• Colour. The choice is great: from simple colors "under the tree", ending with extraordinary shades and color combinations. The most popular colors among the tables of MDF, chipboard - is wenge, maple, walnut, beech.You can find tables with prints of beautiful pictures or make illustrations to order.

What material to choose for the children's table is a rather serious question, because a child, especially a schoolboy, spends a lot of time at the table. The main materials from which the tables are made:

Table made of solid wood. Wood is an environmentally friendly material and is best suited for a child's room. Wooden tables are durable and stable, although heavy. This is not a cheap option.

MDF and chipboard. Chipboard It is considered non-environmentally friendly material, therefore for children's rooms only class E1 is used, where the content of harmful substances is reduced.MDF more environmentally friendly material. This is an option for those who want to save. Such furniture is lighter than solid wood furniture.

Plastic. Plastic tables differ in ease, mobility. The child himself can easily move the table from place to place, it will be easy to erase stains, glue residues, traces of markers. Bright and unusual in design - these tables always attract kids.

Mixed type. These tables can be seen in older children, schoolchildren. This table is made of various materials: metal legs and supports, wood table top or MDF or plastic inserts.

The choice of color for the children's table is important, because too bright colors will distract from classes, and a dark background will lead to fatigue and lethargy. It is best to choose not saturated colors, but pastel, soft, neutral shades. They help the child to maintain concentration.

This color creates a feeling of purity and adds light. But it is better to use in combination with other colors.

Bright, positive, sunny - creates the same mood in a child. Great for children's room.But do not overdo it, because children are easily overworked from excessive activity.

It has long been a green matter tightened the tables and green lampshades. This color contributes to calm and concentration, relaxes eyesight.

The color of the tree is oak, walnut, maple, cherry. The most organic option that will fit into any interior and will be neutral for the eyes and mood of the child, plus will not distract.

The following selection criteria are important:

1. The material of the product.
2. Streamline forms, comfortable angles.

IKEA offers a large selection of tables for children from a year to 2 years. You can buy a ready-made set or combine different elements to taste.

For children from 4 years old it is better to choose tables that vary in height. Plastic tables are decorated with educational tools - geometric figures, seasons, animals, etc. For a 5-year-old child, educational games are very interesting and exciting. And for 6 years already the preparation for school is preferable. Here you can already see the alphabet, the numbers from 1 to 10, the clock and so on.

For study, a completely different table is needed, so that it is convenient to write, do homework, so that there is a lot of free space for storing various items. For children of 7 years old, it is already necessary to choose a table for a first grader, equipped with drawers, shelves and good lighting. It is better to choose a table “for growth” so that it is not small for a child of 8 years.

The first thing to do is to choose the raw material from which the product will be crafted. The best option is wood, it is easy to work with it at home.

It will take:

Before preparing the material, it is necessary to consider various table layouts and choose the most appropriate drawings for which the table will be made.

First, pay attention to the growth of the child, a table for children is usually from 50 cm. If you wish, you can attach a shelf to the table, it will be useful and convenient.

The first thing to do is handle the tree correctly. First oshkurit, then rinse, varnish or paint.

It is important to take into account the peculiarities of the interior of the child’s room so that the table fits into the color range, but at the same time, has a neutral color that does not distract from the lessons.

Above the table you can hang multi-colored shelves - it will revive the corner. Even instead, you can leave the wall empty for posters or drawings.

The size of the table depends on the parameters of the child. It's not just about comfort and convenience. Proper seating of the child at the table is very important, because depending on this, the correct posture will be formed.

Measurements:

1. From heel to knee. This will be the height of the chair.
2. Seat the child to the correct height and measure the distance from the floor to the elbow. This will be the height of the tabletop.

You should also pay attention to such parameters as:

1. The length of the table top (should be about 1 meter);
2. The width of the working surface (about 60-80 cm);
3. Depth (to fit feet, 40-50 cm).

Tables for small children are best done with a small margin for growth or to make a table that can be adjusted in height.

School corners are very popular, where several pieces of furniture are combined at once: a table, shelves, cabinets, drawers, bedside tables. It is very convenient and multifunctional.
