The Ultimate Tiny Homes Are Made For Kids
|

They're small, well-designed homes that can cost up to $20,000. But unlike the tiny homes we know and love, these structures aren't for adults taken with the less-is-more, mortgage-free lifestyle. These houses are built entirely for children.

The homes can come complete with wraparound porches, turrets, skylights, cedar shingles and other features you'd normally find in adult houses. Certain designs are pre-wired for electricity, blurring the lines between "play house" and "tiny house" a bit more.
