Architectural Digest just profiled actor Hank Azaria's home in Bel Air and, of course, we honed right in on his son's playroom space. While we're really digging the large farmhouse table in lieu of a small child's table, our favorite feature is the numbers painted onto the storage baskets. More

You don't need a playhouse that costs thousands of dollars to create a cute outdoor space. A small shed will work perfectly and adapt well over the years. More

Recently we've noticed a mini-trend gaining popularity - the use of mailboxes in the playroom or other children's spaces. The ones we've seen have run the gamut from actual mailboxes used as is or cut down to size to toy versions made specifically with kids in mind. Whatever the box itself, we love the sight of these mailboxes popping up everywhere, especially in an age of emails, texts and tweets. More

Henry & Holly must be two busy bees in this beautiful, creative playroom. Rachel shares: We decided to create a playroom out of the otherwise useless 6 by 8 foot "office" next to the dining room; it is the brightest room in the house and probably the most colorful now! More

Spending more time indoors during the cold winter months has many of us evaluating and re-evaluating our homes. Do you ever just get in one of those moods where you want to rearrange all of the furniture? Maybe the dining room and the living room change places. Abbey of Aesthetic Outburst had such a thought. She swapped her daughter's room for the playroom and the resulting playroom is a most enviable creative space. More

Name: Addison
Location: Madison, WI

When Addison's fantasy-filled attic playroom was featured as part of a Green Tour on Re-Nest, it won the hearts of readers. Parents Lynn and Steve transformed the attic space--along with Addison's bedroom and bath--when they renovated their 1860's carriage house in Madison, WI. Creative and budget-minded, the couple found the majority of building materials and supplies at Habitat for Humanity ReStore, along with favorite thrift stores. They were happy to let us take a closer look at the dreamy spaces they created for their daughter.

Elise's delightful playroom works on many levels and reclaiming an unused room is the cherry on top. Erin shares: Our unused upstairs bedroom was the last room in the house to be decorated, and in an attempt to corral our toddler daughter's toys, we decided to turn it into a playroom. More

Raise your hand if your dining room is underutilized. Yup, Suzie's too so she and her husband made part of it into a fun playroom for their son. Suzie shares: Our home is on the small side, so dedicating an entire room to toys and books and puzzles was just unfortunately out of the question. Our dining "room" was virtually unused and since we still have an eat-in kitchen/family room, we decided to donate that table and make that area a play space. More

Megan created this charming playroom before the nursery and why not, they're so much fun to put together. She tells us more: This room is an odd shape, so when I first saw the Land of Nod mini pullout I knew it would be perfect for the nook and I could start designing around it. More
