Babiekins Magazine

A Trendsetting Magazine & Online Community For The Trendsetting Child + Parent

Sleepykins // Live Loud & Play

By Leslie Schor, Senior Fashion Editor Leave a Comment

At Babiekins Magazine, but we love REAL rooms. Rooms that you can feel are lived in and loved. Linda of Live Loud Girl, graciously shares her boys’ playroom with us.

In our home, we generally keep things a basic white. White generates a feeling of peace. HOwever, don’t be afraid to introduce a bold color (like the yellow vintage casalino chairs purchased on Ebay). I like to add a mix of styles and finds that are both old and new to create a space that speaks. Your home should reflect the story of your life, and we certainly should’t forget that kid spaces are for kids!
I’m not a big fan of themed rooms. I like when they can grow into a room. Less is more. Kids often have a lot of knick knacks and toys, so I try to find solutions to declutter and make cleaning easy for them (and mommy).This playspace is in our living room and the boys love to be around us. They hardly play in their own rooms. In this play space, everyone can be together, but there is space for independent play. Jack loves to draw and Sam to race with his cars. The table gives enough space to do that!

Sleepykins// Simon's Space

This post comes to us from Anna Whitworth of Chicago.

When we first came up with the idea for Simon’s room, he was just the size of a banana and we had no clue if he was in fact a he or a she. We wanted to keep the room in gender neutral colors. We chose seafoam and white for the accent wall and kept all furniture white as well, timeless, bright and happy.
Once Simon ripened from a squishy little tot into a rambunctious toddler, we felt the need to spruce it down, make it more boyish to fit his little bouncy personality. However, I didn’t want to let the nursery atmosphere go completely, hoping I could bring one more baby into it, in the not too farfetched future.And so the white birch-forest stayed and so did his changing-table-turned-shelf and crib-turned-toddler-bed pieces.

We brought in some items we thought would make it more entertaining, we were inspired by pop-art colors and pop-art toys, the monkey posters and the rocking airplane fit into this circus-y idea, and so do the little collector toys. I really wanted a tepee since I still remember an old one my brother and I had, little campouts in the middle of the room are what toddler dreams are made of. Simon truly loves it, we read bedtime stories in it every night. We also got him a little piano, I naively thought it will be the cutest sight to watch him compose sonatas and etudes, but for now it has served faithfully as a stepping stool. Lately, however he has been more inclined to play it, I am not holding my breath for a great composer in the making though.

Copyright © 2021 · Babiekins Magazine | A Trendsetting Kids' Fashion Magazine and Online Community for Parents and Children Alike · Since the Southern California birth of Babiekins in 2010, the magazine has grown from into an internationally-recognized print publication with a global circulation and now a thriving online community. We are more than a kids’ fashion magazine. We search everywhere for inspiration, and go beyond trends to bring you fashion, style, decor, design, books, DIY, parties, and playthings. Our readers look to us to keep up with the best and most up-to-date concepts in the children’s market worldwide. We have an eye for quirk. We’re high-fashion, but we value whimsy over tradition. Playful childhood is more important to us than making kids into copycat adults. We believe life is beautiful, life is valuable, and life changes when you see it through the eyes of a child. We seek to transcend skin color, language and zip codes and bring out the real, wild, magical creativity inherent in every child. And behind Babiekins is an optimistic team of mothers-turned-editors, working from home, often with our own little babiekins climbing on, under and around the desks. We want to encourage you, and challenge you to see something different — something special — in yourself and in this world we all share. Welcome to Babiekins!
