What if you don't have a whole room for a playroom? It's a good idea to have a designated space so that toys don't wander into every room of your house. Even a small nook of your home can be devoted to a play area. Some ideas are corners of infrequently used rooms like dining rooms or guestrooms, or large unused walk-in closets - just remove the doors and add curtains or a folding screen to cover the space.
Toys can be quickly stashed away in almost any room, without cramping the style of the room. Coffee tables with drawers, decorative trunks, and storage ottomans all are stylish storage solutions, and no one ever has to know that they are filled with ten thousand lego pieces and broken crayons. In a less formal room, baskets, buckets and canvas bins can be used to quickly corral toys.
Another way to contain toys in a play area: let them be part of the decor. In a casual room, vintage looking toys make great decorations as well as activities for kids. There are many reproductions of classic toys that meet current safety standards.
