Kids’ room lighting ideas – How to create a bright and cosy space.

Lighting plays a key role in children’s rooms – it should be safe, practical, and at the same time fun and inspiring. The right lamps help create a cosy environment for sleep, study, and play.

Why lighting matters in kids’ rooms

• Supports healthy sleep with the right brightness and colour temperature.

• Creates zones for study, play, and relaxation.

• Adds charm with playful designs and colours.

Types of lights for children’s rooms

• Ceiling lights – general lighting that evenly covers the whole room.

• Table lamps or desk lamps – for study, reading, and creative activities.

• Night lights – soft and warm glow to make kids feel safe at night.

• Wall lights – decorative and practical, especially near beds.

Colour temperature and mood

• Warm white (2700–3000K): calming, ideal for bedtime.

• Neutral white (3500–4000K): balanced, good for playing and studying.

• Avoid very cool light (6000K), as it can feel too harsh.

Practical tips

• Choose safe materials (no sharp edges, strong fixings, certified materials).

• Use dimmers where possible – perfect for flexible use day and night.

• Pick fun designs – stars, clouds, animals – to make the room feel magical.

• For shared rooms, consider individual lights for each child’s corner.
