Light and bright or bold monochrome, make your childrens bookcase the focal point of your design or have it blend into the background. Whatever your layout, there is bound to be a book storage solution to suit your little one and their bedroom. From a minimalist white book shelf beside their bed to something more substantial like our white childrens bookcase, the choice is yours. Create cosy reading nooks under their cabin bed or inside their teepee, helping your little one develop their love for reading. Story time is a great way of spending quality time with your little one before bed, but it doesn’t have to be reserved for the end of the day. For younger children, reading can form part of their play or allow them to have some down time during their busy day. Our white childrens bookcase truly is a blank canvas, perfect for book storage but also for displaying arts and crafts, photo frames or ornaments safely out of harm's way. If you want to position things within arms reach, our white book shelf is perfect for putting beside their bed or in a cosy reading corner. A kids book shelf truly is a staple in any childhood bedroom, laying the foundations for their education later in life. The good thing about a kids book shelf is that it can even be shared among siblings who are close in age. For instance, why not try giving the older sibling the top half of their kids book shelf and the youngest the lower half?

Book Boxes

Book boxes are another popular solution for children’s book storage. Have you considered incorporating a book box into your design?

  • Suitable for children of all ages but perfect for younger age groups, a book box encourages your child to help themselves to their books unaided.
  • This teaches them that reading is something fun they can do independently, rather than solely being associated with bedtime.
  • A book box can also be a great way of teaching younger children to help take care of their books - toddlers will enjoy picking their books off the floor and putting them away independently.
  • All of these factors mean that book boxes make great book storage solutions for children of all ages.

1. HOW HIGH SHOULD MY CHILDREN’S BOOKCASE BE?

Ideally you should keep your childrens bookcase at a child-friendly height, making sure a majority of the shelves are within their reach. If you decide to opt for a larger, more adult-sized bookcase for increased storage purposes, don’t worry about it! Both options work equally as well, just make sure to position your little one’s favourite books well within their reach.

2. AT WHAT AGE SHOULD I PURCHASE MY CHILD THEIR OWN CHILDRENS BOOKCASE?

The truth is, you’re never too young for books. Your little one might even be lucky enough to receive a few as gifts when they are born. It’s never too early to get into the habit of reading, studies show that even just a few minutes a day can have a lasting impact. If you can, incorporate a childrens bookcase or a smaller area for book storage into their very first bedroom or nursery. If you’re short on space, you could consider setting up a reading corner in your living area, or even clearing a shelf or two of your own bookcase for their little library!

3. WHAT MATERIAL SHOULD I CHOOSE FOR MY CHILD’S BOOKCASE?

These days, bookcases can be made from all kinds of materials, from wood to plastic, or even fabric. The most important thing is choosing materials that are high quality and sustainable. At Petite Amélie, our products are designed using premium materials that last. This means that our products are durable, sustainable, but most importantly safe for your little ones no matter what their age is.
