I freaking love this room.

Probably has a play kitchen because it's a playHOUSE. A kitchen is an integral part of a house, after all. I think most boys would love to play in there too, unless they've been brought up to think they should only do "boy" things. Point is, make it fun. They're going to gravitate toward what they truly enjoy if we don't make a big fuss about it.

And it's beautiful, by the way. I am shopping for (or possibly working myself up to building) a playhouse myself. I hope I can make ours feel as cozy as this one.

Ha, @ roundabout - I didn't notice the use of recluse 'til you pointed it out, but now I have this awesome mental picture of Sarah R., looking all put together, cozied up to a hermit.

I love every single one of these. Ready to paint a room!

Built-ins are the best! I would love that bed right now, at age 33. And as typwc said, you could easily change the style. True, though, that I'd be grumbling every time I changed the sheets :)

I have been planning a rainbow to extend in a 1/4 arc from the side of my kiddos' closet, over the mantel, and to the floor. Pretty huge, which is the reason I've been putting it off. Thanks for the great ideas. I think I'm going to go a bit muted, as well. I do like the idea of letting the kids help, but this may be too big for that. @brakeforbread - PERFECT!

Can anyone tell me where to find a couch like that?

@ oaxacaborn - my sentiments exactly...or stretch out on the bed and read a book, that'd be nice too. Even through photos the room just conveys serenity. This is my favorite, by far, and there are some really nice rooms as competition. The colors complement the dark woodwork perfectly; everything looks very warm and soothing. Where do the steps/curtain lead? It looks very hidden-staircase-ish.

Yep, you know if you start off the piece with any measure of achievement, that's all we crazy parents will focus on. Really, you have every right to throw that in there, but if you wanted us to pay attention to the point of the post, you could have just skipped the number of pieces. Anyway, it's a great idea, trading up, and I think we're going to use it. Thanks for the help with the long winter months ahead.

Cinci is great - another MUST, IMO, is Scotti's Italian Restaurant. MMMM. Wish I had a big ol' plate right now.

I am ready to rip out my kitchen floor and install one just like that. Love it!

Great use of the space. I love rooms with little nooks and niches like this one, especially for kids. It's so fun to play in special, small spaces like the dormer area. I'm seeing some peekaboo from behind the glider in your future.

This is wonderful! I love the stepping "stones" and the bamboo tunnel. I'm trying to come up with a plan for something similar in our yard but feeling a bit overwhelmed. This is very inspiring!

Very nice. Am I the only one entertained by the profusion of grey rooms on AT? Not that I don't love 'em...and I am/was a participant in the trend. I just painted over my grey living room walls with a jaunty green. Grey is a hard one to get right, and I wasn't successful. Nicely done, Will.

Hallelujah!! Darn fruit gooey thingies are my kiddos' absolute favorites. I always feel so bad about buying them. We'll be trying this ASAP.
