How to create a jungle-themed children's bedroom

Nothing is more exciting for a child than the dream of going on an adventure. So, why not help make that dream a reality by transforming their bedroom into a jungle paradise? In this article, we’ll share our top jungle-themed bedroom ideas and detail how you can create a child's space that will inspire the adventurer inside them.

Choose a tropical colour palette

Evoke visions of a tropical paradise by choosing colours that will allow your child to feel like they are walking through the depths of a dense jungle. Rainforests are awash with incredible flora, so choosing hues such as jade, emerald, pine and forest green as the base will achieve this. For splashes of brighter colour, think of adding accessories in vibrant pinks, oranges and yellows which will represent stunning tropical flowers.

Every parent struggles to keep their little one's room tidy, so finding the right storage solutions for children's bedrooms is always a priority. Opting to install green fitted wardrobes from Hammonds will not only tie in with the jungle theme, but it will also offer a practical solution to keep bedrooms free from clutter.

Printed wallpaper

You want to create a space that is as exciting as it is aesthetically pleasing, and a great way to achieve this is by using patterned wallpaper.

Covering the walls in printed wallpaper featuring vivid botanical prints, palm leaves and exotic plants will add a sense of depth and texture. Better yet, you'll find lots of tropical wallpaper designs featuring some of the magical wildlife found within the jungle, such as monkeys, jaguars and birds, which will delight your little ones while looking stylish.

If you have a touch of artistic flair, you could consider painting your own mural featuring your children's favourite jungle animals.

Use natural materials

Bring a much-needed sense of calm to the space while keeping to the natural theme by choosing to decorate the room with wooden materials. A wooden bedframe and wicker or rattan storage boxes to keep toys out of sight would work perfectly.

Choosing natural elements for your décor will add character and depth to their bedroom but will also tie in seamlessly with the aesthetic you are trying to achieve.

Botanical bedding

A popular choice for interior design ideas for children's bedrooms that embrace a jungle theme is botanical bedding.

You can adorn your child's bed with bedding and blankets that feature bright and beautiful prints of exotic plants and palms. Add a pop of colour with soft, silk cushions in bright colours, such as fuchsia, yellow and orange, that contrast the green hues of the duvet cover.

Animal accessories

What better way to bring the world you are creating to life than filling their bedroom with some of their favourite furry animals found in the jungle?

Placing soft toys such as monkeys, lions and elephants around their bedroom will ensure your child can enjoy hours of fun and let their imagination run wild as they play in their tropical paradise.
