This week on The Block, all the teams are working to create two kids-themed guest rooms, and every team has a different idea of what they want that to look like. But many fans have been left scratching their heads after seeing the plans for the finished rooms.

Each team’s designs have been shared on social media, and, unsurprisingly, the viewers have a lot to say about them. While most of the teams have created rooms that could be adapted to any age, something that many fans have pointed out is that they aren’t really “kids’” rooms.

Some viewers have also been left confused by the fact that Han and Can have a nursery and a teenager’s room, with one viewer writing, “I think having a nursery and a teenage room is stupid given that most families don’t have an age gap that big between their children. Also, babies’ age and having a cloud built into the wall will only be appropriate for so long.”

Han and Can won a challenge with a cloud bead head earlier this week and are using it in the nursery, with one confused viewer writing, “[House] 2 seems most like children’s rooms, but I think the winning challenge bed head is wasted with the cot.”

“I wouldn’t say any of them are ‘kids’ rooms,” another said. “None of them have taken any risks. These could be guest rooms.”

“They’re all horrible as kids’ bedrooms. Very uninviting for a child,” someone else wrote.

Many people also thought that the rooms featured too much beige for kids’ rooms, with one person writing, “So much beige again…ick.”

“Absolutely none of them?!” one person wrote in response to the caption asking which room was their favourite. “Unless all these kids are retiring? Where’s the colour and the fun and the creativity? All they wanna do is make sure they’re all squeaky clean for the Daylesford buyers market, which goes against the challenge, so to me it’s contradictory.”

“I am going with [House] 3 as I believe it suits a range of ages, boys and girls,” someone else said of Britt and Taz’s rooms. “They could all do with a bit more colour, no more brown!”

“Very uninspiring,” yet another said.

“It looks like Houses 2 & 3 have the right colour palette that suits the area!” someone else said. “Not too much dark as Daylesford is very dark in winter. It needs light inside not more darkness.”

“Since when do kids have huge beds?” one person questioned, adding that she thought the colours in the rooms were “ordinary”.

However, one person replied saying, “Having run a realestate firm 20 years unfortunately one of the biggest changes that most buyers expect now is every child gets their own room and most rooms need to be big enough to fit a double or queen bed.”

Others complimented Robby and Mat from House 5, with one person saying, “I actually think that House 5’s approach is the smartest. The potential buyers might not want rooms dedicated to being kids rooms.”

“House 5 is definitely what that area is all about, they are clearly doing their research and know what the buyers want and need,” another agreed. “The area is full of LGBTQIA+ people and older people that are retired, which means you have to think about how a granny would decorate a room for her grandchildren when they come visit.”
