Murphy Desk

Trevor Dixon

For families short on space, a desk that folds away when not in use lets kids have their own study spot without taking up precious real estate. Be sure to install your wall-mounted desk using mounting hardware appropriate for your home's walls.

Super Sofa

Jonny Valiant

A kid-proof sofa is possible if you choose wisely. Select a model with dark-colored machine washable slipcovers. If slipcovers aren't an option, choose dark, spill-resistant upholstery, like microfiber or polyester. Cushions you can flip mean you can have a "good" side for guests and a "kid and pet" side for day-to-day use.
