Kids Wallpaper for Bold Aussie Bedrooms
Kids wallpaper is a printed wall design made for nurseries, kids' bedrooms, toddler rooms, and playrooms. Our range covers jungle, safari, dinosaur, space, animal, sports, vehicle, floral, watercolour, woodland, ocean, mountain, and bold geometric prints for ages 0 to 12. Every print uses kids safe wallpaper inks and non toxic wallpaper materials, so the air stays clean while a child sleeps and plays. Self adhesive options come off cleanly, which keeps your bond safe in a rental property. Custom sizes mean any Aussie wall fits, from short Federation rooms to tall Queenslander bedrooms.
Browse Children's Wallpaper Designs by Theme
Our children's wallpaper range covers ten broad themes for nurseries, toddler rooms, kids' bedrooms, and playrooms. Jungle wallpaper and safari wallpaper bring leafy green and friendly animals to a wall behind the cot. Dinosaur wallpaper gives palaeontology fans their own Jurassic feature. Space wallpaper, cloud wallpaper, and star wallpaper lift a navy bedroom with rocket ships, planets, and a calm night sky. Animal wallpaper, including kangaroo and koala prints, feels right at home in an Aussie kids' room. Floral, botanical, and watercolour wallpaper suit a softer mood. Unicorn wallpaper and rainbow wallpaper add cheer to a younger child's space. Mountain wallpaper, ocean wallpaper, and woodland wallpaper sit well with older kids who want something calmer. World map wallpaper and forest wallpaper lean toward tween and teen rooms. Pastel prints and gender neutral designs work for shared bedrooms where siblings sleep side by side. Nursery wallpaper for babies stays gentle, with soft greys, sage, and dusty blue. Toddler wallpaper for ages 2 to 5 leans a touch bolder, with characters little ones can name and point to. Boys' wallpaper and girls wallpaper sit side by side here, since the prints work for both.
Bold without nightmare fuel
Bright is fine. Scary is not. Every print uses friendly shapes, soft outlines, and balanced colour, so a four year old can still settle to sleep facing the wall.
Kid Safe Wallpaper Made With Non Toxic Inks
Yes, our prints are kid safe wallpaper. They use water based pigments and low VOC inks, with a breathable base paper that is free from heavy metals. The result is non toxic wallpaper that meets the kind of safety checks Aussie parents look for, including AS/NZS aligned standards. Sticky fingers and the odd texta wipe off with a damp microfibre cloth, no harsh sprays needed. Kids safe wallpaper also resists fading, so colours stay bright through years of sunshine through Aussie windows.
Why low VOC inks matter for nurseries
Babies sleep around 14 hours a day in their nursery. Low VOC inks mean the air around the cot stays clean from day one, with no lingering print smell to worry about.
Pairing Kids Wallpaper with Aussie Decor
Kids wallpaper Australia families pair best with white flat pack cots, plain pine beds, and primary colour bedding. Jungle prints sit well next to sage cushions, blackbutt flooring, and a soft cream rug. Space prints lift a navy or charcoal bedding set without making the room feel dark. Vehicle and racing prints sit well with red, yellow, or denim blue bedding. Geometric designs in mustard, teal, and clay pair beautifully with plain wood furniture and a chunky knit throw. For shared bedrooms with siblings, gender neutral prints in sage, terracotta, or warm grey work for both kids without favouring one. Keep the opposite wall in a soft white or warm grey so the mural stays the focus. Plantation shutters or plain linen curtains work better than busy patterns. A washable cotton rug finishes the kids' room decor.
Pairing with white skirting and Hamptons trim
Many Aussie homes lean Hamptons or coastal with white skirting and crisp trim. The mural sits inside that frame cleanly, with the white skirting grounding the bottom and keeping the print sharp.
Picking the Right Wall for an Accent in a Kids' Bedroom
The wall behind the bed is usually the best accent wall in a small Aussie kids' room. It puts the print in view from the doorway without crowding a desk or wardrobe. In a long, narrow room, the short end wall works better than a side wall. For rumpus rooms and playrooms, pick the wall the kid faces during play, not the one behind them. South facing kids' rooms in Melbourne suit warm prints in yellows, terracottas, and soft oranges to lift the cooler light. North facing rooms in Brisbane and Perth can take cooler blues and greens without going flat. Low ceilings benefit from vertical prints like rockets or tall trees. High Queenslander ceilings can take big scale jungle or sky prints. Avoid murals on a wall with three doors or a split system unit that breaks up the print.
Behind the bed versus behind the desk
Behind the bed is calmer for sleep. Behind the desk is better for focus and play. Pick based on how the kid uses the room most.
Self Adhesive Options for Rental Friendly Bedrooms
Self adhesive kids wallpaper is the rental friendly choice. It goes up dry, comes off cleanly, and does not damage paint, which keeps the bond safe at inspection time. Two people make the install quicker, but it is doable solo. Clean the wall, lift the backing strip, line up the top, and smooth down with a soft cloth. No paste, no soaking, no mess. Removable wallpaper is the natural pick for renters in Sydney apartments, Melbourne terraces, and Perth coastal homes. Owned homes can go either way, with both options using the same kid safe wallpaper inks for full bedroom safety.
Putting it up in a rental property
Clean the wall, lift the backing, line up the top, and smooth down with a soft cloth. Two people make it quicker. No soaking, no mess, no damage when you take it down.
Custom Sizing for Every Aussie Kids' Room
Every kids' bedroom in Australia is a slightly different size, so all our prints are sized to your wall measurements. Federation cottages have low ceilings around 2.4 metres. Queenslanders run higher with 3 metre rooms and tall dormer windows. New build apartments in the Gold Coast and Melbourne CBD often have square rooms but tricky alcoves. Send the width and the height in centimetres or millimetres and we print to fit. Awkward features like air conditioner units, picture rails, and dado rails are handled in the print plan, so the design wraps the wall cleanly. Modern children wallpaper and contemporary prints sit happily alongside traditional Aussie home styles too.
Refreshing as kids grow
A toddler obsessed with tractors becomes an eight year old into space, then a tween who wants something calmer. Removable prints handle that. Pull the old design, smooth on the new one, and the room feels new in an arvo.

FAQs
Which materials is best for wallpaper?
Wallpapers are made from standard paper, canvas paper, premium paper, peel and stick materials for durability and style.

What color bedding works with jungle kids room wallpaper?
Soft whites and warm beiges sit most naturally against a jungle print without competing with it. If the wallpaper already has strong greens, keep the bedding quiet, with a plain cream or off-white cotton. Add one small pattern through a cushion or a rug, not on the bed itself.
Does floral wallpaper go with hardwood flooring in a girl's bedroom?
Yes, especially with pale oak or light maple flooring. A soft floral print in pink or pale green warms these woods without making the floor feel too yellow. For darker walnut or smoked oak, pick a floral with cooler tones like dusty blue, and keep the bedding in muted cream so the room stays calm.
Which wall should I put kids wallpaper on in a small bedroom?
The wall behind the bed or crib is usually the best choice. It gives the room a clear focal point without making the space feel smaller, since you mostly see the other three walls when you're in the room. Keep the remaining walls in a flat off-white or the palest tint from the wallpaper so nothing competes.
Will kids wallpaper work in a north-facing bedroom?
Yes, if you pick the color carefully. North-facing rooms get cooler, flatter light throughout the day, so warm wallpapers in peach or buttery yellow sit better than icy blues. A jungle print with plenty of warm brown and ochre also lifts the room and keeps it from feeling dim on overcast afternoons.
Is kids wallpaper safe to use in a rental apartment?
Most of the peel-and-stick options in this range are designed to remove cleanly from painted walls, which makes them well suited to rentals. Check your lease first and take a before photo of the wall. When you move out, peel the panels back slowly from a top corner at a low angle; any small marks usually come off with a damp cloth.
Does kids wallpaper hold up in a bathroom or damp nursery?
A bathroom is a no — constant steam and temperature swings lift the seams over time. A nursery is fine as long as the room is ventilated properly and the wall isn't directly behind a radiator or vent running on high all winter. Wipe light marks with a barely-damp cloth, never a wet sponge, and the paper will keep its finish for years.
Is peel-and-stick as good as traditional pasted wallpaper for a kid's room?
For a kid's room, peel-and-stick is usually the smarter choice because it's faster to install and easier to remove if tastes change. It's also less messy to work with around small children. Traditional pasted wallpaper has a slightly heavier finish and is a solid pick for long-term rooms, but peel-and-stick holds up perfectly well for the three-to-five-year cycle most kids' rooms go through.
Does kids wallpaper work in an older home with original crown molding?
Yes, and it can actually make period rooms feel lighter. Place the mural on the wall between the fireplace alcoves or behind the bed, and leave the crown molding and baseboards in the same soft white. A single feature wall lets the original woodwork read as intentional rather than busy, and keeps the character of the room intact.
