid will love to visit the bathroom often for healthy needs.

• Allow Room to Grow 

While looking for ideas for your kid’s bathroom, select a timeless fitting that can last for a long time, and witness your kid grow. For example, if your children are teenagers and will soon step into adulthood, it is better to go for an aesthetic appeal rather than a Tom-and-Jerry look. 

However, you can stick to your plan to get the modern bathroom look by infusing a creative tile design for the walls. Check out GFT BDF Rustic Triangle Coffee! Besides that, you can add sumptuous curtains, towels, and other bathroom accessories. You can easily change these items as they grow older, matching their vibes.

Another way you can add richness to the space is by creating a beautiful accent backsplash. There are thousands of beautiful tile options available for bathroom backsplashes that you can consider, like ODG Mahogany Wood Brown. Also, you can pair the accent wall design with a neutral marble countertop to get an eclectic feel and elegant floor tiles.

• Bring Patterns to the Floor 

Patterns can never fail to get the attention of kids. Be it on walls or floors, they always enjoy the playful vibe that patterns offer. So, now, you can consider bringing patterns to the floor.

Consider Adding Some Extra Items in Your Kid’s Bathroom

You can add a few more minor details while decorating your child’s bathroom to make the room even more kid-friendly. Here are a few things you may add to their bathroom to make it more attractive and functional.

• Open Shelves

With open shelves, you can prevent the disorganisation of items and the misplacing of things by your child. Your kids can see everything on open shelves and get the things they need easily. Also, the shelves should not be very high up but should be within their reach. 

• Non-Slip Flooring 

Always try to install anti-skid tiles for the bathroom flooring to prevent slip-and-fall accidents. However, you still need to keep an eye on the children as accidents may still happen. 

• Side-by-Side Taps 

If you have more than one child at home, it is better to have a large wash basin with a few taps. Your children can use the basin together, standing side by side while being in a hurry to go to school. 

• Protect Walls with Tiles 

Children often damage bathroom walls with their splashing and messing around. By installing water-resistant bathroom wall tiles, you can protect the walls from scratches and water penetration while adding more character to the decor.
