Children are always the center of attention. Parents pay special attention to their health, nutrition, and education. And, of course, you need to take care of the child’s leisure time. A children's playroom is an important aspect and the best option in the development of a growing child, because the child needs to put his energy somewhere. And if this energy is not reset in time and the baby’s movements are limited, then this moving force is difficult to curb and control. As a result, this leads to a violation of the child’s psyche, to hysterics, anger and general negativity. But very little is needed - to equip the kids with a children’s playroom or at least a comfortable play area, where they will be safe for others and for themselves to spend their leisure time in outdoor active games.
How to make a playroom at home: learning design principles
The room is intended for children, so the interior must meet several important requirements. Basic principles:
- Safety: furniture with sharp corners and protruding elements should be avoided.
- Ergonomics: it is necessary to place furniture and gaming equipment so that nothing interferes with free movement around the room.
- Reliability: it is important that all structures in the room are durable and can easily support the weight of the child.
- Attractiveness: You need to create a cozy themed environment that will arouse the child’s interest.
It is important to ensure that the room has everything necessary for comfortable games, but at the same time the space is not overloaded. You should not include items that are already in the main children's room. It is important to remember that the gaming room is intended primarily for entertainment.

Design of walls, floors and ceilings in a playroom: looking for successful solutions
The first step on the path to an exclusive interior is the search for optimal finishing options. You can be creative and implement unconventional ideas. Let's talk about how interesting it is to decorate the walls, ceiling and floor.
Walls
The walls can be covered with wallpaper with a pattern or painted. It is not necessary to make surfaces monochrome - experiments with shades are quite acceptable in entertainment areas. It is better to take light colors as a basis and complement them with muted bright colors.
Advice! You can create unique thematic paintings on the wall. Interior painting is a fashion trend that will ideally form the basis of the design.
Ceiling
Curly ceilings with colored elements are an excellent solution for a games room. A more universal option is laconic tension structures. This design is ideal if the room originally had a low ceiling.
Floor
The main requirement for flooring is safety. Most often, designers give preference to parquet. Natural patterns, pleasant surfaces and warm colors will highlight the cozy atmosphere.
Another solution is carpeting. It is better to lay a plain one. It harmonizes perfectly with any decoration and decor.

Elegant wall decor in combination with delicate and lovely decorations or furniture will help to form a real concept of beauty and aesthetics in a girl.
Furniture and other attributes for a game room: creating a comfortable environment
The number and type of furnishings will depend on the size of the room. If the room is small, the most necessary parts are enough. Options:
- Furniture for storage: chests of drawers, cabinets, racks.
- Leisure furniture: sofas and armchairs.
- Tables and chairs.
Designers try to include items that a child can use independently. For example, wardrobes with sliding doors, chests of drawers, low shelving. To avoid accidental injury, it is important to ensure that all products are securely installed.
It is better to place furniture items closer to the walls so that the central space is free for entertainment. In the middle of the room you can place a slide, a ball pit, a miniature labyrinth, a dollhouse and other devices for children's activities.
You can organize a corner for sports in the room. Suitable equipment: wall bars, horizontal bars, mini exercise machines, treadmill. If a child is interested in a specific sport, it is worth reflecting these preferences in the environment.
Furniture and accessories for a game room
Advice! If you have a playroom for teenagers in your home, you can add a desk and a chair with a strong back to the decor. Shelves and cabinets for placing equipment will also be useful.
Preschooler's corner
The preschooler's place is characterized by a playful orientation. His personal space should correspond to his hobbies, character and interests; it should be bright, colorful, functional and safe.
The preschooler's children's area should include places for storing toys, playing games and developing activities.
Sports section
To ensure the physical activity of a growing child, it is advisable to purchase a sports corner. You can easily organize it yourself. Swings, horizontal bars, rope ladder, gymnastic rings, wall bars - all these are constant attributes of a sports playground in a spacious apartment or house.
A sports facility can be either in the form of a whole complex or in the form of a separate attribute.
Game corner
The main type of activity of a preschooler is play activity. Therefore, when designing the baby’s area, it is necessary to pay special attention to the area that is intended for games and entertainment.
Corner for two
For small one-room apartments, the ideal solution for arranging a children's corner would be a loft bed. This multifunctional bed is both a sleeping place and a play area that can be designed according to the interests and age of the child. If there are two children, the lower tier can be turned into a play area during the day and used as a sleeping place at night.
A bunk bed is also a great solution if you have two children. The lower tier can be used for both games and activities.
Tip: To optimize space, you can use shared tables with stands, whiteboards or art kits on the wall.
Children will love such a table, even if they have different interests - for example, if one is interested in drawing, and the other likes to sculpt from plasticine. Shelves on the walls will help save space and keep things organized and clean.
For schoolchildren
The main activity of a schoolchild is academic. Consequently, the zone is formed to provide the most comfortable space for doing homework. The student should have a comfortable table, shelves or cabinets where he can put away textbooks and notebooks after classes.
When designing a corner for a schoolchild, it is best to allocate a part for his hobbies: musical, sports, creative, etc.
In order to save space, you can use ready-made complex headsets or transforming models. Transformable beds, loft models and table beds, where the sleeping place is hidden under the tabletop, freeing up space for activities, continue to be relevant.
Lighting in the playroom: choosing chandeliers, lamps and floor lamps
It is important to take care of multi-level lighting of the room. Chandeliers that match the interior style can be used as the main light sources. Hanging models with unusual lampshades look amazing. The more concise the design looks, the better.
The chandelier can be complemented with original figured lamps. Children will love lamps with shades in the form of clouds, balloons, and ship steering wheels. Such models act not only as lighting sources, but also as full-fledged decorative elements.
Advice! If the playroom is intended for an older child, you can install fancy floor lamps on the floor. They fit perfectly into the design and provide dim local lighting. If small children will play in the room, it is better to replace the floor lamp with original sconces - such designs are safer.
Textiles in the design of a playroom for children: introducing accents
Designers agree that textiles must be present in the interior of a playroom. It makes the atmosphere more comfortable, becomes a distinctive accent, and adds functionality. Let's discuss which textile products are suitable for decoration.
Curtains
If the room has windows, it is important to take care of their proper framing. Long curtains made of soft flowing fabrics, stylish blinds or roller blinds are suitable.
Often designers include bright curtains with prints in the interior. These curtains look great in a modern room design. Light, neutral-colored curtains are a timeless classic that would also be appropriate in a play space.
Carpets
A beautiful rug deserves to take its place on the floor in a children's playroom. You can safely experiment and choose bright products with patterns.
The carpet can be of any shape: round, square, rectangular. Designers often use an interesting technique and stack several products overlapping each other. This composition looks especially organic against the backdrop of a minimalist setting.
Pillows, blankets
Pillows and blankets can be present in the playroom, even if there is no sofa - they will fit perfectly on the floor. In this case, textile products will serve not only a decorative function, because you can sit and lie on them. And they will come in handy more than once during games.
