Decorating can be fun, but it can be extra challenging when you have small children to consider. This collection of kid-friendly side tables will convince you that design compromise is not necessary; most of the tables below won’t be a disaster if a bit of trip-and-fall happens in your home. — Darlene from Fieldstone Hill Design
Nara Ceramic Table, Goldenrod - $195 With no sharp corners and a whole lotta shine, this is a great piece for a family-friendly home. My favorite feature is the brilliant lacquered color, which is also family friendly.
Brigitte 1-Drawer Side Table, Gray - $767 You don’t have to sacrifice glamour for a a kid-friendly home. I adore this gorgeous table’s oval shape, lovely color and useful drawer. I will definitely be keeping this one in mind for client projects.
City Slicker Neon Pink Side Table - $199 This is one for when the kiddos are past the wobbly phase. It’s the perfect way to spiff up a kids’ room or simply add fun to another room. I just completely love this glossy cube table, which is also available in navy or white.
Blake Raffia Side Table, Natural - $495 This sophisticated side table is one of my favorites. It’s wrapped in woven raffia, giving those sharp corners a bit of protection.
Moroccan Table, English Lilac - $249 I love the shape of Moroccan tables. This is one of my favorites because it has a modern style with smooth lines and comes in fabulous, bold colors. I just used this gray version in a client project.
Plum & Bow Round Dipped Side Table - $89 This paint-dipped table has a fun look and is versatile; it can be a stool or a little side table. I like that it is right on trend and comes at a great price.
Izmir Side Table - $855 A good sign that a furniture piece is kid friendly is when the description reads, “Can also be used as a stool.” Because we all know that it’s going to get used as a stool anyway! (At least at my house it is.)
Barret Tray Side Table - $410 Bring Mommy a beverage, would you, darling? How perfectly adorable and practical is this side table? The removable bar tray is my favorite feature.
Driftwood Side Table - $499 These are round and durable for the kiddos but soft, moody and rustic for the adults. I could see them used in a home that is filled with (washable!) whites galore.
Assembly Home Wire Table, Bright Green - $49 This wire table is genius. Bright color choices are a plus, but I think that the best part is that it’s lightweight. It is easy to move around the room to the perfect location.
Roulette End Table - $1,550 Before you get this beauty, be sure your child fits in and out of it — because even I want to crawl through it! I love the idea of encouraging more play in the home — and with items that happen to be gorgeous.
Warning: Seriously. Check the size first.
Jeb Jones Spool, Short - $550 Wait, are these children’s blocks? The stylish kind? How awesome are these wooden Spool stools/side tables? My favorite is the mustard. Or maybe the federal blue. Oh dear, how to choose?
Dorian Nesting Sea Grass Tables, Set of 3 - $1,260 These gorgeous sea grass nesting tables have a relaxed feel. I have always loved nesting tables because they offer flexibility. You always have the right table for the right task.
Hugo Leather Patchwork Ottoman - $960 Soft and stainproof, hides are a great solution when it comes to decorating with kids. I am always impressed by how well they repel stains.
Stone Stool, Transparent Crystal - $206.40 Pretty. Awesome colors. Polycarbonate. I love this little beauty, which is perfect whether or not you have kiddos. Buy on Houzz
Angela Woven Stool or Accent Table - $998 Made from real rope and offering a flash of color, this side table is a great fit for a waterfront or nautical-themed home. The rope and round shape provide a more forgiving surface for children.
Hexagonal Sea Grass Side Table - $99 There’s nowhere to bump yourself on this fantastic woven table/stool. And the natural material means that it can go with nearly any decor style.
Hourglass Stool or Side Table, Spring Green - $338 This fun and gorgeous table comes in a wide variety of colors, and even in an alternative shape. I love the lacquered look; a piece like this truly makes an impact.
Vitra Cork Stool - $455 This is so creative. Expose your little ones to haute decor with this cork side table. Buy on Houzz
