Are you looking to decorate your kid's bedroom for Christmas this year? Well, don't worry, we've got you covered. What’s even better, creating decorations and installing them is a great activity to do with your kid. Here are some of our favourite fun yet budget-friendly ways to get your kid's bedroom looking festive and ready for the holidays.

1. Lights, Lights, Lights!

String lights are a great way to add a festive feel to your kid's bedroom. Not only are they inexpensive and super low-effort, but they provide a nice twinkly glow that will make your kid's bedroom look magical and Christmassy year after year.

2. DIY Snowflakes

If you're feeling crafty, you can make your own homemade snowflakes to hang in your kid's bedroom. All you need is some white paper, scissors, and a stapler or glue to get started.

3. Christmas Bedtime Stories

Christmas is a lot about getting into the right mindset, and stories can do that better than most things. Either pick up a few Christmas themed books from friends, an op shop, or the bookstore, or browse the many free stories available here.

4. Bedroom Door Wreath

You don't have to spend a lot of money to make your kid's bedroom look festive. All you need is a small wreath, some holiday decorations, and a ribbon to hang a welcoming wreath on your kid's bedroom door. You can even go looking for suitable pine, spruce, or eucalyptus branches to make your own wreath if none of the store-bought ones takes your fancy.

5. Homemade Stockings

If you want to get creative, you can make your own stockings for your kid's bedroom. Come Christmas, you can fill the stocking with their favourite treats and exciting trinkets. All you need is some fabric, scissors, and a needle and thread. You’re also likely to find a variety of stockings at an op shop or at most retailers for a few dollars if DIYing is off the table.

6. Drape Garlands on the Bed Frame or Dresser

whether you opt for storebought garlands or homemade ones from scrap pieces of colourful paper, garlands can make any space festive in no time. Making Christmas garlands is a great activity to do with your kids, so crack out the paper, scissors and glue and get crafting!

7. Christmas-Themed Bedsheets

Whether it’s a Santa doona cover, red and green sheets, or crisp white cotton sheets to resemble freshly fallen snow, bed sheets is a great way to hem up the Christmas-feel of your child’s room. This small touch may have your child excited to snuggle up in bed each night, perhaps affording you some extra time to yourself.
