Posters for the kids' room
A children's room has to survive years of looking at, which argues for motifs calm enough to grow with the child. Soft watercolours of animals, moons and stars work as well above a cot as above a desk a few years later.\n\n30x40 and 40x50 are the practical sizes. Two or three from the same series above the bed make a coherent group, and you can swap out one motif at a time as interests change.\n\nTwo practical notes: hang prints out of reach of the bed, and choose acrylic glazing over real glass in rooms where children play.

Frequently asked questions
- What size poster suits a children's room?
- 30x40 cm and 40x50 cm. Large enough to read from the bed, small enough that you can hang two or three together above a dresser or bed.
- How high should a poster hang in a children's room?
- A little lower than in other rooms, so the child sees the motif from the floor. Around 120–130 cm to centre works well. But always hang out of reach of the bed.
- Which motifs last longest in a children's room?
- Calm watercolours of animals, moons and stars. They stay neutral enough to work from nursery to school age, unlike motifs tied to one character or interest.
- Which frame is safest in a children's room?
- Frames with acrylic glazing rather than real glass, and secure wall fixings rather than a nail. In rooms where children play it is worth the small extra cost.
