Safe Kid Furniture - Foam Filled Bean Bag Chairs

Reasons Why Foam Filled Bean Bag Chairs are Safe Kid Furniture

As adults, we often exhibit a considerable amount of self-control in how we use our furniture. Your kids, however, may not exhibit the same restraint that you do. For that reason, you may want to consider getting them their own furniture so that they can be uninhibited, comfortable, and safe.



Furniture for adults many times is not suitable for young children:

  • it is too big for them to get up into
  • it is too easy for them to fall out of
  • expensive fabrics can be easily damaged by dirty shoes and dirty, sticky fingers
  • wooden and metal framework and trim can cause injuries.




If you are looking for safe kid furniture, frameless foam-filled furniture is what you want to shop for. Foam furniture is perfect for children, featuring:

  • no hard surfaces
  • soft cotton blend fabrics that are easily kept clean
  • double stitched seams for durability
  • dual, locked zippers for safety
  • high-quality urethane foam fill that is long-lasting and supportive
  • available as either a traditional-shaped bean bag chair or as an arm chair.




Today’s foam-filled furniture for children, however, is nothing like the bean bag chairs that you might have encountered in the past. While bean bags filled with polystyrene beans (i.e., “packing peanuts”) need to be replaced, sometimes within as little as one year, urethane foam fill lasts forever.




Tink Chairs and Tink Couches – for children 2 to 6 years of age

The Tink Chair is more than just a bean bag chair. It is a frameless, foam-filled arm chair designed for the youngest members of the family. Available in five dozen colors, fabrics, and patterns, it can be made to match any playroom or family room décor. These chairs are not only soft, but also light, so you can move them into your living room if your child prefers sitting on his own chair when you watch movies, read a book, or play games together. If your child is very social and entertains a lot, you will want to consider the Tink Couch and, perhaps, a matching Ottoman.




Fuf Chairs – a better bean bag chair in sizes to fit everyone

Fuf (pronounced “Foof”) Chairs are the original foam-filled bean bag chair. They are available from Extra Small (the “2-Footer”) to Extra Extra Large (the “7-Footer”). Fuf Chairs also offer an optional inner liner, which allows you to remove the outer cover for laundering (particularly important when your household includes children and pets). Urethane foam filler is better because:


  • it can be “Re-Foofed” again and again, providing individualized seating for everyone
  • it is quiet ... there is no rustling noise as you change positions
  • the support that urethane foam provides is substantial enough that a big man can sit in a Large Fuf Chair and not "bottom out"
  • there are no hard edges or pressure points, so it serves as comfortable seating for anyone with special needs.




When shopping for safe kid furniture, the comfort and quality of Tink Chairs and Fuf Chairs is hard to beat! All Fuf Chairs, Tink Chairs and Tink Couches are made in America and come with a one-year warranty!
