Essential Feng Shui Tips: Children’s Bedrooms
Feng Shui Definitions
- Unlike the master bedroom, it’s a good idea to have family photos in children’s bedrooms. Photographs of parents and grandparents make children feel secure and “watched over” at night.
- Many “hyperactive” children are sleeping in bedrooms with bright red sheets and walls full of action figures. Calm their bedrooms down! Replace bright reds, blues, and yellows with warm pastels and deep rich tones that wrap children in a cozy, tranquil embrace. Bring in serene or happy art that isn’t flying, falling, driving or running around the room.
- Children are often very sensitive to mirrors. If they are not sleeping well, be sure to curtain, cover, or remove mirrors from their bedroom.
- Pets living in children’s bedrooms, such as hamsters, turtles, and fish, should be well taken care of. A neglected pet actually drains the vital Ch’i in a youngster’s bedroom.
- When children share a bedroom, give each child a distinct place to call his or her own, such as a table, closet, or shelf. This keeps each child’s Ch’i individually defined, and helps them learn to respect one another’s space.

Feng Shui observes a direct correlation between the epidemic of hyperactivity in our children and the way their bedrooms are decorated.
