For families with young kids, decorating a home can be daunting. Lauren relies on kid-friendly fabrics, slipcovers and plenty of attractive storage. "Don’t give up just because you have kids," she says. "It’s not an excuse, just a challenge to rise above."

A fresh spirit can also be brought in through leaf prints, as Lauren from Pure Style Home has done in her boy's bedroom. The lively print works perfectly with the colors of the room and the graphic rug design.

Create a space where they can dream. If beside the window is the best position for your child's bed, dress your windows in double layers to delay the sunrise. Comfortable bedding and blackout window treatments help your wee ones to get a good night's rest and decrease morning crankiness.

Choose classic patterns instead of trendy, kid-centric ones. Your little guy is going to start growing fast; choose classic patterns, like stripes or leaf motifs, which will evolve with him instead of eventually feeling too juvenile. You’ll appreciate both money and time saved in the long run.

Across the room, the big boy bed also serves as a cozy daybed.See the rest of this homeMore bedrooms that grow with your child

Daybeds, by design, are generally placed lengthwise against a wall. They’re another great option for kids' rooms, as they keep the space open and are a good transition bed after the crib.

12. Houzzers loved the idea of putting a chic daybed in a nursery or toddler's room. Not only is it a great space for parents to relax while reading or playing with their child, but it can also be a good transition bed after the crib. Houzz users also bookmarked this photo for the kelly green textiles and the fun wall art.

A bed with built-in drawers is perfect for kids' toys or in an office that has to double as a guest room. In an office, you can stash extra file folders and envelopes in one drawer and guest linens in the other.

9. Think ahead.It's easy to put too much emphasis on the stage your child is in right now, even though we all know they grow so fast. Save yourself time and money by thinking ahead and making a few design decisions that will pay off in the long run. Choose classic and basic over cutesy and cartoony for pieces that will stay in the room for some time, like lamps, curtains and rugs. And consider versatility. I have been seeing more and more daybeds in kids' rooms lately, and I love it. You can put one in an infant's room and use it to rest on during nighttime feedings, then transition it to a toddler bed when it's time to move out of the crib. In fact, if it's a twin-size daybed, it could work for your child all the way into the teen years, and it usually comes with a trundle made for sleepovers.

The little touch. Ikea has great textiles. These curtains are made from Ikea fabric but are masquerading as true originals.

Dazzle with a rug. This green striped rug punctuates the botanical pattern in the curtain, while the black furniture and frames anchor the room. Notice how the chartreuse in the rug is picked up again in the bedding and how the black bed sets them both off.
