Playroom Wallpaper

Kids Playroom Wallpaper They Will Not Outgrow

Playroom wallpaper is a wall covering made for the room where your kids play. Think maps, rainbows, animals, roads and friendly cartoon scenes. It turns a plain box room into somewhere they want to be.

Giffywalls prints every playroom wall mural to the exact size of your wall. We have shipped these designs to basements, spare rooms and corners of living rooms across the country. The question we get most is simple. Will they grow out of it? Pick well and they will not.

Design Ideas That Last

Maps and Learning Walls

A world map is the safest long play. It looks good at four and still works at twelve. Kids point at it, ask questions and learn without trying. Our kids map wallpaper is a favorite for shared rooms.

Rainbows and Shapes

Big arcs and simple shapes bring color without a theme to outgrow. They suit toddlers best. Look through the rainbow wallpaper designs for the softer end.

Animals and Story Scenes

Jungle, woodland and farm scenes give a room a story. Kids name the animals and make up games around them. Keep the drawing gentle rather than loud, and it will last longer.

How to Plan the Room

Make it one playroom accent wall, not four papered ones. A playroom is already full of color. Toys, mats, books and bins bring plenty of their own. Four busy walls make the room feel loud and hard to tidy.

Pick the wall they face when they play. That is usually the one behind the table or the reading corner. Leave the wall behind the storage plain. Shelves and boxes cover it anyway, and a good mural gets wasted there.

Choosing Colors That Do Not Wear Out

Bright primary colors look great in a photo. They can feel loud after a month. A softer palette is easier to live with, especially if the playroom sits off a living room. Sage, dusty blue, blush, cream and soft yellow all work. Save the strong color for the toys and the rug. Those are quick and easy to swap. The wall is not.

Making It Last as They Grow

This is the part worth thinking about. A four-year-old and a nine-year-old want different rooms. Themes date fastest. Cartoon characters date fastest of all.

Safer picks are maps, sky and cloud designs, mountains, simple shapes and gentle animals. All of them still read well later. If you do want a strong theme, keep it to one wall so it is quick to change. Our wider kids room wallpaper range covers both routes.

Shared Rooms and Split Ages

Plenty of playrooms serve two kids at once. A five-year-old and a ten-year-old rarely want the same wall. The fix is to go neutral on the mural and personal everywhere else. A map, a sky or a mountain range suits both. Then let each child own their own corner with prints, shelves and a rug they picked. The wall stays the calm part. That way you are not repapering every time one of them changes their mind.

Practical Points for a Busy Room

Playrooms take a beating. Sticky hands, chair backs, ride-on toys and tape all land on the walls. A patterned wall hides marks far better than flat paint does. A mid-tone design hides them best of all. Pure white shows every fingerprint.

One more tip. Leave a lower strip clear or plan for a low shelf, so the artwork you care about sits above the mess. That way the good part stays visible.

Sizing, Finish and Fitting

Send us the width and height of your wall. We scale the design to fit, so nothing important lands behind a door. Peel and stick playroom wallpaper suits a cartoon wallpaper scene you may want to swap in a few years. Choose paste the wall for something you plan to keep. Panels arrive numbered, with hanging notes in the box. Shipping is free on every order.
