Default Children's Chair

I dug around the forum a bit and find lots of plans for "chairs" and many types, however don't see anything specifically geared towards children / kids.

I've got a 1/2 sheet of 3/4 cab. grade birch that I can't just throw away, and it's not really enough for anything else (other than a smaller project) so I was thinking of starting on some small things for my Daughter. Chair / Table, toy box, etc.

Kind of thinking something along these lines:


Does anyone have any references on plans or dimensions on something along these lines? Doesn't have to be this exact plan, this was just something I dug up as an example. Kids furniture, toys, etc. Send 'em my way!

Thanks!

That is a nice little chair. Can make a neat step stool or little ottoman as well with that plan.

Hi Noddy

Some great links to some kids chairs but I like the one you posted..

It will take the plywood you have a maybe a bit more for the back and the seat (1/4" plywood) , but it looks like a great router chair job...
A template for the sides and dado or two in the sides to hold the seat and the back and you would have it done...

Some stickers for Dainel's name from the craft store after the Laytex paint job.

see the snapshot below,,,

How about a picture or two after you have it done...

Noun / Adj / Pronoun: Luck, Postulates, Magic, things going right, finding a bag of money.

Example(s):
Bad Juju: Stealing 5 bucks from your buddy. That's bad juju. That stuff comes back to you someday. Not good. Using a broken or worn out tool.

Good juju: Thinking / being / doing happy, helping people, being generous and gracious. Sharing your wealth, knowledge, etc. (these things come back to you someday). Giving your buddy (who lost 5 bucks) a new tool.

Enjoy!
