What should you look for in a children’s bedroom lamp?
When choosing a lamp for the children’s room, keep these important aspects in mind:
- Adjustable lighting: choose a lamp with adjustable brightness or a dimmable light bulb, so you can adapt it perfectly to different activities, such as reading or playing.
- Safety: make sure the lamp is child-safe, with non-toxic materials and a stable base.
- Attractive design: choose products with a design that matches the theme of your child's room and stimulates their creativity.
- Energy efficiency: to save energy, consider LED lamps that last a long time and use less electricity.
By choosing the right lamp for the children’s room, you can create a welcoming and stimulating space for your kids.
Don’t hesitate to let your creativity run wild when lighting your little ones’ bedroom.

How to choose a lamp for the children’s bedroom?
Here are some tips for choosing the right lamp for your children’s bedroom:
- Consider the size of the room. If the room is small, opt for a ceiling lamp or pendant that lights the entire area. If the room is large, you can add table lamps or wall lights to create a cosier atmosphere.
- Consider the child's age. For young children, it's best to choose a lamp with a soft light that won't dazzle them. For older children, on the other hand, you can opt for a lamp with a brighter light, suitable for studying.
- Consider the style of the child’s bedroom. The lamp should be in harmony with the style of the room. If the bedroom is furnished in a modern style, you can opt for a lamp with a simple, clean design. If, on the other hand, the bedroom is decorated in a classic style, you can choose a lamp with a more elaborate design.

Lights for children's bedrooms
Just like furniture and accessories, bedroom lights should reflect the tastes and personality of whoever lives there, whether it’s a girl or a boy. For girls’ bedrooms, lights can have delicate shapes and colours (for example, a lamp shaped like a star, cloud or heart), while lamps for boys can be themed around space, cars or superheroes. But the opposite can be true as well.

Chandeliers for modern children's bedrooms
If the children’s room is furnished in a modern style, you can opt for pendant lights with a simple, geometric design. For example, you could choose a spherical or cube-shaped pendant, with matching or contrasting colours.
What are the essential elements for lighting a child’s bedroom?
Just as in other rooms, for optimal lighting it’s best to combine different types of light sources.
Here are the key points:
- Main lighting: this can be achieved with ceiling lights or pendant lamps that provide an even light throughout the room. Avoid lights that are too bright, as they could dazzle children while playing. Light bulbs hidden by fabric lampshades can offer a pleasant, indirect light.
- Desk lights: When children start doing their homework, a desk lamp with direct light is essential. A light with a natural white colour temperature (around 4,000 Kelvin) helps with concentration. If you position the lamp on the left for right-handed children and on the right for left-handed children, you’ll avoid annoying shadows.
- Decorative lights: fairy lights, portable lamps and other decorative lights make children’s bedrooms even more welcoming. Make sure the light temperature is below 3,300 Kelvin for a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere.
