Best Desks for Kids

Let’s talk about kids desks! Honestly, there is something so exciting about creating a learning space for kids! Maybe I am thinking back to when I was a child and I loved shopping for school supplies. My kids have that same excitement about back-to-school shopping.

As many kids will be learning from home this year, one thing to consider is whether your child has a good desk! As kids get older, they tend to do homework in their rooms for less distraction.

Last year, my daughter really wanted a better desk space for her room and I can say it was worth the investment. She did her homework at her desk every night. Then, when school was all online in March, she was at her desk for a good part of each day.

Today, I will talk about how to pick the right desk for your kids. Plus, I am sharing some of the best desks for kids that I could find! Now is the time to purchase a desk for your student as there are often great deals right now.

What kind of desk does my kid need for home learning?

Will your child be learning from home this school year? This year, your child might be in home schooling, doing classes virtually or a mix of in person and online. It is nice for kids to have a dedicated desk at home to do their work.

 

Deciding on which type of desk is best for your child is a personal matter of choice. There are some things to consider when choosing the best desk for your student.

What is the best desk for my child?

• Do I plan to use the same desk for my child for their whole school career?

Are you looking for a desk that meets your child’s current needs or a desk that will grow with your child? You might decide that a smaller, less expensive desk is good for your young learner. Then, when he/she                 gets to middle school, you  might look at a large desk to carry him through the remainder of his school years.

 

• How much do I want to spend on a desk for my kid? 

  Are you looking for a desk that is under $100 or do you have a bigger budget. Think about how much you will want to spend on a kid’s desk.

 

• Will my child keep a computer on his desk? 

  Does your child have a personal computer or lap top that she keeps on her desk? You will need a desk with a larger work space to accommodate the electronics.

 

• Where will you put the desk?

  This might seem like an obvious answer if you plan to keep the desk in your child’s room. But if you are homeschooling your child, perhaps the kid’s desk will go in a common space. Either way, you want to make sure to measure how much room you will have for a new desk. This step will help ensure you get a desk that will fit in your space!

 

• Do I need a desk with storage?

  Is your priority for a large desk work space or is it a desk with a lot of storage? You may find a desk that fits both of those requirements. Or you may have to focus on one priority or the other. If your child is the collector of all things or he has a lot of school supplies, you will want to select a desk that has ample storage.

Selecting the Best Desk for Kids

Once you have answered all of these important questions, now it is time for the fun part! There are a lot of desks for kids out there but not every desk will be right for your student.

Desks with Storage

The only con of this desk option is that there is not closed storage space. You could use bins or baskets on the shelves to contain the clutter.

Desk Chairs for Kids

In addition to a desk, you will also need a desk chair for your kid. Look for options that are comfortable and are designed for smaller bodies. Your kids may spend hours a day at their desks, so you want a chair that keeps them comfortable and is good support for their bodies.

Homework Station Essentials

Last but not least, to keep your kid’s homework area REALLY organized, it is good to invest in a few organization tools. My kids love having a dry erase calendar near their desks. They can write important deadlines and keep track of what day it is on their own.

This calendar set is so functional because you can just stick the squares on a wall. You can set create any set up you would like!
