What should be the height of the child's chair and table (table)

In order to take care of our child's health and make it easier for him to do his homework, we - parents - must provide children with furniture that adapts to the child's physiology, especially the child's height and proportions.

Unfortunately, the opposite is often the case – we force children to adapt to the workplace by sitting them on chairs of inappropriate height and at desks of inappropriate height.

Use this table to determine if your child is sitting correctly on a daily basis and, as the child grows, do not forget to adjust the child's workplace - both the height of the table top and the chair.
