In ATL, the kids hang out in the hallway adjacent to the hall. Only we adults care whether the space is actually a room. For the kids, it will be a spaceship or house or zoo, no matter what it looks like to us. Corralling the younger set might be accomplished with a row of chairs or overturned table, though we have never used that and even my once three year old knew to stay 'in bounds'.
