Diana Stroh, at Dreams and Wishes, children's interiors, is a qualified interior designer with experience in domestic interiors. Here are her top tips for successfully decorating kid's rooms.

Firstly, make safety a priority. Fit socket covers, keep electric cables secure and avoid climbing aids near windows.

Avoid heavily themed designs that will date quickly and require costly updates.

Make plans for storage at an early stage. Try to keep it simple and easy for kids to use.

Consider a lighting scheme that can cater for daytime activities as well as night time reassurances.

Finally, choose surfaces that are robust and easy to keep clean.
