Create a Gender-Neutral Bedroom for Babies and Toddlers πŸ›οΈπŸ’–

Matt from Matt Wineera - Thats Real Estate with Matt Wineera

Once upon a time, it was all about pink for girls and blue for boys. While that might still be popular, many parents now prefer a gender-neutral approach when decorating their baby's or toddler's bedroom.

Several influences have contributed to this trend. Parents are moving away from obvious gender colour biases and are instead inspired by interior styles like the Scandi look, which offers a softer neutral palette. So, instead of hot pink and cobalt blue walls, you might find soothing dove greys accented with icy turquoise, pale apple green, soft yellow, and light wooden tones. 🌿✨

Another exciting trend is using bold colors like black and primary shades. These colours are still quite gender-neutral but offer a stronger look, perhaps more suited for a toddler’s or young child’s bedroom. Don't hold backβ€”your children are only young once. Their lives should be filled with colour, fun, and creativity. 🎨🌟

A bedroom with neutral-coloured walls and bolder accents in bedding and accessories can easily grow with your child without needing to redecorate. Plus, it makes the room versatile for other uses in the future. πŸ›οΈπŸ”„

An easy and eye-catching painted feature wall can visually anchor the bed in a bedroom, creating a focal point that adds charm and character to the space. πŸŽ¨πŸ’«

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?

Walk around the Mount on Tuesdays

Ewa from Tauranga City

Last Tuesday we have had two extra people who joined us for this walk after I have promoted it here in Neighbourly. I hope we will have you two again and some more tomorrow! Weather forecast is reasonable - we might be lucky to finish our walk before the rain comes.
