The things we surround children with must be durable and of high quality. This also applies to the first chairs. When children grow up, they want their own comfortable place. The IKEA children's chair can be selected depending on the design of the nursery and the height of the child.
Safety is the most important quality of this furniture. Children are very active, they need to play and move. Therefore, it is necessary that the chair does not break from the weight or from the first fall. Therefore, the company’s specialists carefully check everything.
Sustainability is also a very important aspect. The chairs are difficult to knock over unless you deliberately try, which means that even the most restless children can play, draw and be creative without disturbing their parents.
Age groups of high chairs for children
The choice of a piece of furniture for a child directly depends on his age and height. It is important for parents to monitor the correct posture of their child from an early age. Chairs for children can be divided into several groups according to the years of their owners:
From 6 months to three years. These products include high chairs. From the general assortment of the company, three names can be distinguished: “Antelope”, “Spoling”, “Leopard”.
Classic models (“Urban”, “Agam”) are intended for toddlers from three to six years old. These chairs are larger in size compared to high chairs. They have sufficient height (up to the dining table) and a footrest.
School models for children from 7 to 12 years old. As an example, parents can check out the Jules children's chair in Ikea stores. The product has an adjustable back and seat, which helps maintain posture.
When choosing and using a chair, it is important that the child sits correctly. His elbows and knees should form a right angle when sitting.
Features of products for children
Furniture designed for babies is different from other interior items. Products for a children's room should first of all be focused on the safety of the child. Among other criteria for choosing furniture for furnishing bedroom, study, and play areas in the interior:
- functionality;
- compactness;
- quality materials;
- ergonomics;
- reliability.
To properly fill the free space of a room, you need to choose functional furniture. Hybrid models of cabinet products allow you to combine sleeping and working spaces to create a play area. Functional furniture makes it possible to equip the room with the necessary interior items for the child. Modification of models allows you to use interior items for a long time thanks to sliding, adjustable elements.
Cabinet products for a children's room should be made from materials that do not contain chemicals. Eco-friendly raw materials are reliable and durable during operation. Resistance to mechanical stress, dirt, light weight - the advantages of high-quality materials.
When choosing furniture, you should consider the age group of children. Models selected taking into account the child’s anatomical features will allow him to comfortably use interior items independently.
Ergonomic furniture should be safe, exclude sharp corners and small parts in the design. For reliable use, it is necessary to choose models with the ability to install additional fences and fastenings.
