What color is Sherwin Williams Child's Play?
Sherwin Williams Child's Play SW 6845 is a light, softened pink with a noticeable lavender cast that keeps it from reading overly sweet. Its pale value gives walls an airy look, while the muted saturation makes the color feel more powdered than bright. In daylight, Child's Play shows as a gentle rosy pink; cooler lighting can pull its lilac undertone forward, while warm bulbs make it appear slightly blushier. It suits bedrooms, nurseries, dressing areas, and powder rooms, especially when paired with crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, or soft gray textiles. For a more defined use, try this shade on a single accent wall or painted furniture against warm off-white walls.

LRV of Child's Play
Child's Play has an LRV of 57.51% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 57.51%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
