Colors for kids range from bright primaries, which stimulate and entertain, to soft tones that help them rest. These 12 palettes work for kids' rooms, birthday parties, school supplies, toys and family brands.
Tap a color to copy its hex code. The pencil icon opens the palette in the editor so you can change it.
In play areas, primary colors stimulate. In the bedroom, light, muted tones that help kids rest are a better choice.
If you paint walls beige, light gray or warm white, you'll only need to change textiles and decor as your child grows.
For educational materials, make sure colors have good contrast and don't rely on color alone to tell things apart, since some kids are color-blind.
Soft tones like sage green, light blue, pale yellow or beige help kids rest. Bright colors can be used in details or play areas.
Neutral tones like sage, beige and soft yellow are popular today, along with classic light blue and pink.
Young children tend to prefer bright, saturated colors like red, yellow and blue because they're easier for them to tell apart.
