My Children's Play Area

So, today I thought I'd show you my basement play area for my children. 

About 2 years ago, we made the space under the stairs into a little "Beach Shack" 

and had someone come paint some different beach themed items inside and out of the shack. 

My kids love playing in this little space and I like how it doesn't scream

"children's area" but it still is cute for kids to play in.

This room does scream "children's area," but that is ok since it is
their actual playroom in the basement.
My children enjoy Nemo, but we mostly choose this theme
because they love playing "GO FISH" with this card game we have.  

We also had a big salt-water aquarium and they have cute small turtles as pets, 

so this ocean/sea animal themed playroom was their idea!

I know a lot of people thought I was crazy for using this turquoise color, but I'm glad I did.  

My kids really like how fun this room is, 

and I think the playroom is the perfect room to use a bright color like this.
