How to choose a desk for a child: from a few years old to a teenager

​

A preschooler's desk resembles... a mad scientist's workshop. Among chewed crayons and pens without caps there are scraps of crooked cut paper and long-dried paints. The teenager's desk, in turn, undergoes a metamorphosis at least once a month, along with a change in musical idols. What should I do when choosing a desk for a teenager? How to organize a place to learn for a teenager entering adulthood? We advise you!

It is here that the first laurels, drawings and diagonal letters are created. Desks for children of preschool age should be safe, comfortable and functional. Rounded edges will protect the toddler from injury, three-section ball guides will protect fingers from trapping, and the door equipped with a system of silent closing in the morning will not put the whole house on its feet.

On the preschooler's desk there must be room for fragrant elastics, pens with stamps, books with shelves... A desk with a practical top consisting of additional shelves will allow you to fully utilize the space for learning and playing. Maximum use of space is particularly important in a small room.

When choosing a desk for a children's room, it is worth remembering that what a five-year-old toddler currently likes can be a source of shame for an eight-year-old. That's why more and more parents are opting for white, neutral desks and children's furniture that fits perfectly in both boys' and girls' rooms. Individual preferences of our child can be emphasized by choosing vivid colour accents to the neutral equipment.

A desk is an investment for many years. There are more and more models available on the market that can be adapted to the dynamically changing growth of a child during this period.

The first ringtone at school means your adolescent child is spending more and more time at his or her desk. It is worth paying special attention to whether the desk is adjusted to its needs and changing silhouette. Inadequate choice can result in serious spinal problems. A properly selected desk, when correctly positioned, should provide a right angle between the forearm and the arm, and between the lower leg and the calf.

Sooner or later a computer will appear on the teenager's desk. An interesting solution is a desk with a raised top, in which you can hide e.g. a laptop. To make desk work comfortable, we should position the desk as close to the window as possible to ensure constant access to the natural lighting that is safest for the eyes.
