10 Best Kids' Desks UK 2023 | Hartleys, Argos and More

This desk not only has a gorgeous design, but it is also extremely practical for a number of reasons. The back on the desk makes it feel like a really special place to work, and the built-in corkboard gives you somewhere for your child to stick up all their important notices. 

A combination of a drawer and shelves means you can hide away some of the stuff you don't want on display while still being able to put other bits and bobs in full view. This desk, although high thanks to the back, it not too big or too small, so will work well in most spaces. A real all-round winner in our eyes!

This desk offers superb adaptability. No matter what your child's age or the activity they're doing, they can adjust the desk to fit them. The desk and chair can move up and down, but that isn't the limit to this product's capabilities. 

The desk can be angled to suit whatever your child finds comfortable or whatever works with the activity they're doing, and underneath the desk is lots of space for storing stationery and equipment. If that amount of storage still doesn't cut it, there is also a hook to hang a bag and a cup holder for their favourite drink. 

This gorgeously-crafted wooden desk has the feel of a school desk from days gone by, but is not so traditional that it would look out of place in a modern house. The chair included is safe and secure and has a back which will support your child as they work. 

Lifting the desk top uncovers the large amount of storage space hidden underneath, and the slight lip at the back will stop pens and paper slipping off the desk, keeping everything nicely in place. There's a range of matching furniture pieces available too, should you be planning on refreshing your child's whole room. 

Children are constantly growing and it can be hard to keep up. This desk makes keeping up extremely simple, with both the desk and the chair being adjustable. It can be made to suit children as young as 3 and as old as 14, so it can be there for them for most of their young lives.

For quick storage, there is an easily-accessible shelf, although you'll need to be careful your children don't throw anything too far back as it's not always easy to see what you've shoved in there! We don't want any homework going missing...

For a tidy way of storing all of your kid's schoolwork and bits and pieces from various hobbies, go for a desk like this one. The lift-top design is so easy to operate and your child will have no excuse for not clearing up after they've used it. 

Though it is available in several finishes, this white colour means it will look at home in most rooms. Plus, it comes with a perfectly-matching stool that can you can slide under to keep out the way. It might not be the most comfortable seat, but it will work fine for younger kids. 

Do you always find that there's never enough space to store everything away neatly in your house? Well, you're in luck, because this desk comes with six huge drawers to fill with your or your child's stuff. The work surface of this desk is very large, so there will be plenty of space to work.

A side effect of all this space, however, is that you do end up with rather a large desk to try and fit in your house, which might not be possible for those working with smaller houses and rooms. 

The sleek design of this desk means it will slide into any maturing child's room and look like it belongs. It comes with two good-sized drawers for storing books and stationery, but if you want pens to be more accessible, there are holes at the back of the desk that act as pen holders. 

The solid birch material will make this desk brilliantly sturdy, but it is quite basic and perhaps too sophisticated and grown-up for some children. Smaller kids might also struggle with the thickness of the desk which could force their arms to sit higher than they would ideally like. 

With this product, you get a desk space and stool all built into one. Designed with younger kids in mind, it is a great space for colouring and painting and the plastic material makes it easy to wipe off any felt-tip marks or paint stains.

It will be convenient at times to have the desk and stool attached, but there might be occasions where your child wants to adjust their position and they won't be able to. This desk is very much for young kids only, and as a result, it is very plastic-looking and not the most stylish of choices.

Going for a simple white desk means that it will go in most rooms. This desk has a standard shape and is not too big, but still has plenty of surface space for books, laptops and other desk essentials. Considering it is made in part from solid pine, it is one of the cheaper top-quality options. 

With their charming heart detailing, the two drawers on this desk are pretty and useful, but they are quite small. And although the heart might appeal to some, it might make others – particularly some boys – less enthusiastic. 

If your child is still young but needs a place to read, colour or paint, this fun desk and chair combo could be the answer. Suitable for little ones under 5, this desk magically transforms into a comfy armchair with a simple manoeuvring of the desk, so easily that a toddler could manage it. 

The drawback of a desk like this is that it has no storage, so books and pens will have to go elsewhere, and while it's fine for basic activities, the faux leather material is not the best work surface for writing.
