Dream Spaces: 12 Disney-Worthy Kids’ Rooms

Do you have a tiny princess in your midst? A pint-size pirate-to-be? Many children become so enamored of their favorite animated movies that not only do they watch them over and over, but they also like to pretend that they live in those worlds. These bedrooms — with elaborate decor that calls to mind favorite animated movies and fairy tales — give children another vehicle into that world of imagination. Over-the-top fantasy bedrooms like these aren’t for everyone, but you may find details you’d like to borrow for your little princess’ or adventurer’s room.

The Lion King. In this bedroom, camp has been set up in a setting that recalls the enchanted Africa of Simba, the Lion King. The murals, the curtains, the travel-chest-like furniture and the bedding all contribute to the savanna effect. An extra-tender touch lies in the soft toys on the bed.

Wonder feature: The curtains in the four corners of the room enhance the feeling of sleeping in a tent in the African savanna.
