Kids are resilient, and their sense of adaptability is an astounding feat to observe. They tackle challenges with a refreshing mindset, even if their perception of normal life has been altered as of late. From socializing with friends online, embracing new ways of creative play at home, to continuing their education online, we’re looking to the little ones for inspiration on how to tackle adversity in our adult lives. No one understands this best like Pottery Barn Kids (PBK), as the brand is built around creating furniture that perfectly adapts to children’s needs. They understand that your child’s bedroom is more than just a place to sleep. It’s where they will spend their time playing, learning, relaxing and daydreaming.
Fun, functional and most importantly, safe, PBK believes that building the perfect space for children should be easy. They go to great lengths to design and create products that are both stylish and problem-solving. In doing so, they are giving children the ideal space to thrive, no matter what’s going on in the outside world. Once they’ve entered their personal home space, they are guaranteed a safe, healthy and happy space to grow.
Now more than ever, every parent wants their children’s space to be comfy, cozy, and safe. PBK delivers on the promise of the healthiest bedroom, as their products are crafted to promote cleaner air and are healthier on the environment on a larger scale. All of PBK’s furniture adheres to the strictest safety and environmental standards, with most furniture lines being GREENGUARD Gold Certified, meaning their materials have low chemical emissions throughout the home. It doesn’t end here, as PBK also offers a vast array of organic Global Organic Textile Standards (GOTS) and Better Cotton Initiative certification (BCI)-certified bedding and textiles. This ensures that cotton is responsibly sourced, and contains no chemicals in the creation process, ensuring the safest and softest fabrics and textiles for your little ones.
The space to play
Whether playing alone or with their siblings, having the space for independent play fosters a positive environment for children. While your little ones might be spending more time indoors these days, now is perhaps the perfect opportunity to enhance their space with more playtime opportunities. The latest research also supports this notion, as independent play teaches children self-reliance, encourages their creativity and imagination, and even improves focus.
It all begins with the right playtable, consider it your children’s blank canvas to daydream and discover independently. The Carolina Grow-with-you Activity Table is as fun as it is functional. PBK knows that the kids grow up fast, so with its adjustable heights, the Carolina activity table will grow with your little one, allowing space for rolling, under- table storage carts, and adding play chairs to perfect the setup. Turn the storage carts into already-set up sensory bins, and there will be plenty more playtime on hand! Designate storage for crayons, blocks, and craft materials, and let their imaginations take the lead. Lunchtime? The Carolina Activity Table can double for mealtimes too.
Sometimes, your kid just wants to relax with a good read, or they just want to sit and let their minds wander a little longer before bedtime, and this is how the Anywhere Chair perfectly fits in. Available in three sizes, give your little ones a chair that’s entirely their own, as the super cozy comfy, and movable Anywhere Chair looks amazing wherever it is placed in your home. Give your little one a sense of true ownership of their Anywhere Chair by taking advantage of PBK’s amazing monogramming service.
