Top 10 Colourful Mid-Century Modern Goods for Kids

Published on April 14, 2015

Today’s post was so much fun to put together and it was really, really hard to stop at just ten things. This world has some very creative and gifted designers and makers, y’all. It’s hard not to get excited so I just gave up and got really excited instead. Huzzah! Since last week’s roundup was all about black and white Scandinavian style for kids, today I thought I would tip my hat to 10 colourful mid-century modern goods for kids.

So Fresh and So Chic // Top 10 Colourful Mid-Century Modern GIfts for Kids  #midcentyrymodern #giftsforkids #kidsroomdesign #homedecor
1. Parker Red Mid Century Modern Strung Steel Wire Pendant Light
This light has my heart. I love the red, I love the design, and I love how much personality it would bring to a playroom.

2. Touch the Art: Pop Warhol’s Top by Julie Appel
This one’s a real find, guys. A touch and feel book featuring classic works by Warhol, Lichtenstein and more. What a great introduction to some amazing artists.

3. Pantone Colors
If you love design and if you love color, you absolutely must buy this! Buy it for your own bookshelf if you haven’t got any kids. If you do have kids, you’ll have such a great time exploring gradients and shades of every color with them. (Btw, if you’re like me and dying a little every time you spell color without a “u”, there is a British version available with the “u.” Whew!)
SEE ALSO: Pantone Box of Colors: 6 Colours, 6 individual Mini Board Books.

4. Laser Beams and 5. Mixed Lollies II
Inaluxe are an amazing Australian design duo. I own three of their pieces for our home- different from the ones pictured here- but amazing nonetheless. If I had my way, I’d probably own 15. I love them that much, and clearly also have a problem with restraint. But what can you do? If you love something, you love something, amirite? These are perfect for a playroom. What kid wouldn’t love these fun, graphic shapes and colours, and please, a cat with laser beams shooting out of it’s eyes? Sold.

6. Vitra Panton Junior Chair in Orange
I want one in every colour, stat.

7. ZM Home 23″ Tulip Side Table
This is technically a side table, but it’s high enough and large enough that it would make a great place for the kids to sit and colour or do crafts. It also comes in yellow, red, and black! So cute.

8. Little Red Riding Hood Doll by Blita
Not only is this completely adorable, but it can also be customized on the back with a tag and the name of the little person you are buying this for! You can also buy a full set with the wolf and the grandma too! Love.

9. Eames® Hang-It-All, Multicolored
I’ve been wanting this forever and ever. It’s perfect for raincoats, bags and little fedoras.

10. Paper City by Mr. Printables via DesignLifeKids
DesignLifeKids is one of my favourite stores for children’s goods, and its because they carry toys like this adorable foldable paper city. The design, the colours, and such a great concept. Who says kid’s toys have to be horrible plastic noisemakers, right? There’s room for modern design everywhere!

I hope you found this list of 10 mid-century modern goods for kids inspiring!

Until next time,

xo, Naushin

REMEMBER WHEN... // That time I designed a whole b REMEMBER WHEN... // That time I designed a whole bunch of free Printables to decorate your home with and put them up on the blog so you could download them? Yup. They’re still there! 😀 Happy Friday! #sofreshmyhome #freeprints
HOW IT STARTED // Light, bright, white, minimalist HOW IT STARTED // Light, bright, white, minimalist. I kind of miss those days but then again kind of not? I’ve embraced darker desaturated colours like our Navy blue accent wall downstairs and our green home office/guest room upstairs. ❤️ What’s your preference? Do you naturally veer towards colour? 🤔 #sofreshmyhome #navyblueandprettytoo
A IS FOR...? // Tell me what’s on your mind. I’ll go first: A is for Amazing. Because after almost a whole year of remote schooling, it looks like the kids might finally be going back after Spring break! Woo hoo! 💃🏻 #LAlife
WELL, FINALLY. // It’s February! Legit can’t b WELL, FINALLY. // It’s February! Legit can’t believe we made it through the longest January ever. 🙄 I SO wish I was sitting at this table with all of my favourite people right about now. Instead we’re in, well, I think we all know where we all are and have been since March 2020. Oy vey. 🤦🏻‍♀️ BUT it’s my birthday month and I think I’m finally ready to share everything that’s happened since last September including why I dropped out of the One Room Challenge. Stay tuned for that post. It seems like a season of change for so many of us. May Allah keep us all in His protection. 🙏🏼
VIGNETTE LOVE // Colour, texture, planty goodness VIGNETTE LOVE // Colour, texture, planty goodness plus beautiful art by my fave @atticapress. ❤️ Super into this vignette that I shot many moons ago and just came across again in my camera roll. It’s a good day when you discover photo treasures like these, don’t you think? 😍 #sofreshmyhome
DIVERSIONARY TACTICS // It’s #caturdayathome and DIVERSIONARY TACTICS // It’s #caturdayathome and if I focus on Pippa, I can ignore the fact that the kids’ room hasn’t looked this tidy in weeks. Is it just me or is cleaning basically a waste of time during the holidays/pandemic?? 🙈🤷🏻‍♀️ It literally never stays clean! They’re home ALL the time. My mom is very proud of me right now, I’m sure. 😆 #sofreshmyhome
SHADOWS AND LIGHT // If I had to choose one phrase SHADOWS AND LIGHT // If I had to choose one phrase to remember 2020 by it would be “Sharp contrasts”. We had our fair share of hard to believe moments and lots of jagged peaks and dips. BUT 2021 promises to be an entirely new chapter and I can’t wait to share everything with you soon! Happy New Year, friends! In the Year That Felt Like 10 Years, can you believe we finally made it to the end?? 😱🥳👏🏼#sofreshmyhome #greenrooms
WFH GLOW UP // Yes, for this photo we shall preten WFH GLOW UP // Yes, for this photo we shall pretend Andrew lounges on this work chair with a leopard print throw artfully draped across his legs. 🤣 But seriously tho, having this cabinet to style has been so much fun whenever our bedroom needs a little pick-me-up! #sofreshmyhome

FLASHBACK TO... // The days when the dining table FLASHBACK TO... // The days when the dining table was for actual eating and styling and not for remote schooling, bags of school supplies, and the occasional cat. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤣 How is your work/school-at-home space looking right now? #sofreshmyhome
