Children are special in their own unique, and it is rational for every parent to help them preserving their peculiarity by nurturing them under the right setting. The appropriate kind of environment that every child needs for his/her development is one that permits him/her a great deal of freedom, and also triggers the child's intuitiveness. And this takes us into the kid's room; what are those things a child should have in the room.

Here, we share seven (7) of the essential things your child's room should be equipped with:

1. Books: Well, it is often said that 'readers are leaders' but the practice [of picking a book to read] shouldn't be left till later in life; you can help your child become an avid reader right from the early years. Again, books- especially story books- could spike up a child's imaginative prowess.
2. Wall Decals: Wall decals no doubt come good as ideal decorating accessories. However, you can probably fix decals that are quite symbolic to your child on the wall. This could mean having to involve the child in the selection process. Wallpapers are not a bad choice either.
3. Handcrafted Stuff: Handmade articles [such as knitted bags made from cotton yarn or beaded articles] are also wonderful additions in a kid's room. Aside the functional purpose these items could serve in respective ways, they can also inspire your kids to make their own handcrafts.
4. Teddy bear: Your child might sometimes be in need of a 'companion' to cuddle or toy with. Thus, a teddy bear- or maybe any other stuffed toy- should be available for such occasions.
5. Clock: This is often overlooked most times but having one in place- in your kid's room- can subtly inculcate time consciousness into your kids as they grow.
6. Art supplies: Along with the handcrafted articles, you can also provide some art supplies in your child's room. This could probably encourage the kids to engage in drawing and painting at their leisure.
7. Bed: And finally bed...this is as straightforward as it reads. After the day activities, every child ought to retire into a bed that ensure a pleasant night rest.
