Complete Guide to Choosing Kids’ Wallpaper in South Africa
With so many options available, choosing kids’ wallpaper can feel overwhelming. Should you go for bold patterns, subtle pastels, or storybook themes?

This guide walks you through the essentials for selecting the right wallpaper.

Think about longevity
Choose a wallpaper that won’t feel outgrown in just a year or two. Neutral designs like the Soft Check Nursery Wallpaper or scenic murals like the Tiny Travels nursery wallpaper can adapt as your child’s tastes evolve.
2. Match the room’s function
Nurseries often need calming tones, while older kids’ rooms can handle more adventurous designs. The Whistle & Wheels Wallpaper is playful yet versatile, making it a great choice for bedrooms that double as play spaces.
3. Consider themed storytelling
Wallpapers with woodland or jungle themes spark imagination and creativity. The Jungle Explorer wallpaper design brings soft watercolour greenery and friendly animals that create a sense of wonder.
4. Pair with complementary textiles
Wallpaper doesn’t need to stand alone — bedding and accessories complete the look. The Little Cars Cotton Muslin Baby Blanket adds texture and comfort, tying together transport-themed designs or travel-inspired murals.
5. Don’t forget practicality
Kids’ rooms are busy, so durability matters. Look for high-quality, washable wallpapers that resist scuffs and stains. Lily Grace Design wallpapers are printed to order on durable materials, ensuring they last through the toddler years and beyond.
