Kids Room Decor: How to Choose the Art

Kids room wall art has one tricky job: it has to suit the child you have now and the one who moves in about two years later with opinions. Three questions narrow it down fast: how old they are, what they love right now, and which room it's going in.

By age

Nursery (0 to 2): soft palettes and simple shapes. Baby animals in watercolor-style washes, gentle moons and quiet meadows sit well with pale walls and a glider in the corner. Our nursery wall art page goes deeper on crib walls.

Toddler (2 to 4): toddler room wall art can turn up the color and the characters. Animals doing things they really shouldn't, like a dinosaur in a flower field or a hedgehog in sunglasses, give a toddler something to point at and name. Browse more in toddler wall art.

Big kid (5 to 8): this is when the room becomes theirs. Astronauts, dragons and anything with a story behind it. Let them pick between two or three options you already like.

Tween (9 to 12): fewer characters, more mood. Misty horses, night skies, bold graphic animals. Kids bedroom wall art at this age should look like a room they're proud of, not the one they had at four.

By what they're into

Start with the thing they talk about at dinner. Animal kids land well in woodland wall art or safari wall art. Kids who look up go for space wall art, and kids who stomp go for dinosaur wall art. Water babies have ocean wall art. If the interest changes every six weeks, choose the palette first and the theme second, so the next swap still matches the bedding.

By room

Bedroom: one larger piece over the bed or dresser, or a set of two over a twin. Browse boys room wall art and girls room wall art if you want a head start, though most children's wall art here works for any kid.

Shared room: pick one palette and give each child their own subject inside it. A set of two works well here: one piece over each bed, same size, same colors, no arguments about whose is bigger.

Playroom: playroom wall art can be the loudest art in the house. Bright colors and bigger characters hold up across a room full of toys. See our playroom wall art.

Reading nook: one small, calm piece at a sitting child's eye level. An 8x10 or 8x12 is plenty.

What Size Wall Art for a Kids' Room?

Our pieces come in two tall shapes, each with a wide version. Every product page lists the sizes for that piece.

Where it goesSizes to look at
Shelf, nightstand or small nook8x10 or 8x12
Beside a window, or part of a set of 4 or 612x16 or 12x18
Over a dresser or a toddler bed16x24 or 18x24
Over a twin bed or on a feature wall20x28, 20x30, 24x32 or 24x36
Wide spot over a headboardWide sizes up to 36x24

How high to hang it: hang the center of the piece about 48 inches from the floor. That's lower than the usual eye-level rule, which suits a room where most of the audience is under four feet tall.

Over furniture: leave 6 to 8 inches between the top of the bed or dresser and the bottom of the frame, and aim for art about two-thirds the width of the furniture below it.

On a gallery wall: keep 2 to 3 inches between frames.

Framed, Unframed or Canvas?

Unframed fine art prints, from $42. These kids art prints come ready to frame. A good pick if you already own frames you love, or want to match frames across a room.

Framed, from $99. Arrives ready to hang with hardware included, in natural oak, walnut, white or black. You choose the front: kid-safe plexi or real glass, at the same price. We'd go plexi in a kids' room, especially over a bed or anywhere a ball gets thrown.

Float framed canvas, from $119. Arrives ready to hang in a natural wood, walnut or black float frame, with no glass or plexi in front of the art. It reads softer and works well on a feature wall.

Starting prices are for the smallest size of a single piece. Bigger sizes and sets cost more, and each product page shows the exact price before you add it to your cart.

Kids Art Gallery Wall Sets

Gallery wall rule number one: measure twice. Rule number two: skip the measuring stress and buy a set that already goes together. Our gallery wall sets come in sets of 2, 3, 4 and 6, with every piece in the same size and the same palette, so nothing clashes.

A few kids art wall ideas that work every time:

  • Set of 2: side by side over a dresser, or one over each bed in a shared room.
  • Set of 3: in a row over a twin bed, 2 to 3 inches apart.
  • Set of 4: two rows of two for a tidy square above a desk or reading chair.
  • Set of 6: two rows of three for a full feature wall in a playroom.

Themed sets live in collections like woodland wall art sets and safari wall art sets.

Kids Wall Decor Picks from Our Collection

Six favorites from the grid above, with what each one looks like up close and where it hangs best.

Three fluffy white sheep, two grown-ups and a lamb, standing in golden meadow grass under a pale cream sky

Fluffy Trio Tales

Two smiling sheep and a small lamb stand in golden wheat grass under a soft cream sky. Warm honey and ivory tones, nothing loud.

A wide piece that settles over a crib or a low dresser in a nursery. Pair it with a white or natural oak frame.

Six prints of safari animals playing instruments: a zebra on double bass, a lion at the piano, a hippo on harp, an elephant on tuba, singing meerkats and a cheetah on violin

Savanna Animal Band (choose your own set)

A zebra on double bass, a lion at the piano, a hippo on harp and a tuba-playing elephant, with music notes floating around each one. Seven designs to choose from.

Pick 2, 3, 4 or 6 for a playroom gallery wall. Every set has a natural lead singer, and it's usually the meerkats.

Giraffe family in cowboy hats and bandanas inside a scalloped red and cream arch on a teal starry background

Tall Tale Trio

Two giraffes in cowboy hats and a little one in a leopard bandana, framed by a scalloped arch on a teal, star-dotted background. Crayon-style texture, folk-art feel.

Bold enough to carry a playroom wall on its own. Try it with a red or rust accent somewhere else in the room.

Six dinosaur landscape prints in olive, mustard and teal: long-necked dinosaurs in golden grass, a triceratops herd, a dinosaur by a palm tree and an armored dinosaur by a river

Earthy Landscape Dinosaur (choose your own set)

Long-necked dinosaurs cross golden grass, a triceratops herd gathers on red earth, and an armored dinosaur wanders a teal river. Painterly hills in olive, mustard and teal, nine designs in all.

Calm enough for a big kid who'll still love dinosaurs at ten. A set of 3 in a row fits over a twin bed.

Small astronaut reaching up to catch a glowing gold star from a trail of stars across a deep navy night sky

Star Catcher

A small astronaut reaches up to grab a glowing gold star from a trail across a deep navy sky. Lots of dark, quiet room around one bright moment.

Made for a space-loving big kid. It holds a whole wall over a bed in the larger sizes.

Three purple and cream prints of skateboarders: one mid-air over a ramp, a close-up of a board on a ledge, and a skater grinding a stair rail

Purple Skatepark Skaters (choose your own set)

Skaters caught mid-trick in deep purple against cream clouds: one flying off a ramp, one board tipped on a ledge, one grinding a stair rail. Six designs, all graphic and clean.

Made for a tween room that has outgrown animals. A set of 3 over a dresser looks sharp in black or walnut frames.

Kids Wall Art FAQ

How much does kids wall art cost?

Our kids wall art starts at $42 for an unframed fine art print, $99 for a framed piece and $119 for float framed canvas. Those prices are for the smallest size of a single piece. Larger sizes and sets cost more, and every product page shows the exact price. U.S. orders over $100 ship free.

What size wall art is best for a kids' room?

For most walls in a kids' room, 16x24 or 18x24 is the easiest size: big enough to anchor a dresser or toddler bed, small enough not to crowd it. Go 20x28 or larger over a twin bed or on a feature wall, and 8x10 or 8x12 for shelves and reading nooks.

Is framed art safe in a kid's room?

Our frames come with a kid-safe plexi front as an option, at the same price as real glass. For a kids' room we'd choose plexi, especially over a bed or in a playroom. Float framed canvas has no front panel at all. Whatever you choose, hang it securely and out of reach of climbers.

How high should you hang art in a child's room?

Hang the center of the art about 48 inches from the floor, lower than you would elsewhere in the house, so the child can actually see it. Over furniture, leave 6 to 8 inches between the furniture and the bottom of the frame. On a gallery wall, keep 2 to 3 inches between frames.

Can I change the colors or characters on a print?

Yes. We can change colors, swap characters, adjust the size or combine ideas from two pieces, at no extra charge. Send us the piece and what you have in mind, and we'll send a free proof for your OK before anything is printed. Custom pieces may take an extra day or two for the proof step.

How long does shipping take?

Every piece is made to order. Production usually takes 2 to 7 business days, and standard U.S. delivery usually takes another 2 to 4 business days after it ships. These are estimates, not guarantees. You get a tracking email when your order ships. If you have a birthday coming, contact us and we'll do our best to help.

Can I return kids wall art?

Yes. Every order has a 30-day money-back guarantee, counted from the day it arrives, and that includes custom and personalized pieces. Email support@teepeejoy.com with your order number. Return shipping is on us if we made a mistake; otherwise it's yours. If something arrives damaged, we send a replacement at no cost.

What's good wall art for a toddler room or playroom?

At the toddler stage, wall art works best with clear, bright characters a toddler can name: animals, vehicles, dinosaurs. Playrooms can go even bolder, with bigger pieces or a set of 4 or 6 across one wall. Choose kid-safe plexi or canvas for both, since both rooms see flying toys.
