There are a host of stunning options in wall murals for children and there truly is something for every type of child and their interests. Murals bring a wealth of benefits to a room and are a great source of inspiration for kids too, in terms of encouraging their imagination, playfulness and education.
Wall murals can reduce screen time (and we all want that!)
A visually fascinating room can draw children away from digital devices by providing a fun and stimulating alternative for entertainment. They are much more likely to want to play if he scene is set.
Murals bring the fun!
Murals brighten boring walls and dull play areas can be made so much more fun by adding a bright and cheerful theme, especially if it aligns to your individual child.
Murals enable you to create a themed room
With such a stunning centrepiece you could tie in bedding, lampshades, toys and so on and really bring your child’s immersive play experience to life.
Let me show you some of my favourites from the collection and look at how they may inspire your child.

Final thoughts
There really is a wall mural for every child and they really do define a child’s bedroom and make it rather wonderful.
Murals create an entertaining and super stimulating environment that encourages creative play and storytelling as well as looking absolutely amazing. An individualised space can create a sense of ownership too and will encourage your child to both respect and take care of their space. It will also provide them with sense of place that is entirely their own, something we all crave.
Let them help choose the mural that is right for them and their particular interests and you will begin to shape a space they love and are proud of.
