    Default Medieval Kids Room theme: Help me with ideas!

    Alright, as you know, I'll be having my first kid here...

    Well, after much butt-kissing to my wife, I was able to convince her of going for a medieval theme for the kids room. She was set on a zoo theme, but I was able to explain all of the variety in storytelling, history, fantasy, and colors of time period.

    So anyway, I want to paint the room with images and paraphenilia of the period. So, I thought I would ask you fine folks for some help in idea generation.

    Keep in mind, the goal here is to have a nursery that is not too babyish in that the kid will want the theme for at least a few years as a child. Also keep in mind this is a newborn: No blood and guts, scary dark orcs, axes chopping off heads, etc. I am even going to minimize exposure to weaponry by keeping swords sheathed.

    Finally, I am open to fantasy and historical ideas. So far I have dragons, knights, horses, castles, maps of europe/england, a king and queen, maybe throw in some fairy tale characters like rapunzel, etc.

    I have no idea if its a boy or a girl. Thats still seven weeks away before we find out.

    If its a girl then the wife demands the zoo theme... Oh well. It's a compromise.

    EDIT: If you guys want to post some pictures, drawing, etc, I would be much obliged....
