Is my daughters room babyish? - Page 3 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

She has the perfect 7 year old room!!!! I wouldn't change a thing. Only make changes if she wants to, not because of someone else. It's her space, and she should have it the way she wants it. Some people just want kids to grow up way too fast. I give your daughter a

And she keeps it nice and neat too!!!!

Thanks everyone, my 7 year old is a little immature, and it is my fault completely. So I thought maybe my friend was right, but you all made me feel so much better.

When I say immature I mean it. I am in no way upset by it. I totally baby her. I have a daughter that will be 12 next month and she has grown way to fast and has always been very mature for her age, so I try to keep Brianna little. Sometimes this is good and sometimes bad. Her teacher says she is a little immature but not to a point I should be concerned.

Anyway, I just thought I would ask, I wasn't sure if it was just me trying to keep her a baby or if my friend was just nuts. (she's nuts)

Thanks again, I knew I could count on you all....

Not, I do that. I clean her room every morning when she leaves for school.

Don't redecorate it just yet, I mean, I'm 16 and I'd like that room!!!

I'm 26 and I'd love to live in that room. My guest bedroom at my house is done in purple and pinks & teals and has stuffed animals all over it. I refuse to grow up.

I think it's suitable for her age.

I think it's adorable. There is only one problem that I can see. The kid has NOTHING to play with!!!

I had to go back and look at what I thought was wallpaper. Is that what you fingerpainted? I love interesting wall finishes and have glazed a few rooms in my house. How did you do the fingerpainting?

Anyway she is only 7 I would have been lucky to have a room like that when I was 7 . it looks perfect.

Looks like a little girls room to me, too. I wish I had a room like that when I was 7! I had to share with my grandmother, so didn't get any girly stuff in my room.

Main thing is, if your daughter likes it, keep it. Let her pick out a new comforter and don't worry about what other people think. She has to live in it, and she should be the one who decides when she wants it changed.

I think it's perfect! It reminds me of my daughter's room. She loves Hello Kitty!

StewiesMom · 03-17-2006, 09:51 AM

I think it's very cute. I spy a Rainbow Brite

The only problem I would see is if she doesn't like it.

sneri13 · 03-17-2006, 10:24 AM

I think the room is just perfect for a 7 year old. My daughter is in the fourth grade and loves her pink room. She has her american girl dolls on a pink shelf/book case. Her Hello Kitty alarm clock., HK phone, and HK TV. I think we have to have everything Hello Kitty makes. Ask your daughter how she feels. But It looks like a girls room to me.

Yes the walls are what I finger painted and it didn't take long at all.

I painted the room white and then painted pink and yellow finger swipes one direction and then green and purple then opposite direction. All pastel colors, but I did my nephews room in primary colors and just did them further apart.
I got my inspiration from a comforter I bought her from JCPenney's. A month after I finished her room she got sick and puked all the comforter. I have a week stomack and my husband was out of town for the weekend and my house keeper doesn't do laundry so I just pitched it.

I love it!! Reminds me of my room growing up!!

Oh good, another mother who never developed "puke tolerance". I could clean up anything but not vomit. I gag and if I'm not quick...there's twice the amount to clean up

Ewwww.

Btw, I love Hello Kitty. I think I loved her more than my daughter ever did

yorkiemom1970 · 03-17-2006, 11:14 AM

I love it. My daughter is almost 9 but she has many of the same things in her room as your daughter , add a play station 2 to the picture and a bigger bed for her friends to stay over, and they pretty much have the same thing going there!

I also love the little yorkie head peeking in the side of the last picture!

...and she still picks Disney Princesses...so I will enjoy and cherish the innocence while I can.
