Your kids' rooms...

Tweet

You've just won the lottery, and your first project is to redo your childrens' bedrooms (this is after you've built your house and everyone has their own space). What does the room look like? I'm not talking crazy overboard. I'm talking about a cool kid's room that's comfortable, livable, and perfect for your child. My daughter's room: It would have plenty of space, with 2 nice sized closets. The first closet is for her clothes and shoes. The second closet is for her artwork and art supplies, as well as making a good little room to relax in (she likes to crawl in little spaces and play her DS or draw). It would also have bean bags and "cuddle" stuff in the back for her to wind down after school. The theme of her room would be fantasy/rainforest. She adores animals, but I would have to get a lot of pinks and purples in there too. She would have a nice all in one full sized loft bed. The shelves on her bed would hold all her treasures, and little things she likes to hide from her brother. She would have a little book space by the window. It would be a little nook in the room with a comfy window bench, and shelves to hold her books. She would also have a little platform swing in the middle of the room. It would be just big enough that she can lay down and draw, and the hook would accomodate any type of swing or hammock. It would be right in the middle of the room so it can swing freely. The theme of the room would flow right into her bathroom. My son's room: Again, plenty of space with 2 closets. His second closet would hold all of his cars, trains and tracks. It would also have just enough room for a small trampoline and of course safely padded. His theme would be space with all sorts of different paintings, maps and pictures of stars and planets. He would also have a full sized all in one loft, decorated as a rocket. The pull out desk part of the bed is perfect for him to line up his cars. His book nook would be set up so he has a nice view of the night sky, stars and moon. He would also have a built in obstacle course that flows with the room. A soft place to jump into, ways to hang and climb, and slides. Instead of a typical swing, he would have a "hideout" type swing that looks like a rocket. It would be big enough for him to sleep in if he wanted. It would also have fake windows with outer space drawings on it, and of course astronaut pajamas and costumes to go with it all. My kids are obviously my life, and I'm waiting for the day that I can give them their dream rooms. So what would you do?
