Inspiring Paint Colors for Kids’ Rooms

Whether you’re drawn to soft, calming tones for a peaceful retreat or bold, energetic hues to inspire fun and play, the right color can transform the space completely. Explore the ideas below to spark inspiration for your next kids’ room painting project and create a space that feels entirely their own.

Lavender

Looking for a color that’s both playful and calming? Lavender offers the perfect mix. It's soothing without feeling dull and lively without being overpowering. For a gentle, subtle touch, consider Sherwin-Williams Lite Lavender (SW 6554), which creates a soft and delicate atmosphere. If you want a more vibrant pop of color, Sherwin-Williams Lavish Lavender (SW 6975) provides a brighter, more energetic twist on this classic shade.

For a soft and subtle look, try Sherwin-Williams Mild Blue (SW 6533). If you're aiming for a more relaxed, coastal vibe, Languid Blue (SW 6226) is a perfect choice. Want something bolder?

Best Paint Options for Kids’ Rooms

Kids’ rooms tend to experience more wear and tear than other areas of the home, it’s important to choose paint that is durable, safe, and easy to maintain. When selecting the right paint and finish, consider these key factors:

High-Durability Finishes: Active kids often leave walls with scuffs, fingerprints, and marks. To keep walls looking fresh, opt for paints with an eggshell finish or higher. These finishes resist everyday wear better and are easier to clean than flat or matte paints, which tend to show imperfections more clearly.

Low or Zero VOC Paints: Traditional paints can release volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which may affect indoor air quality and cause symptoms like headaches or dizziness. Choosing low or zero VOC paints helps create a healthier, safer environment by minimizing harmful fumes during and after painting.
