Exotic jungle animals like tigers, lions, elephants, giraffes and monkeys are a fun and delightful theme for a toddler girl’s bedroom. A jungle theme or safari theme is not only a great way to introduce your little one to the wild creatures of this earth, but it will also lend the room a sense of adventure. And when you’re two or more, you should have a room that encourages adventures and exploration. To complement the jungle theme, contemporary style furnishings were selected, because lines and profiles are simple and refreshing.

To set the mood, a palette of greens was chosen from a selection of colors by Sherwin Williams. Both lighter and deeps greens were chosen for their potential to conjure images of jungle foliage, monkeys swinging from trees and zebras emerging from the trees at twilight to drink at the local watering hole. These colors will also provide the ideal canvas for wild animal stencils, jungle themed wallpaper borders or framed pictures of jungle animals.

Some parents are reluctant to invest in a toddler bed because the “shelf” life is so short. But the DaVinci Elizabeth II Convertible Wood Toddler Bed in Natural will easily get her at least to her teen years, because it can be used as a full size bed once she’s no longer a toddler. You’ll have you’re pick of crib bedding with a jungle theme or wild animal theme because animal patterns are plentiful and varied.

The two-tone finish of the South Shore Furniture Newbury Collection White Nightstand has a contemporary appearance that blends well with the toddler bed.

The Young America by Stanley 2nd Nature Double Dresser in Light Wood Finish matches the top of the nightstand but has a contemporary light wood finish that works well with the mix of white and natural furniture. Planning ahead doesn’t hurt; she’ll “grow” into the double dresser sooner than you’ll probably want her to.

In addition to the basic bedroom furniture, she’ll need a place to paint and do other creative things. Storage is important in a toddler’s room, especially cubes, drawers or bins that are easy for little hands to open and close. Creatively designed storage bins, bookcases and cubbies are ideal ways of hiding clutter and keeping your little one neat and organized.

Don’t forget the finishing touches. Jungle themed accessories such as rugs, table lamps and wall art are very popular, so they will be relatively easy to find.
