This is an open source kindergarten furniture kit.
This is an open source kindergarten furniture kit. The kit supports self-organized kindergartens to easily build their own safe and kid-friendly furniture with the use of a fablab laser cutter and simple assembly guidelines.
All furniture is made without glue and screws, plus it is lightweight and easy to move around. The kit includes a cube sit, a bench seat, a floor bed, a trapezoid table, and a heater cover. Our kit is inspired by the Montessori Method which believes furniture should be made of natural materials like wood and should be child size and lightweight to stimulate children's autonomy.
