Low slatted infant / toddler chair – Nienhuis Montessori

The low slatted chair from the Nienhuis Montessori infant & toddler furniture range is specifically designed for a baby or toddler as young as 1 to 2 years. The seat of the chair is formed in a way that the child is `pushed` to sit in the right position, instead of sitting on the edge of the chair.

Entirely made by hand from birch wood, this high-quality baby / toddler slatted chair enhances any Montessori kindergarten, Nido, prepared environment or playroom at home. Many of the same concepts used in designing furniture for the older child’s environment apply in an infant / toddler environment, however due to the size and developmental age of young children there are a number of important factors that must be considered. One of the key concepts in this environment is learning to be independent.

Rather than using the traditional ‘high’ furniture, which rely on adult intervention, Montessori furniture for babies and small children is lower in height and smaller in size.

The seat of the low slatted chair is 13cm high. The chair is suitable for the Montessori prepared environment for children aged 1 year and up and is made by GAM (Gonzagarredi Montessori) for Nienhuis in Italy.
