A fun ceiling light

We need a ceiling light for our playroom. The dc are growing up (youngest is a tween), so the playroom is getting revamped for older kids and adults. We still want it to be a fun-looking room, just not babyish. Gender-neutral, too. It's not a huge room, and the ceiling is modernly lowish, so the lamp can't be too in-yer-face.

We all liked the two lamps in the pics. We went to buy the sun one, but it is discontinued, then saw the pendant one, but it is totally unsuitable - needs to be flush-fitting. Besides, what we liked was the way you could change it, rather than the actual appearance.

Please throw some ideas at me! With urls too, if possible. It doesn't need to be fashionable, just fun and practical (and flush-fitting).

Get a basic fitting and add a Bluetooth led changing light bulb instead! About £15 on amazon

This is my favourite from Ines but is a pendant

Love the colour changing bulb! But we would still want to put it in a fun fitting.

Yes, we love that lampshade, too. But it's just totally inappropriate Sad I don't want to say "No bouncing balls in the playroom!"

Wow!

But, again, not suitable. I need a flush-fitting, not a pendant.

This is the problem. There are loads of gorgeous pendant shades that are fun and not babyish, and there are loads of gorgeous flush-fitting fixtures that are babyish and cute. But I'm struggling to find a flush-fitting fixture that is fun and not babyish.
