Instruction
1. Pay attention to the table size. It is the best of all to choose the table made especially for children of this age category. The child only begins to study therefore it is important that it was convenient to it to do homework. The table should not be too big or, on the contrary, too small. On it there has to be enough place for textbooks, notebooks, pencils, handles and other office supplies. Track that the child's elbows freely laid down on a table surface, and it had not to last. The table-top has to be in the sitting family way slightly lower than the level of a breast. Besides, from time to time you should help the child with homework performance therefore at a table there has to be enough place and for you.
2. Consider existence of the computer on a table. As computer education is one of obligatory components of the modern school curriculum, each child has to have a personal computer. Therefore when choosing a desk consider that, besides textbooks and notebooks, on it there has to be a place for the monitor, the keyboard and a mouse. The system unit is usually put under a table, and here other parts will constantly be on a table-top. They should not prevent the child to do homework therefore it is the best of all to buy the generalized option of a written and computer table. It, as a rule, will be rather big to place on it both the monitor, and textbooks with notebooks. It is also best of all to choose a table with a special sliding compartment for the keyboard and a support for the system unit.
3. Choose a table with the built-in regiments and lockers. The first grader usually needs very many office supplies - it is both books, and a notebook, and copy-books, and objects for hand-made articles (color paper, plasticine, pencils and so forth). In order that all this did not encumber a table, take care of existence of sliding boxes for trifles and the built-in shelves for books and notebooks. It is good if there is a special shelf for disks and the holder for textbooks.
4. Pay attention to table material. It can be chipboard, MDF, natural wood or glass. Chipboard – one of the cheapest materials, which, first, not really strong, secondly, short-lived, and, thirdly, not the safest in terms of ecology as substance formaldehyde is its part. MDF is a material in the form of tiles which is made by means of pressing of wood shaving. It is a little safer, than chipboard, however not such strong and eco-friendly as natural wood. The real tree table will serve to you and your child very long. To you it is not necessary to take to break a glass table as there is always a risk furniture from glass and to be wounded. Besides, glass – very cold material that can cause discomfort to the child.
5. Buy a table in the presence of the child. It is the best of all to go to furniture store for the choice of a desk with the child as exactly to it behind it to sit and work. Let your child will try to sit down at a table directly in shop and will independently estimate as far as it is convenient to it. Besides, providing to the kid the independent choice, you practically provide to future table the status of "darling", thereby increasing comfort and desire to study at the child already from the first class.
