How do you say time out area for kids?

Would it be malliberejo?

How would you say "he was on time out"

Malliberejo is a gaol!

via komputeko timeout is tempolimo or eltempiĝo (time-out).
malliberejo is prison.

Alkanadi you need to explain first what a time-out area for kids is, and then we might be able to come up with a suitable translation.

If you feel that paŭtejo is too sarcastic then try punejo or punejeto.

A vaguer and less judgmental word might be apartejo. Other possibilities: elbarejo, paŭzejo, koleroĉambro, silentigejo, dampejo...

"He was in time-out." Li estis en la paŭtejo. Li estis en punopaŭzo. Li ekskludiĝantis. Li elbariĝantis.
