These boxes should be easy for your child to use, this will help your child learn to tidy up after themselves and help add to the minimalist feel of the space.

When using the Scandi philosophy in a child’s bedroom, you should look to make their bed the centrepiece of the space. Having a unique bed will get them excited for bedtime every night and re-enforce that the bedroom is a space primarily for sleeping. Fun bed ideas could include bunk beds designed like log cabins, beds built like tents or even a wooden bed designed like a small Viking boat.
