• Panton Junior Chair: Classic Design Meets Kids' Seating

  One-quarter the size of the classic Panton chair, the Panton Junior was never considered cost-effective enough for mass production until now. Based on Verner Panton's original drawings and specifications, the polypropylene chair comes in six different colors (the lime, light blue and orange shown above, as well as red, white and light pink), and at 24.75" high with a 13.75" seat height, it's perfectly sized for preschoolers through grade schoolers. $130 from Arango.

• What's Hatching At This Furniture Shop?

  If being a dad changed Scott Anderson, it was for the good of the environment. When daughter Georgia came along in 2004, Anderson quit his job at a telecommunications firm to become a stay-at-home dad, aware that soon the family would be moving cross country to settle in the Seattle area. Creating decorations for Georgia's room that Anderson realized would have to be portable, Hatched Egg'rs came cracking out of the egg. Read More...

• CES 2009: New Pyramat Disney Gaming Chairs And Sofa In Q3 2009

  The cool thing about CES is sometimes you see stuff that hasn't been seen by anybody before. And when I do, I then get to introduce it to you. Pyramat, maker of gaming chairs we've written about before, have announced a new partnership on a couple of new products with Disney. Read More...

• No Ponies Were Hurt in the Making of this Wing Chair

  When I was growing up I think kids' seating came in two varieties: school desk chair or beanbag. So I’ll go ahead and say the cliché, “the kids these days don’t know how good they have it.” This pony print wingback chair could very easily saddle up to your own Le Corbusier in the living room.

• Etsy Alert! The Three Bears Revisited

  One of my daughter’s new favorite books is the old school classic Goldie Locks and the Three Bears.  In our daily recitation of the tale of the Blondie and the bears, she loves to include her own “just right” with a very elongated “righhhhhhht”. It’s adorable. So this Etsy print by Sarah Jane Studios totally caught my eye.  But in this updated version of the three chairs it features a Eames dining chair “too hard”, a traditional arm chair “too soft” and what looks a lot like the “Sleepytime Rocker” from Modern Tots. You can get your own updated chair print here for $24. Posted Oct 30 2008, 02:43 PM by SunnyChanel with | with no comments Filed under: nursery, art, chairs, classic, print, etsy alert, goldie locks

• Tavo High Chair From Monte Design Is Small And Modern

  The Tavo High Chair from Monte Design is a product I missed at the ABC Kids Expo this year, and it's definitely a regret. The Tavo is a basic under-the-table high chair that looks great and doesn't look like it will take up a lot of space in  your home. Details after the jump. Read More...

• How to Roll With Clean-Up Time

  Droolicious writer Mir wasn't a fan of the OFFI rolltop bench, but I must agree to disagree by pointing out the loveliness that is the OFFI rolltop chair. I am just beginning to appreciate how much space children's toys take up and how they are always underfoot, no matter what. Furniture that does two-in-one duty has always been high on parent's list of must-haves, and this rolltop chair has the added benefit Read More...

• ABC Kids Expo 2008: The Tri-Chair 3 In 1 High Chair

  Wondering what you're going to do with that high chair once your kid outgrows it? Well, apparently there's more than one way to skin that cat. The Tri-Chair is a brand new high chair / rocking horse / desk that doesn't require anything other than the initial assembly. Stand it upright and it's a basic "at-the-table" high chair (center in the picture above). Put it on it's side and it's a rocking horse (left). Then flip it over and it's a toddler desk (right).

• ABC Kids Expo 2008: BBO2 Outdoor Kids Furniture from notNeutral

  I'm a big fan of children's product design group notNeutral, and at ABC this year they had a big announcement.

• ABC Kids Expo 2008: Kaboost Deluxe Portable Chair Booster

  We've written about Kaboost before. It's the portable chair booster that allows your child to sit at the proper height of the table, eliminating the need for a separate high chair. The new product they are showing at ABC is the Kaboost Deluxe, which is a normal Kaboost with a travel bag (sitting on the chair in the picture) in the (Deluxe only) charcoal color. Read More...

• ABC Kids Expo 2008: Stokke Baby Set

  Stokke had some new products at ABC this year, and my favorite is what they're calling the "Baby Set."

• Seating for Sports Lovin’ Kids

  When it comes to lounge chairs for kids sometimes it seems like fuzzy Tickle Me Elmo chairs and beanbags abound, with very few choices that will actually blend in with your own furniture. But here’s proof that sophisticated styling does exist for the toddler set (even if it does have soccer balls on it). Read More...

• 7 Days of Eco-Friendly Décor: Offi Rock-It Chair

  Rocking chairs are the perfect middle ground for parents who want their kids to sit still when their offspring just can’t. Think of it as controlled, contained wiggling. But before your kids can get to rocking in the Offi Rock-it Chair, they have to put it together. Read More...

• Build-A-Chair Workshop: Wood You?

But you'll have to get out your toolkit. $10 buys you the blueprints to build this 60's Era High Chair by Woodcraft Plans. They'll even throw in a Guide to Building Wood Furniture.
