Things You Need to Know about Ergo Chairs for Children (Size Cart)

We wrote this article with the purpose that you can find the correct height ergonomic desk and chair for your customers' children to get them in the correct posture. The advantage of an adjustable height student desk is that as your child grows in height, you can always use it!

How tall should a desk be for a child?

A proper desk should always match human bodies and be comfortable when they are sitting on it. The height of a study desk, which is always the first thing that parents consider, depends on the kid’s height (see Table 1). Assuming that the average height of a male/female 6th grader is between 130~160cm, we can see a recommended desk height is about 65cm and a seat height is about 38cm. The most proper height of the chair and desk enables the kid not to spin down too much for writing or reading.

However, as kids grow taller real quick, they will need bigger and taller desks and chairs to make them sit comfortably again. Kids are very likely to form bad sitting posture and cause health problems such as soreness, back pain, and span pressure after remaining seated for an average of 7 to 8 hours daily.

Here are the height of children's tables and chairs dimensions you should keep in mind when buying your children’s furniture.

Ergonomic chairs and desks

If a desk and chair set are height adjustable, it can save parents’ costs on purchasing different desks and chairs throughout the years. In fact, height adjustability is the most basic dimension of ergonomic desks and chairs. After adjusting the chair to the most proper height settings, kids can feel steady lumbar support from the chair’s back. A study shows children nowadays spend more than 60% of their daily time inactive. More and more parents and schools are concerned about this phenomenon, followed by an increasing number of standing desks introduced in tutoring scenarios and homes. Standing desks enable children to stand regularly and enactive their bodies. This study also demonstrates that kid groups who use standing desks are proved higher frequency of transition of sit-and-stand. In other words, their bodies are more active with ergonomic desks.

What else a good kid’s desk can offer?

In addition to the more body-friendly functions that ergonomic desks and chairs offer compared to normal ones, the market has witnessed various designs of ergonomic children’s desk and chair sets with accessories. Good designs are reasonable and beneficial to users. For example, some desks offer drawers for storage, some come with an integrated compartment to expand the surface, and some are equipped with accessories such as a bag hook and bottle holder. Ideally, kids should be able to select an ergonomic desk and chair set that suits him/her best. LUMI is also working on kid’s adjustable desk and chair set variety expansion (click here to view) in order to offer our customers more options.
