I say go purple! To avoid making the room seem very small, you might consider doing purple 1/3 the way up from the floor on three (or all) walls, and letting the upper portion remain off white. You can put a wide (maybe 10") coordinated wallpaper border where the two colors meet to visually divide them and make it look really cool. They have great borders nowdays-- baseballs and mits, for example, or animals, or cartoon themes or what have you... (if you prefer baseball, the Colorado Rockies comes to mind --one of their colors are purple). I'm sure there are other teams with purple, also, like the Minnesota Vikings football team... He may be a little young yet to appreciate the exact teams, I guess. Anyway, if you think doing all the walls is a bit much and would make the room feel too small, you can always leave the wall with less area plain/off white, and decorate with whatever his bedroom theme is! Good luck. Sounds like fun!! :)
I have to agree with both previous answers!! But one more bit of info... you can also use a lighter wall background and use a large sponge or something original to BLOT in designs in purple ... sounds like FUN!!

Go to home depo to the paint section. Pick your color they will make it up.Buy a roller,2inch paint brush,and some tape and paint it .
Often it can be desirable to use one wall as a feature wall or two if you do it all purple it may be a little restrictive I suggest you pick an opposing wall to a window so that light from this will not make it seem to dark
Buy 1 Gal. of red paint and one gal. of blue paint. Mix the two gallons together very well. This should yeild a nice grape purple depending on what shades of red and blue you mix. You should have plenty to cover any average size room. Good luck!
