Step stools make it easier for children to reach high places such as sinks, while contributing to the development of their self-confidence. The designs of these products prioritise ergonomic and safety features in accordance with the physical and mental development of children.

These products allow children to create a special space of their own with their structures that support skill development. In the first steps of their educational life, studying or drawing on a children's chair can provide them with great motivation. The related products are carefully designed to ensure that children are comfortable despite sitting for long periods of time and gain correct sitting habits.

Children's chairs and stools offer options for all ages and interests with models in various shapes and sizes.

Children's chair features

Ergonomic designs are prioritised when choosing a child chair for the healthy growth and development of children. Thanks to features such as height adjustment, children can use the chairs for years and have a suitable sitting experience at any age. Children's chair models should have features that children can sit easily and safely.

Thanks to high water and impact resistant materials, children's chairs are suitable for long-term use. Providing adequate support for the back and seat helps children to maintain the correct sitting position. In addition, details such as rounding the edges of the children's stool can prevent possible accidents.

The use of environmentally friendly materials reflects IKEA's mission of sustainability. That's why the baby chair is made from materials derived from renewable resources, such as wood. Like entrance hall furniture, they are easy to assemble, allowing parents to move them practically anywhere in the house.

Small baby chair models are designed especially for babies' first sitting experiences. These models are equipped with additional supports for safe seating and have special designs that prevent babies from falling or slipping. Meal trays in some models make meal times more practical.

Safety is always a top priority, which is why high chair and stool models are tested for balance and stability. Sturdy base structures contribute to minimising the risk of the chair tipping over, while all materials are produced in a way that will not harm children using non-toxic paints and coatings.

Although the features of children's chairs vary, the common goal of each model is the comfort and safety of children. IKEA integrates this child-friendly approach into all product designs and responds to parents' expectations. Parents can easily choose the most suitable children's chair models for their children's needs and the one that best suits their living spaces.

Portability feature also gains importance when the dynamics of daily life are taken into consideration. Lightweight but durable children's chairs increase the flexibility of parents to travel with their children or use them in different rooms.

How should children's chairs and stools be cleaned?

Cleanliness is critical for children's health and children's chairs and stools are items that require regular maintenance. Staining or soiling due to frequent use is a common problem; therefore, easy-to-clean and stain-resistant materials should be preferred. For example, plastic stools stand out with their easy cleanability and lightness. When cleaning chairs and stools, harmless and environmentally friendly cleaners that will not irritate children should be used instead of aggressive chemicals.

Prioritising sustainability and environmental awareness, IKEA aims to make its products easy to maintain. For this purpose, children's chair models with washable covers should be preferred. Thus, the covers can be removed and washed regularly and the life of the chairs can be extended. The natural shine of children's stools can be preserved by using special wood cleaners recommended for wooden materials.

During cleaning, the corners and edges of the chairs and stools should also be carefully wiped. Crumbs and dust that may accumulate here may lead to an accumulation of dirt that is overlooked by parents over time. For this reason, detailed cleaning is important both visually and in terms of hygienic standards. The chair legs should also be checked regularly to ensure that the chair is stable and safe.

In the case of children's chairs and stools designed with cleaning in mind, models that can be disassembled or have modular parts allow for deep cleaning. All these details are essential for children to spend time in a healthy environment. The cleanliness of chairs and stools is of great importance both in terms of aesthetics and functionality, and this plays a key role in keeping a children's room clean and tidy.

What should be considered when buying children's chairs and stools?

Choosing the right furniture during the growth and development periods of children is of great importance for their comfort and health. The children's chair or baby stool to be purchased should be made of non-toxic materials that provide safety when getting up and sitting on it, have a robust structure against the risk of breakage or tipping over, and are made of non-toxic materials. Parents should consider not only aesthetics but also functionality and ergonomics when choosing a product. Designs that do not contain sticking or protruding parts and facilitate the movements of the child come to the fore.

It is important to remember that the selected products must be durable and stable in order to be used safely by children. Children's chair models and stools should be designed to minimise bumps and falls and should be made of easily cleanable materials. Considering the possibility of food and beverage spillage on them, it is important to choose products with stain-resistant and antimicrobial surfaces in order to maintain a hygienic environment.

The feet should be fixed and non-slip soles and should be manufactured to be resistant even to your child's active use. It will be advantageous for the children's stool or chair to be compatible with other furniture and decoration in the house in order to provide a visual integrity. Additional features such as height adjustment are a useful addition so that your child can use the chair or stool as they grow.

The height and width of the seat should be such that the child can comfortably place his/her feet on the floor and stay balanced when sitting. Small baby chair options made of resistant and environmentally friendly materials contribute to environmental sustainability as well as the comfort they provide. Such issues are increasingly emphasised by parents with the aim of leaving a more liveable world for future generations.

In order to get maximum benefit from the chair or stool to be purchased, it should be preferred that the product has a usability design in line with the personal needs of the child. For example, for an active child, more robust models that give freedom of movement are suitable, while for a child who spends time with artistic endeavours, designs with armrests or material storage areas can be advantageous. IKEA's wide range of products includes many models of children's chairs and stools to suit different needs and tastes.

Furniture that is specially made for children and designed according to their size plays a major role in developing their sense of independence. The fact that the furniture to be purchased is ergonomic for the child helps to protect the health of the back and spine by supporting their body posture correctly. For this reason, parents should consider the anatomical structure of the child along with aesthetics and functionality when choosing.

One of the most important issues when purchasing a children's stool or chair that children can safely use is that the product in question has successfully passed safety tests and is certified. Products approved in accordance with standards such as TSE and CE are preferred in terms of safety of use. It is important for parents to consider such safety and quality standards when making product choices. Since every child has unique needs, you can find children's chairs and stools that will offer suitable solutions to these needs in IKEA's wide range of products.
