Furniture World Magazine

Chairs aren’t just for sitting on anymore. At least that’s what the creators behind Take a Seat® want you to see in their sharp, innovative designs featured in their new line of children’s furniture. Their furniture is disguised as tugboats, sardines, and even bookworms, just to name a few. Take a Seat® has erupted with incredible force in the children’s furniture industry with a new collection of interactive chairs, sofas and ottomans that are sure to wow parents almost as much as they are going to win over children. The creators of Take a Seat® have raised the bar of excellence in the field by pioneering the idea of creating furniture for children that is not only comfortable, durable and charming but also exciting, interactive, and facilitate childhood development as well. Take a Seat® is finally bringing their incredible furniture to the retail market. In a place full of inspiring stories so began this simple story behind Take a Seat®. The San Diego Public Library allows the many eager minds of small children to enjoy a book during story time. The problem Robert Milberg, founder of Take a Seat®, found was that there was not enough comfortable seating available for the children to sit and listen to their favorite adventures be read aloud. Milberg explains, “Libraries simply do not have enough resources to dedicate a whole area just for story time. Children ended up on sitting on the floor.” Milberg created a small couch with easy to pull out chairs made of comfortable and durable high-density foam. When story time was over, the chairs were simply put back in place on a larger unit, and easily stored away. Soon Milberg was getting calls from other local libraries, doctors offices, daycare centers, schools, and parents wanting this comfortable, easy to manage furniture. Parents love Take a Seat® furniture because of it’s unique designs and wonderful functional use. Most children’s furniture made out of high-density foam is plain and for functional purposes only. But Take a Seat® creates furniture that is exciting and fun to play with. Nick Barrone, co-owner of Take a Seat®, reveals, “Adults just adore this stuff because it brings them back to their childhood!” The interaction that children have with the Take a Seat® furniture is another key aspect in making it a completely original concept, because as children interact, they are developing their large motor skills at the same time. Barrone, explains, “With Take a Seat, children are actually interacting with the furniture. Most other children’s furniture is pretty passive. Putting the furniture together and taking it apart entertain children. At the same time, their mind is excited, creating more functional activity in the brain.” Exercising these large motor skills will fuel the development of the brain, yielding long-term benefits for the child, socially, physically and mentallyChildren, however, have their own reasons for loving Take a Seat® creations. The lightweight high-density foam is easy to pick up and play with, but the most captivating aspect of the furniture, are the unique and playful shapes that come in fantastic colors. ~The delightful Geo designs are made circular cushions in the center of two larger pieces that, when taken apart, reveal two bright, comfortable chairs or ottomans. ~The colorful Birdfish can be quickly converted from a lovable toy to two lounge chairs. ~The Tugboat displays bright red hull of the boat separates into two wonderful chairs, while the yellow cabin and vivid blue smoke stack come apart to form another two seats or cushions. ~The Sardine Can ensures that kids will have so much fun sitting or playing with the four sardine cushions packed snugly in a can.
