10 best animal nursery wallpaper themes

Safari

Safari nursery wallpaper is a fun piece of decor for a family that loves to explore the world. Murals featuring towering tropical trees and savanna animals like a giraffe and elephant are a popular modern choice for a nursery feature wall.

This popular watercolor design pairs well with neutral colors and natural decor materials, and this vintage elephant etching brings a sophisticated, grown-up feel to a unisex nursery room.

Woodland

Woodland nursery wallpaper is an exciting way to create a forest theme in your baby’s room. With a mural scene across a feature wall, it feels like the cute woodland animals are all around, and makes the room seem more spacious!

This is your ideal theme if you’re a fan of rustic and Boho style decor, and want to decorate a gender-neutral nursery room that looks natural and outdoorsy.

Mountain

Mountains make a charming piece of nursery wall decor, drawn with simple block colors and wondrous large- scale scenery you can get lost in. It’s also an easy theme to decorate around – the wallpaper does all the styling for you. 

Kids will be king of the castle above the mountain tops, and these two murals are charming ideas for a nursery, including adorable alpacas in a desert and mountain range landscape.

Jungle

Pick a jungle nursery wallpaper full of cute animal art and cartoon foliage to make your baby’s room a more immersive space. Anyone will have lots of fun picking out soft jungle animal toys, cushions, and bedding to decorate with this modern theme. 

A tipi or little daybed like this one as part of a playroom is a lovely way to make the most of the room’s nooks and crannies, too, as well as give the space a stylishly Boho look.

Ocean

Transform your little one’s nursery from a simple room to an underwater odyssey. An ocean nursery theme comes with lots of ideas for a wallpaper. A popular theme for baby girls is mermaid wallpaper, and a pirate-themed room is beloved for baby boys. These are our top ocean animal wallpaper picks for nurseries.
