Tables For Play And Projects
Before reaching their primary school years, younger kids can still benefit from a play and learn space. Set aside a space for a kids table where young learners can do arts and crafts or work on puzzles. You can set up a kids table and chair set and pair it with easy-access storage, so that they can engage in learning from a young age, while also keeping the nearby area clutter-free.
Simple Sets For Fast Setup
A matched pair makes planning easy, and a kids desk and chair set gives the right balance of surface size and seat height from day one. Prefer a mix-and-match setup? Keep the timber colour consistent so your kids desk and chair look like a set.
Storage That Keeps Floors Clear
Deep drawers near the workstation hold books and stationery, so packing away is quick, and a tall unit on one wall saves floor space for play and movement.
Some desks come with integrated storage options such as a storage drawer, or a bookshelf hutch where children can keep stationery, notebooks and knick knacks tidily away, ensuring there is limited clutter on the desk top.
You can sort uniforms and nightwear into simple sections with a tidy chest from the Boori Kids Chests Of Drawers collection, so mornings run smoothly and the desk stays clear.
Build A Friendly Work Zone
Set the work surface so elbows rest softly and the screen sits at eye level, then the kids desk feels welcoming for reading, writing and small projects. Keep only today's tools at the top, and use a small pegboard above for headphones and scissors. Then the setup looks clean, and your child knows where everything lives.
Materials And Finishes For Family Rooms
Painted timber uses water-based, low-VOC finishes that wipe clean with a soft cloth, and durable laminates add toughness where hands touch the most. A kids desk made with sustainably sourced timber and strong fixings provides long-term strength, while gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Delivery, Assembly And Support
Delivery is to your front door, with typical processing of 1 to 3 business days before dispatch, and delivery usually takes 7 to 10 business days after it leaves the warehouse. It is best to check delivery timeframes and expectations for your address.
Boori does not offer in-house assembly. Weekday support can assist with missing bolts or delivery questions.

Quick Ideas That Save Time
Small, repeatable habits make a big difference. Use these tips to keep the study area clear, and add them one by one so routines stick.
- Small Room Layout: Place the workstation on the long wall so the centre stays open and the chair slides back with no bumps, and keep the kids desk clear by storing today's books in one shallow tray.
- Study Start Kit: Keep two simple trays on top, one for current books and one for tomorrow's pack, so your child can start and finish without searching for tools.
- Craft Clean Up: Store paints and glue in a lidded tub and use a washable mat on the table so resetting after projects takes a minute and the surface looks fresh.
- Shared Spaces: Give each child a labelled basket under the work surface so handovers are smooth and the kids desk looks tidy at the end of the day.
- Movement Breaks: Balance seated tasks with a short climb and stretch using a simple piece from Climbing Furniture so energy resets and focus returns without leaving the room.
Play Corners That Work With Study
A reading mat and a small shelf can sit near the workstation, so a kids table handles puzzles and crafts in the same zone. You can group toys by activity with open cubes from Playroom Furniture, so tidy up takes a few calm minutes before dinner or bedtime.
Care Tips For Daily Use
Wipe painted parts with a soft cloth and mild cleaner, and avoid abrasive pads on edges to keep the finish smooth and bright for years. Tighten the screws every school term and keep cables out of the chair space so the kids desk stays safe and nothing gets caught during busy weeks.
FAQs
At what age should a kid get a desk?
Once homework begins, often in early primary school, a kids desk helps create a clear spot for reading, writing, and projects. Keep the setup simple at first and add drawers or shelves as routines grow.
How to choose a desk for a child?
Pick a surface that fits the room and leaves clear walkways, then match the seat height so elbows rest near 90 degrees. If you want a fast, coordinated start, a kids desk and chair set pairs the work surface and seating at a sensible height.
How tall should a desk be for a 7-year-old?
Aim for a height where the forearms rest flat and the shoulders stay relaxed, with the feet flat on the floor or on a footrest. An adjustable kids desk chair makes these small changes easy as they grow.
At what age should kids use desk chairs?
As soon as seated homework starts, a stable kids desk chair supports good posture for short sessions. Look for a back that supports the lower spine and a seat height that keeps knees roughly level with hips.
What to look for when buying a desk?
Choose smooth, rounded edges, a sturdy base, and a size that fits the room without blocking doors or drawers. Also consider integrated storage features such as a storage drawer or a hutch with shelves, so that your little learner has an easier time keeping their study space neat and tidy.
