Many of us are returning to home schooling for the foreseeable future and as we prepare our homes to accommodate educational pursuits it’s requiring us to create new spaces that serve a dual function. To help you get organized and inspired to craft your own home school work space, here are some kid friendly “office” ideas.

This loft is the ultimate multipurpose room. By creating a workspace behind the sofa, it helps to define the areas and is a great way to maximize the footprint of the room. The world map gives a feeling of worldly pursuits and serves as a handy geography reference. The built-ins provide ample storage for learning materials and entertainment needs and the spacious sofa offers plenty of space to relax at the end of the school day.
