When it comes to decorating, a kids' bedroom is a space where your imagination can really run wild. We've brought together some of the most incredible children's rooms, where parents have gone above and beyond to create truly magical interiors for their little ones. From whimsical woodland retreats to fairytale castles and outer space schemes, these bedrooms are out of this world.

Children's rooms are often the smallest bedrooms in the house so clever illusions will enhance the sense of space. Two-toned walls have the effect of opening up narrow rooms and they are a fun paint effect to play with. This warm palette of soft teal and burnt orange might otherwise look flat in a tiny bedroom but the look is brightened up by painting the upper half of the walls white. Decorative paper chains hung from the horizontal line makes a feature of the colour split. 

A floaty, opaque canopy will give an ordinary children's bed a royal appearance. For an enchanting finish, add a dreamy blackout blind in with an attractive flower pattern and then balance the scheme with a soft blue shade across the adjacent walls.

Take inspiration from the wilderness and create a rustic, forest scheme for your little adventurer. A mountainscape wall mural is a perfect way to set the scene and create an incredible atmosphere. The fun woodland cabin-look bed is an apt addition for any enthusiastic den builders.

Bring the outside into a shared children's bedroom with pretty wallpaper full of secret garden scenes. Twin beds pick out the soft colour palette while cloud-shaped shelving and practical wooden box storage give each sleeper their own space to keep arguments to a minimum.

Let your kids put on a dazzling show with a colourful rainbow-themed bedroom. Fabulous vibrant spots on a feature wall look striking and modern against a white backdrop while black furniture adds balance. A large and colourful rug ties the room together.

Cabin beds are, of course, practical storage providers in children's bedrooms and can also make magical hang-outs when customised. Add a simple run of fabric to the bed to create curtains; kids will love their new private space beneath. Mount a children's wall light inside, string up some pretty fairy lights or experiment with LED strip lights to complete the cosy, camp-like atmosphere. 

Dark colours don't have to be daunting. Set against a black backdrop this whimsical wooden bed frame in the shape of a house is a simple but effective way to add a fun and striking flourish to your child's bedroom. Plenty of white balances the drama and graphic pattern adds unique touches to inspire any little dreamer.

Cosy corners are great for creating bedroom dens or just curling up with a good book. This snuggly space has a fairytale feel that's perfect for a little princess or prince. For a whimsical touch, add plenty of soft cushions and blankets and frame the corner with soft lighting to guide the way.

Neutral tones are a wise choice for children's bedrooms as they can be easily updated. Be brave rather than boring with a pared-back palette by creating a cute paint effect to add character.
