A complete guide to choosing children's tables and chairs!

選擇困難症救星 點揀兒童桌椅全攻略! - Freemax - The Body Solution

When children start to enter school age, they need to spend a lot of time doing homework at the desk every day. A set of adjustable children's study tables and chairs can provide children with an exclusive study space, cultivate correct sitting posture, and reduce the chances of myopia, hunchback and even scoliosis. The following are things to note when purchasing children's study tables and chairs:

Children's study table:

1. A table that grows taller

An ergonomically designed study table is equipped with an adjustable height design, which is suitable for children of different heights. At the same time, it is in line with the various learning stages of children. Correct use can assist the healthy growth of children's back spine while improving concentration. (Learning with incorrect posture for a long time will increase the risk of scoliosis, myopia, etc. for children!)

2. Security


The design of children's study tables must put safety first. The edges of the tables need to be equipped with anti-collision rounded corners and anti-pinch finger structures. At the same time, the edges of the table legs should be designed with an extra layer of rounded material to avoid accidental scratches on hands and feet.

In order to provide children with a healthy learning environment, in addition to paying attention to functionality when purchasing, the materials must pass international testing standards (do not contain heavy metals, formaldehyde and other harmful substances). The main factor in measuring whether a material is environmentally friendly is the amount of formaldehyde it emits. The simplest way is to smell the material to see if there is an obvious pungent smell. If not, you can basically judge that the material is environmentally friendly. There is also the heavy metal content of tables and chairs. Generally, the brighter the color, the higher the lead content. Using environmentally friendly and non-toxic materials can not only protect the health of children, but also teach them more environmental awareness and do their part for a beautiful earth.

3. Sloped desktop design


Why do children always hunch over or lie on their desks when studying? Because our body structure does not have an optimal posture, and every joint needs to move to release stress. A study desk that complies with the ergonomic standards of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) can change the angle and height of the desk according to different work types, effectively reducing the accumulated pressure on the eyes and joints, and preventing myopia and spinal diseases.

Children's study chair:

1. Ergonomic design


An ergonomically designed children's chair should have a multi-stage adjustable seat height so that the chair can be accurately adjusted to the required height. Since every child's body shape is different, the adjustable seat cushion depth and backrest height can ensure that the child can sit fully on the seat cushion and have the back supported by the backrest, promoting good posture and preventing myopia and hunchback.

In addition, the design of children's chairs cannot be considered only from the perspective of aesthetics. The choice of chair backs should focus on spine protection and comfortable waist support, which can effectively support and straighten the child's spine.

2. Stability


It is best to use a chair with brake wheels (the wheels will automatically lock when the child sits down). For younger children, if the wheels have a locking design, it can prevent the chair from moving around while reading or writing, which helps maintain a correct sitting posture and improve concentration.
If there is more than one child at home, the brake wheel design can prevent the situation of "one child pushing another" and it is not easy for the child to fall over even if he/she stands on the chair.

3. Footrest


The large footrest can help children who are not tall enough to maintain a correct sitting posture. When your feet are relaxed, they can naturally maintain about 90 degrees and will not dangle in the air.

What are the benefits of children's study tables and chairs for children?

The height of the children's study table and chair can be adjusted synchronously with the child's height and growth. In other words: grow with your children. Children's study tables and chairs are ergonomically designed to meet different daily learning needs to promote good posture and vision. A set of height-adjustable tables and chairs can better meet the professional equipment required during the growth stage. On the one hand, it provides the most comfortable learning environment, and on the other hand, it can save you the trouble of replacing the desk every 2 to 3 years. The angle of the desktop not only affects the natural relaxation of the cervical spine, but also has a certain impact on the inclination of the upper body and the changes in the lumbar spine.

An inappropriate table height can easily cause children to develop a hunchback habit when lying on the table, while a chair that is too high will compress their thighs and cause poor blood circulation in the lower limbs. In order to meet their rapid growth, we use professional children's growth learning tables and chairs required at each stage to provide your children with the most comfortable learning environment.


Summarize:

Tips for choosing a child growth chair: "It has a footrest and a backrest; it can be adjusted so you can stay awake while reading"
When your knees are relaxed, they can naturally bend at about 90 degrees and rest on the ground or on the pedals without dangling in the air. The waist fits seamlessly with the chair, giving your back adequate support.
