Decorate A Toddler'S Bathroom

Use a toddler-friendly theme, such as rubber ducks, for your toddler's bathroom.


Decorate your toddler's bathroom using decor that makes it friendly and comfortable for her, while maintaining a safe and easy-to-clean environment. Use a color scheme or theme that your toddler enjoys, with a touch of elegance if older children or guests use the bathroom as well.


Instructions


1. Involve your toddler in choosing the theme or color scheme if she exhibits clear taste on what she does and does not like. Common ideas for a toddler include a spring garden, insects, fish, ducks, turtles, frogs, nautical or a favorite character. Allow her to choose simple details if the entire theme is too much for her.


2. Paint the walls in a single color or pattern, such as stripes, that complement the theme or color scheme you've selected. Any color can work in your toddler's bathroom, although light or bright colors are ideal.


3. Hang a shower curtain on shower curtain hooks that complement your theme. A simple curtain with a cheerful pattern is ideal. Clear curtains with bright patterns that allow you to see inside the shower are ideal so you can keep an eye on him. Forgo the shower curtain if your toddler is the only one who uses the bathroom and takes only baths.








4. Fold matching towels over the towel rack. Add a matching group of towels under the sink, in a cabinet or other area where your toddler can reach. Personalized towels with your toddler's name will make the room more special.


5. Place a bath mat in front of the tub with a non-skid back. Choose a plain color that complements the bathroom colors or a design, such as a duck or flower shape, depending on the theme.


6. Decorate the walls with pictures or wall hangings that complement the bathroom's theme. Pictures of lighthouses, a ship's wheel and anchor or hooks that look like ships would work well in a nautical bathroom.


7. Accessorize the bathroom with a coordinating cup, toothbrush holder, soap dispenser, garbage can, non-slip bath decals and stepping stool.
