Peer comment(s):
neutral Johannes Gleim : Would work with verbs like 'create a' cosy place/room, but this was not meant in the headline.

German term (edited): Wohlfühlraum Kinderzimmer

A feel-good space for your child

https://www.google.com/search?q="a feel-good space for "&oq=...

1) Seven chars longer, but still manageable.
2) I think the second person possessive 'your' adds personal appeal.
3) Wohlfühl > feel-good (OK in marketing context and sticks closer to the original)

FEEL-GOOD SPACES FOR KIDS
Same number of chars as the original (25)! Depends on how tolerant you are of 'kids' for 'children'.
Peer comment(s):
agree Johannes Gleim : 'feel-good place or space' is sufficient. For context translation you can add 'for childen'.

Petite retreat

You probably can't use this, but it does at least fulfil the short and snappy remit.
