When your children's bedroom has limited space, a loft bed is the perfect solution. Similar to a bunk bed, it features a raised platform to place a mattress on, under which there is a sizable free space to do with as you like. Here are a few ideas to maximize that area's functionality. 

How to Make the Most of the Space Under a Loft Bed

1. Extra Storage

Storage space is necessary to keep a kid's room neat and tidy. If the room's closet and shelves are full, the area under a loft bed offers more storage solutions. Place a dresser or bureau to store clothes, or stack plastic containers to keep toys and art supplies. Measure the space under the bed before buying furniture to ensure everything fits. 

2. Meditation Space

Kids get stressed out too, whether because of schoolwork, their social lives, or the state of the world. Encourage healthy coping mechanisms, such as deep breathing and meditation, to help your children care for their mental health and wellness. A meditation space can fit beneath the bed and feature a comfortable carpet or yoga mat, soothing lights, and a Bluetooth speaker to play calming music or sounds.

3. Entertainment Zone

With many kids spending more time at home these days, parents are used to squabbles over TVs and gaming systems. Creating individual entertainment zones for each child ensures they have a space of their own and spares you the hassle of playing referee when the kids can't agree on what to watch. Along with electronic devices, set up fun beanbag chairs or hammocks to allow your kids to watch their favorite shows and movies in comfort.
