The Narnia-Themed Playroom is one way to ignite a child's imagination. Posted by Redditor kelseypolo, it documents her friends' fantastical decorating endeavor. After building their new home, they discovered they had extra space just beyond their 9-year-old daughter's bedroom. Instead of wasting it on something boringly practical, they decided to convert it into a playroom for their daughter.
Thus, the Narnia-Themed Playroom was born. To enter it, the daughter must climb through a small hole cut into a large wooden cabinet that looks suspiciously like the one in the novels. Once through, she enters a room with a plush white carpet that mimics the expanse of white snow the Pevensie siblings first encounter when they enter the other side. There is also a large mural depicting Aslan.
