Choosing a theme might make the decoration task easier because then you can choose decor elements within that theme, which brings down the number of decor possibilities out there.
Choose a theme your kid likes such as wild animals and from there pick elements that are linked to this theme, such as the teddy bears and pillows, bed setting, and wall decor for example.

Having a reading nook in your toddler’s room is great for spending time together during reading story time and is perfect for adding some adorable decoration.
Choose a comfortable chair and place it close to the bookshelves to make it easier for you.
Placing some cute teddy bears on the chair can also be a good idea to make this corner extra special.
3. Combine neutral colors with details in strong color

Combining neutral and strong colors is great for creating contrast and visual interest.
For bedrooms, and especially for a toddler bedroom, though, strong colors like red should be used in moderation to avoid stimulating too much energy and excitement.
Add only some details in strong colors, like in this picture where the majority of the room decoration is in beige and the red is present only in some details such as in the hot air balloons, the car in the pillowcase, and the toys.
Red splashes in moderation just to add a pop of color.
4. Colorful panel

Pink, blue, yellow, green, …Adding colors to a toddler room can completely transform it and turn it into a creative area that your kid will love!
One nice way to do it is by creating a colorful panel that can have a nice pattern and adding other decorations to it such as cute and colorful pictures of elements your kid loves.
To make a room full of color, you don’t have to focus solely on a panel. You can add more color in different ways, such as in the bed set, or the floor area with a rug full of different colors to create a fun decoration.
5. Fun wallpaper on the ceiling

A very creative way of decorating a toddler bedroom is by choosing a colorful and fun wallpaper to put on the ceiling, instead of the walls.
The walls can be painted in a neutral color and have some decor elements on them, but the focal point would be the ceiling.
A fantastic example is the one in this picture. When you look up you see a cute sun – so creative!
6. Fun wallpaper on one wall

Choosing a fun wallpaper for one of the walls of a toddler bedroom is another super creative idea. You add color and a fun element to the decoration.
It can also help in case you choose a theme for the decoration, such as “beach” or “coastal”.
The wallpaper can have waves and other elements such as art print which also evoke beach elements.
7. Natural materials

The use of natural materials for the decoration is a good option to make the room look simple, but elegant and cozy. It can give the perfect look for a toddler bedroom.
Materials such as wood and rattan can be used in the furniture, such as the bed frame, bedside, and floating shelves, and decor elements, such as baskets and other small items, for example.
Bringing some other natural elements such as plants and flowers can also give a nice touch to the whole decoration.
