5 Unique Ideas for Kids Playrooms


If all kids have one thing in common is that they have a lot of stuff!

Where does all this stuff come from?

Birthday parties, holiday gifts, school projects and hand-me-downs are responsible for childhood fun, but are also the culprit for clutter!

Artwork, toys, crayons, costumes, blocks, and everything in between can be stored and organized beautifully in a dedicated kids playroom.

Here are five unique ideas to quickly and easily create fun and functional kids playroom!

1. Designating different parts of the rooms to specific activities can help keep the clutter to a minimum. For example, add a particular table for arts and crafts, create a media centre for TV and video games, create a space with a lounge chair and bookshelf for reading.

2. Storage is key! Cubbies, shelving, colorful boxes, clear plastic storage boxes, bookshelves and wall shelves can help keep things organized and clutter-free. Be sure to label all boxes so when your little ones are cleaning up; they know where to put each toy or activity.

3. Utilize space. If you have a small closet that isn't ideal or could be used more strategically, remove the closet door, paint the inside and create a space for legos, crafts or homework.

4. Playrooms are an opportunity for personality and bold colors! Don't be shy when decorating! If you don't want to go crazy with paint, choose bold color throw pillows, blankets, area rugs, and artwork.

5. Get creative with the walls! A great way to stay current with kids interests and age groups is to invest in adhesive wall decals, framed art, and timeless custom pieces like their school artwork or custom wooden letters of their initials.

Kids playrooms are a fun and creative project! Remember; purpose, inspiration and practicality all make for a perfect playroom.

Don't forget to de-clutter your home periodically. If you are holding onto old, broken or no longer age-appropriate toys and games, either get rid of them, donate them, sell them, or pass them on to friends and family.

Make space for new memories!

When selling your home, be sure to keep your kids room in tip-top shape!

Not every buyer has little ones, so keeping the room clear of clutter and super organized allows potential buyers to picture a study, office or library, and that can help make your home stand out on the market!
