A child's room is where Christmas magic feels biggest. A few soft lights, a mini tree and some cozy textiles can turn a regular bedroom into a place they will love to wake up in.
These ideas are kid-friendly and easy to take down in January. Always keep lights, small ornaments and anything with a cord out of reach of young children, and check product safety information before you buy.
