The podium in the apartment can be used in a child’s room. A hidden bed on guides will allow you to save more free space for classes, while the podium itself will serve to highlight the working area. This option is most acceptable for a nursery, due to the normal height of the bed, the elevation leaves a share of risk for the child.
