7 Interesting Study Spaces for Children!

A sense of wonder at all things around them is what makes children who they are. Exploration and discovery are ways that young ones use to keep their inherent learning spark alive. Hence spaces dedicated to learning form an important requirement in a home.

Well lit spaces, adequate working area, ample storage for books, stationery and learning materials and sufficient electrical outlets for devices are common criteria for Study areas.

Dedicating this Blog post to our youngsters and wishing them a very happy belated Children’s day, we take a look at some striking study spaces in residences that incorporate the above basic norms with Functional and Visual value additions.
