25 Lighting Ideas for Your Kids' Room

The right light fixture can help visually divide a large, shared bedroom, like this midcentury space by B. Pila Design Studio. The designers used inexpensive paper lanterns in a range of colors and sizes to section off the room and create a delightful focal point.

Nightlights can comfort small children when they're tucked into bed and help keep the monsters away. Pinky the ghost from Pac-Man was the perfect choice for this '80s-themed bedroom by J&J Design Group.

Accent lighting should make a bold impact. In this eclectic girls' room by designer Tara Eaton, the table lamp's "branches" and mustard yellow hue pop against the white walls and coordinate with the bedding.

Drum pendant lights are a great way to fill out a larger room and update the space for a teenager. Notice how designer Erinn Valencich went with a bright orange shade to tie the room's citrusy color palette together.
