A guide to choosing the best kids furniture

Kids Furniture Set Types: Finding the furniture set you want is easy if you know what you’re looking for. Fortunately for most kid’s rooms there are only a few common pieces of furniture that need to be in place for every child. So, when you’re looking for a kid’s furniture set make sure you have a bed, dresser, and bookcase for storing toys or coloring books.

Furniture for older kids

Older children and tweens need dedicated space to do their homework, so consider a proper desk and chair, as well as adult-sized bookshelves to store their textbooks and notebooks. Look for an ergonomic desk chair to protect your kid’s posture. For kids who love to read, a bean bag and a floor lamp in a corner of the room make a wonderful retreat.

Choosing convenient, comfortable bunk beds

Fun and practical, bunk beds make efficient use of vertical space to pack two beds into the floor footprint that one bed typically occupies. Bunk beds are a favorite bedroom-furniture item for children, but adults can take advantage of this design as well for vacation homes and small-space living. The available options in this product category can be surprisingly diverse, and there s a bunk bed to suit just about every need in this section. In addition to variety in material options and furniture design styles, bunk beds come in several different sizes and formats.

Bunk bed terminology

The basic concept of a bunk bed is easy to understand, but the nature of the bed-on-bed stack can vary from model to model. Make sure you get exactly the bunk bed you want by learning the difference between different bunk bed styles. Considering these options prior to browsing may change your perception of which bunk bed will work best in your home.

Queen over queen: In rare cases, bunk bed frames may be available in queen sizes. These beds tend to stack in parallel, and they accommodate standard queen-sized mattresses for a more generous sleeping space.

Provide productive comfort with children’s desks and chairs

Whether your child needs a dedicated homework area or a space to spread out and explore their imagination, a desk and chair setup can provide space to help them stay organized, focused and entertained. Just as it is with your office furniture, however, there are some important things to consider when it comes to the desk and chair’s ergonomics, size and features. We’re here to help you learn more about children’s’ desks and chairs so you can make the choice that’s right for your little one’s needs. Here’s what to keep in mind while you get started shopping.

Size considerations

When kids are comfortable, it’s easier for them to concentrate. Staying comfortable when working at a desk means that both the desk and the chair need to be sized properly to fit your child’s height. Fortunately, figuring out the dimensions that the desk and chair should be is a similar process to determining what size your own office furniture needs to be — only with smaller proportions. Get the following measurements before you start your search.

Desk height: Once you know the correct chair measurement, it’s easy to find the proper desk height measurement. This number should be about 7 to 9 inches higher than the chair seat to let your child’s arms rest comfortably on the tabletop without hunching over. Remember that kids grow quickly; it may be a wise decision to purchase a desk with adjustable legs that you can crank or twist to different heights. That way, it’ll suit your child’s height as they get taller.

Types of desks

Your child may benefit from having different desks at different life stages. In general, kids’ desks can be divided into three types: preschool, elementary school and junior high/high school. And, while many of the product listings in our selection provide appropriate age ranges to help you decide, it’s also important to consider the different features of each desk type to see what meets your child’s needs.

Junior high and high school: When kids reach these age groups, it’s likely that they’ll have mobile devices and computers that they use to get work done and play games. Look for a larger desk that can accommodate a laptop or desktop computer. Other helpful technology-related features to consider are a slide-out keyboard tray and a large lower shelf or back hutch that can hold a printer. In addition, a small shelving unit that sits on the back of the desk is an ideal solution for storing your child’s growing collection of textbooks, gadgets and trophies. You can find the proper measurements using the guidelines above; however, the distance between the chair seat and the desktop should be about 12 inches, not between 7 and 9 inches.

Be sure to check the weight rating on any loft bed you choose and compare it to your child’s weight to be sure you get a sturdy bedroom set.

Baby & Kids’ Armoires

Armoires (pronounced ärm-‘wär) are a type of furniture that usually come with closet space in addition to cabinet or drawer space. It comes from a French word that refers to any tall, free standing cupboard. Other names for a baby armoire are wardrobe or cupboard. When homes did not have built in closets early on, armoires were created as a solution. Today, they are useful for rooms with limited closet space since you get extra hanging space with them. Armoires have a handful of use cases such as placing them in dining rooms, living rooms, and bedrooms. You can also purchase an armoire for your nursery or kids’ bedroom. If your nursery is lacking closet space, then browsing for the right baby armoire from Shop Kids’ Furniture is just what you need! Remember these tend to be slightly bigger and taller than a dresser so make sure you measure the space you have in your kid’s bedroom or nursery before purchasing. Some kids’ armoires come with enough drawer space to possibly take the place of getting a dresser for the room as well.
