Back to School Kids’ Furniture Ideas

It’s that time of year again—back to school! Whether you homeschool your little ones or see them off to class every day, you want to set the school year off on the right foot. And what better way to do that than with furniture ideas from Ashley HomeStore?

If you homeschool, the best way for your kids to learn and be motivated is to create a smart and productive workspace for them. Do your children leave to go to school in the morning? You can keep their minds working after school with study essentials.

The addition of new furniture, accents, and lighting can really improve the design and functionality of your little one’s space. Since clutter is hard on the brain, getting rid of it can help kids concentrate. Organization also prepares them for back to school and is a welcome addition to the fall season.

Below you’ll find some of our favorite back to school kids’ furniture ideas:

Desks

Every student needs a desk—there’s nothing like the feeling of having your personal space to work. Our Kids Jr. Roll-Top Desk is a 2-piece desk and chair set that features handy storage compartments, pull-out writing board, lap drawer, two file drawers, and a pencil drawer. When they’re done with their work, they can gently close the roll-top.

Middle schoolers and teens will love the sleek style of the Perry Desk—it’s the perfect work space for study time. Two drawers and an open shelf space provide ample storage space for your work essentials. Bright white accents the drawer fronts of the ash veneer framed piece, and round wood legs keep the piece sturdy.

Encourage your children’s artistic side with the cute and colorful Artist Activity Desk. Flip up for a write-on/wipe-off board; flip down to reveal a chalkboard that doubles as a desk surface. The included art paper roll is refillable, too. And with shelf storage, supply bins, paint cups and a storage stool, little artists will have all their essential supplies close at hand.

Storage

Storage is necessary to keep books, toys, and games in order and off of the floor, and the Kids Brinx Toy Storage Organizer with Twelve Plastic Bins does the job! With 12 removal bins, it’s perfectly proportioned for the pint-sized peeps—simply remove the bins for playtime and easy cleanup.

Perfect for the playroom or a child’s bedroom, the darling Delta Children Serta Happy Home Storage Bookcase is sure to inspire hours of imaginative play—it doubles as a cute house for stuffed animals and more! This beautifully-crafted accent piece features details like a gabled roofline, picket fence trim and strong wood construction. Plus, it has an open cubby on the bottom for larger items.

Table and Chair Sets

Our pint-sized table and chair sets are perfect for play areas and homeschool rooms. A cute example is the perfectly-proportioned Kids Forest Wood Table and Four Chairs Set. Whether for snacks and meals, reading, coloring, board games, arts and crafts, or just having fun, this sturdy table and chair set for boys and girls three years and up is up for the task.

A welcome addition to a child’s bedroom, playroom or the family room, our Kids Bookrack Table and Two Chairs Set is equipped with book racks on both sides of the table for easy access to their favorite reads. This 3-piece table and chair set is perfect for coloring, crafts, or afternoon snacks.

Bunk Beds

A highly-practical kids bedroom furniture choice, bunk beds stack up great if you’re tight on space. Not to mention they’re a big hit if your kids love hosting sleepovers on the weekend! Our grown-up yet kid-friendly Halanton Twin over Twin Bunk Bed with Storage has protective guard rails with a fixed ladder for easy top bunk access. Set on casters, the under bed drawer is ideal for storing toys, clothes, and more.
