Height Recommendations for Tables, Chairs and Shelves

If you're trying to match up table heights and chair heights, this should help get you started!

For home environments:

  • Your choices can vary more widely as you customize your table for your child's growth patterns. 
  • If you're sizing for two different ages, we recommend a taller table with the recommended chair height suitable for the older child, and a taller chair for the younger. For the younger child, consider a 5"-6" difference between the table and the chair.
  • For a large age gap, consider our Chowki Floor Table as a more affordable option to allow the children to have separate spaces. Infants/toddlers can't be accommodated in an ergonomic manner at the same table as an older child.
  • For advanced questions regarding sizing, feel free to contact support at +1 (833) 530-0033.
