    Learn More About Kids' Furniture

    Shopping from independent sellers on Etsy gives you a wide selection of handmade kid's room furniture—and many one-of-a-kind pieces are designed to your specs. Personalization, such as a name engraved on the footboard of a custom kids’ bed or painted onto a toy box, is an option with many, too. If you find an item you can personalize, simply write a brief note to the seller in the “Add Your Personalization” box.


    You and your mini-yous can have a blast exploring the unique kid-friendly furniture on Etsy. Whether you’re in the market for kids' playroom furniture or bedroom furnishings, consider some of these types of kids' room furniture:


    • Toddler beds: Help your little one rest comfortably with low-to-the-floor beds and designs made to look like a house—including attic storage for their favorite items. Some feature personalization options like their name on the frame. Others have slatted, gated, and open-side designs for easy access, like Montessori floor beds which rest low and are age-appropriate for everyone.
    • Desk tables and chairs: Kiddos can enjoy combo table-and-chair sets, activity tables, and seating such as school chairs and booster seats. Many styles are suitable for outdoor kids’ furniture as they are made from durable and waterproof materials like plastic and treated wood.
    • Benches and toy boxes: Integrate your storage solutions with beautifully handcrafted benches and toy boxes built with clever doors and lids to keep their stuff tucked away when not in use. Browse benches with storage underneath or toy boxes like wood or wicker trunks and customize them by adding their name.
    • Bookcases: Bookcases keep all of their favorite stories together. Many come in wall-mounted and freestanding designs, like Montessori-style bookshelves, which have room to lay out their books all at once and see the covers to easily identify which story is the winner.
    • Bean bag chairs: Handmade and built to last, shops on Etsy offer tons of shapes, patterns, and materials for these comfy loungers. Choose from styles like a groovy '70s-inspired bean chair or lazy sofa bean bag chairs large enough for you and the kiddos to snuggle in together.
    • Steps and stools: If your kids need a leg up to help you cook or just to get a better view on what you’re up to, browse shops for kitchen helpers with guard panels and tower slides to add to a playroom. Most steps and stools on Etsy can fold up to save space when not in use.
    • Dressers and drawers: Give their existing dresser a quick update by swapping out the handles and pulls for custom creations from the small shops on Etsy. Choose pulls that feature their favorite animals, like safari cats or dinosaurs, or go with something they’re into right now, like a particular sport.

    Sellers on Etsy are independent and hail from all over the world, so the kids' furniture you’ll see differs from shop to shop. Retro pieces, antiques, modern kids’ furniture, and more — it’s all at your fingertips.


    To begin your search, drill down through Etsy’s categories, or enter your search term in the search box. On the results page, use the filters to narrow down the options to exactly what you want. See something you like but want to continue shopping or ask someone’s opinion? Tap the heart icon in the listing to add the item to your Favorites so you can find it easily later.


    Watch for badges such as “Star Seller” and “Etsy’s Pick.” Star Sellers exceed expectations and consistently achieve high ratings for on-time shipping, quick replies, and other good business practices. If you don’t see these badges on items that interest you, bear in mind that the shop might be new and eager to earn its stripes—so you might have found a hidden gem!

    Some home and living items are small and often come pre-assembled; larger items such as kids’ bedroom furniture sets sometimes require some minor assembly. Most sellers design their furniture to be easy to assemble with a sturdy slat-and-lock system or screws and a screwdriver. If you have a specific question about the process, you can message the seller directly to lend their expertise.
