tips for picking out kids wall art

make it feel like them (for the bigger kids)

you want their room to feel like their room! think about how to reflect their interests and include that throughout their space. you can get your kid involved in the process if they’re old enough.

here are some ideas to get you started:

• interests (do they like a specific animal? elephants? trains?)
• favorite colors
• hobbies or sports
• favorite stories or characters
• favorite foods

from there you can put your own “spin” on the subject to make it feel more artistic or sophisticated — because you should love the space too!

consider the rest of the room

is their room painted a certain color? do you have lots of pattern? try to coordinate the art you choose with what’s happening throughout the room so it feels cohesive.

let the art grow with them

keep in mind that you (and they) might want to switch out the art as your kid grows, so you might not need to put pressure on yourself to find perfect “forever” art. part of the fun with this is watching how your kid’s space evolves with them and how their art reflects their changing interests over time.

with those tips in mind, i rounded up lots of art pieces that feel fun for kids — and hopefully for you too!

florals + fruit

animals + nature

ABCs

whimsical

ocean + beach

sports

literature + characters

personalized art

frames for kids wall art

some of these pieces come with framing options, but since lots of options these days are offered as digital downloads, i thought it’d be helpful to share some frames for your new art.

where to get kids wall art printed (and framed)

if you’re downloading prints you’re might want to get them professionally printed as well, here are some options i recommend!

• framebridge – incredibly easy and really amazing quality.
• simply framed – i’ve never used them before and can’t speak for the craftsmanship, but you can also print and frame together.
• artifact uprising – really high quality framing and printing, prices can be high but they do sales pretty often!
• mixtiles – mixtiles are a super unique style, they’re printed without any glass and can stick right to the wall without nails. obviously that makes them really easy to hang and reposition, but i did find it annoying to try to move one later on without having their proprietary sticky back.

i hope this post helped if you’re looking for beautiful art to hang in your child’s room!

and if your nursery or kid’s room has a theme and you’re looking for art you didn’t find here let me know! i love a good challenge.
