Kids' Wallpaper

Picking wallpaper for a child's bedroom can be a challenge. Do you go down the traditional colour-coding route? Will it be trains or cowboys? Fairies or flowers? They might love that favourite cartoon character, but don't forget... you have to look at it every day too. There are some fantastic childrens' wallpapers out there, it's just a case of knowing where to look. From independent designers, like Katie Bourne and her beautiful illustrations to classic kids' motifs at John Lewis, vintage inspired at Cath Kidston or something completely out of the ordinary from Wall Library, we give you our pick of the papers that you and your kids will love. Need more inspiration? See all our wallpaper ideas, plus kids' room inspiration galore.

  PiP Flowers In The Mix

• Roddy & Ginger Logpile Wallpaper

  Think outside the box when it comes to kids wallpapers; they don't need to be pink or blue or covered in trains or fairies. We love this bold log design, which embraces the latest trend for wood-inspired interiors.

  Logpile Wallpaper, £52 per roll at Roddy & Ginger

• Beastly Chronicles Cornfield

  We love products that tell a story and this quirky paper does exactly that - seven stories in fact, all by Edwardian novelist Saki (also known as H.H. Munro) and translated into pictorial form by designer Emma Molony. Gorgeous for a kids' room.

  Beastly Chronicles Cornfield Yellow Wallpaper, £75 per roll at Bodie & Fou
