Cover a wall with a strip of painted metal sheeting. This becomes the canvas for magnet art. Provide them with flat magnets and blank stickers.

Kids room decor can actually help them to see the path towards their goals, and motivate them to strive for excellence.

Let's take the example of a kid who wants to become an astronaut. She requires to see how what she does now will affect her future, and how she can work to realize that dream.
You could decorate a wall mural to assist her visualize the process. Paint the wall to look like a beautiful space-scape, with the Milky Way as a path she walks on to reach her prize.  Paint a space shuttle and astronaut space walking beside it, as the prize at the end of the Milky Way path. 

Then, along the Milky Way path, stagger a few small cork boards covered in black felt. On each one, put a representation of some thing she must do to reach her goal. In this case, that could be excelling in math, becoming healthy and strong, and developing good communication and interpersonal skills.  On one felt covered cork board, hang photos of organic vegetables and good sources of protein. Include diagrams of exercises she should do to build muscle and increase flexibility. Be sure to add a cartoon of her sleeping soundly, as that's an crucial part of staying healthy. If she's as well young to do serious exercises, then have a photo of her brushing her teeth. On the next felt covered cork board, hang the multiplication tables, or what ever her next challenge is to learn in her math class.
On the last felt covered cork-board, hang photos of her doing an activity that requires cooperation, a photo of her helping a younger child with kindness, and a photo of her listening with fully focused attention.

When your child can see the connection between the choices they make now, and the dreams they have for their future, they will be motivated to do the best they can. They will also have hope, which is crucial to their development on every level. Kids room decor is a powerful tool for molding their minds. Use it wisely.    

Kids room decor is the art of keeping their mess at a minimum. Let's face it, you kids room will never look like an army barrack, and shouldn't, but you can get on top of the mess that is driving you crazy.
It's all about creative storage. When the bits and pieces are up and out of your way, cleaning is simple, easy, and quick.

For instance, a big toy chest on wheels is easy to roll out of the way when you clean the floor. When open, it's low enough for toddlers to reach. At clean up time, you can institute a game where they see who can get the most toys into the chest. Make it a race, and offer prizes, like stickers. Toddlers love to put small things into larger things (that's why your VCR is broken ; ), so use this to your advantage. Institute games of laundry basket ball, where throwing laundry into the basket is target practice. As your child grows, mount the basket higher up the wall. This will keep them interested in continuing to hone their skills, and the laundry won't be mistaken for a carpet.

Book shelves should be cleared of books your kids no longer enjoy, so there is space to put away their old favorites and current challenges. By using lots of dividers in the shelves, you need not wrestle with long domino like rows of books every time you want to put one away. When it's easier to put them away, it's easier to convince kids to do so. 

You can use the plastic containers from various food items to set up storage for game pieces. If your kids get into doing puzzles with many pieces, have them always start that on a piece of cardboard. That way, you can move the whole thing when you need to clean up, with out ruining the kids' work and enticing their wrath. When they finish the puzzle, you can glue it to the cardboard and hang it on the wall. They get pride from seeing their own accomplishments, and proof of their own perseverance.
