If you have kids in your house, you want to make sure that their game room is as fun and playful as possible. This is why many parents will establish a theme for the game room given to one or all of their children's tastes. While this may work wonderfully when your children are toddlers, by the time they hit middle school, the style you choose for your kids' game room may no longer be as popular as it was when they were younger. You also want to avoid choosing a theme for your children's game room that may be overly violent. If your son, for example, has a penchant for action movies, you probably don't want to deck the room with violent posters that may not be appropriate for younger members of the household.
A good compromise between age-appropriate, safe, and timely is a board game-themed media room. While you don't have to go nuts proclaiming your love for Battleship and Candyland, you can add a few playful design cues to the space to make it fun and entertaining. If you don't mind a fun art project, consider taking a lampshade that you would have in this space and decking it out with Monopoly money. You can layer the fake bills on top of each other in colorful arrays that bring them to life. Using spare cardboard boxes and a little paint, consider making a series of large Scrabble tiles to hang on your wall and spell a fun message or the family name.
The opportunities are endless for turning the area where you and your family enjoy shuffleboard into a tribute to your favorite board games.
