Funky Chairs for Kids

Bean Bag Chair

• Bean bag chairs have been around for years; one reason is because they're comfortable. The soft chairs come in many different fabrics, sizes and patterns. They can be easily moved and stored. Many of them come in washable fabrics and can even withstand liquids because of the protective covering underneath the fabric. Bean bag chairs are also available in funky shapes -- such as footballs, baseballs and cars.

The Mitt Chair

• The Mitt chair is a funky chair that is in the shape of a baseball mitt. The Mitt has five finger-looking cushions that rest on a stand. It's ideal for a kid's bedroom or playroom and it fits nicely into a corner. It's light enough to be picked up and moved around and comes in various colors. The fabric is easy to clean and it comes in two sizes, a smaller one for toddlers and young kids, and a larger size for older kids and adults.

Animal Print

• Most kids like animals and there are fun, animal print chairs available. The most common animal prints for chairs are zebra and leopard print. The styles vary from armless, swivel chairs to chairs in the shape of a shoe. Animal print is always trendy and would give any room a funky look. It would be easy to get other matching furnishings to go with the chair, creating a jungle look for the room.

Rocking Chair

• Rocking chairs are a well-loved favorite. One of the benefits of a plain wooden rocking chair is that you can paint it, making it as funky as you want. If you choose to purchase one that is already painted, they come in a variety of different colors and designs. Rocking chairs also come in different sizes -- including small ones for toddlers, medium-sized ones for young kids, and larger chairs for older kids.
