Kid's Room Furnishings & Items

The Kids' Room houses all the specialized furnishings for children, such as Cribs and toys. If you'd expect to find it in a kid's bedroom, it'll be found here.
Beds and Cribs
The Beds category in this room type are not actually special. Sure, a single bed is all a kid will need but there's no race car bed for the little tyke to sleep in. For the little ones, you'll need a crib. The most expensive crib ($425) doesn't provide more energy, only comfort. So, the cheaper variety ($275) is probably the best value. When your little one grows up be sure to get them a good bed like you would for an adult so that they can have more time during the day to get things done, like learning for later.
Kids' Specials
The children's furniture section is where you'll find the high chair for feeding babies in the kitchen. You'll also find potty chairs for doing potty training when the kid's a toddler. These are both necessary for raising a kid well. To read more about raising babies, head to the Parenting - Raising Babies and Toddlers section of the guide.
Toys
Toys can be enjoyed by ages up to children and Childish adult Sims. The Wugglesworth Snuggles Bear is a must-buy for placing in your baby's crib. If they sleep with it, the kid can get a mood boost. The Sunnybrook Home Dollhouse is the most expensive toy, costing $625 and providing 7 fun for a single kid. This, along with the toy boxes and bear are the only "pure fun" toys available to kids in The Sims 3. Everything else in the toys category will serve a purpose later by helping the toddler or child to learn a skill. Little kids can even buy an oven here to help them learn to cook.
Kids Decor
The Kids' painting section here doesn't have any unique art for children's rooms, but the Children's Decor section offers a few selections. Items like a Train Set and Space Mobile will add that extra touch to make it look like a kid's bedroom. Keep in mind that children gain lifetime happiness too so giving them a nice place to play that's well decorated will give them more points available later in life.
More fun objects for kids can be found in the Outdoors section.
