Two closets in a room

Pinky
by Pinky
Hi friends. My son and my daughter's (6 and 10 years) rooms have two big size closets and they mostly only use one. So how can I use the other? What should I do with the other?
Pls suggest...TIA
Both are on one wall with two separate doors and sit on the front of the bed.

    Put a desk in one and use as a little homework area for them

    The desk and a little homework area is a great idea. With my step son's room (because he had an enormous closet) we added a shelf unit for his tv and his wii and all of his games. I rarely advocate for ever putting a tv in anyone's room (not my thing) but, so far, it has been working good with him, he doesn't play it often, just for an hour or two after his home work his finished (or so we're led to believe... lol) I'm rather jealous though because when I was a kid I would have given anything for such a great setup!

    depending on the layout; you can build a bench with cushioned seat and soffit above with lights for storage inside bench and great reading nook with recessed shelves. I did this in a room and recreated a small hanging closet on one end and shelved closet on the other end; came out great.
