Feng Shui In Your Child’s Room
By Joy Abrams MA, FSII

Your children are growing, curious, alive, reactive, and creative human beings. They are unique and evolving to reach their complete potential. Your children have their own ideas and their ideas should be respected in creating their space. They spend a third of their early lives in their bedrooms. It is important to keep these facts in mind when you help to create a special room for them. When creating their space always have a feng shui practitioner help you with proper directions and placement.

However, to get started here are some suggestions:
Their bed position is relative to their best direction but should have a view of the door.
Keep the central sector of their room fairly open so that they can play there if they wish.
Have furniture in their room that is their scale.
Bunk beds are restrictive to the child that sleeps on the bottom bunk.
Sleeping under skylights, shelves or beams is not appropriate.
Create screens or separate quarters if two children share a room.
Generally speaking the colors of green and blue are good for a bedroom. However, a feng shui practitioner can do a personal consultation that will tell you what colors would work best for each child.
Always help your children choose artwork that is age appropriate and that would enhance their living experience.
