Let’s Talk Hooks: 5 Smart Ways to Use Wall Hooks in Kids’ Rooms

Hooks, but make them fun.

Kids’ rooms are chaotic. Between school bags, hats, jackets, and that one cape they must wear daily—stuff ends up everywhere. But here’s the secret: the humble wall hook is your best friend. And when it’s shaped like a dinosaur or rainbow? Your kids actually want to use it. Wild, right?

We’ve rounded up 5 clever ways to use timber wall hooks to bring order (and joy) to your little one’s space.

1. The “Get Yourself Ready” Zone

Set up a hook near the door with their daily essentials: hat, bag, jacket, or backpack. Giving your child a dedicated spot (at their height!) makes mornings smoother and builds independence. Bonus points if you let them pick their hook design—alphabet hooks are great for this.

2. The Dress-Up Station

Turn a blank wall into a mini costume rack by lining up a few hooks in a row. Capes, tutus, fairy wings—they’re all more likely to be used (and hung up again!) when they have a home that looks cute too.

3. Tiny Art Gallery Vibes

Use wall hooks to hang up favourite tote bags filled with craft supplies or roll up artwork with string and clip it from a hook. Suddenly, “I made this for you” drawings become part of the decor.

🧡 Best picks: Stick Ups for lightweight artwork

4. Bedside Hooks for the Littles

Not enough space for a bedside table? Pop a hook near the bed to hang a little fabric basket or pouch with books, a torch, or bedtime essentials. No more late-night Lego foot injuries. You're welcome.
