Good resolutions in the children's room
Good resolutions in the nursery: 3 ideas for the new year
Many of us start the new year with good resolutions: More exercise, more vegetables and less looking at our smartphones. That all sounds wonderful - but will you be able to implement them? We have three ideas to help you with your New Year's resolutions at the start of the year.
1. Clearing out the children's room
Especially at Christmas time, a lot of new things have piled up in the children's room. Toys, books and clothes urgently need to undergo a critical inventory:
- What do we want to keep? What do we like to play with?
- Which toys or children's books have we "outgrown"? Which clothes have simply become too small?
- Which things remain unused because they are simply not interesting for your child?
We spoke to tidying expert Jasmine Dünker and put together the best tips for tidying up with children for you.
Every item gets a home
As soon as you have got rid of all unused, unloved or simply outdated items, everything that can stay will be given a permanent place. This way, you can finally achieve a sustainable organisation in the children's room.
Our tip: The IKEA TROFAST shelving system is a real storage space miracle in the children's room thanks to its boxes. It becomes even more perfect with organiser stickers with symbols - so even the little ones know which toy belongs in which box.
Tip: A place of honour for favourites
Of course, little treasures don't have to disappear in a box - our favourite things are skilfully staged. Like our favourite Tonie figures, for example, which can of course be given a special place in the children's room. One of the easiest and most popular IKEA hacks for Tonies is to place the little friends on picture ledge. With the matching wall tattoo, the DIY Tonie shelf becomes an absolute eye-catcher!
2. Redesigning your child's room for the new year
New year - new nursery? The Christmas decorations are out and we're ready for a breath of fresh air in our home. Of course, there can't and shouldn't be a complete makeover every year. For heaven's sake! But a few small touches are welcome to create a new feeling. This could be a new pillowcase that makes the couch shine in fresh splendour. Or a splash of colour in the children's room. Fancy a little inspiration from Limmaland?
Wall decoration creates a new feeling
A small splash of colour can have a big impact! And so that you don't have to struggle with paints, brushes and masking tape for your New Year's decoration project, we make it very easy for you: wall tattoos in a wide variety of sizes, shapes and colours will transform your child's room without much effort!
Turn old into new
Do you perhaps have used furniture in your child's room that you no longer like and would like to replace with something new? We have a better idea: why not try an upcycling project? With a little preparation, you can easily paint IKEA furniture. Our tip: It's even easier with furniture foil - just cut it to size and stick it on.

3. More family time in the new year
The Christmas madness is over, we've left the old year behind us and are starting a new one motivated and relaxed. And this time, we've made a firm resolution: To finally reduce screen time and spend more quality time with our loved ones.
Board games with the family
It's especially nice when everyone sits at the table together and concentrates on the game in a completely analogue way - preferably with grandma and grandpa, of course.
Reading aloud and cuddling as an evening ritual
Reading books together has long been part of the evening ritual for many families. A cosy way to wind down from the many impressions of the day and immerse yourself in imaginative stories. Especially cosy: simply close your eyes while reading aloud and fall asleep.
Craft ideas for family time
Homemade is the best! With a little creativity, you can make your own games, decorations and much more. And you can spend some relaxing time together. Just browse through our numerous craft ideas.
