I must say a stand out for me which I fell in love with and have order for both my children are the le Baron chairs by hanke. This chair is the ultimate of all children's chairs. I can just see this chair in the corner of my kids bedrooms as a designer piece, and yes these are now available at The Little Kidz Closet.

The le baron chair is suitable for children from 1 year and older. The adjustable height of the chair ensures that even the smaller 1 year old children can sit in the chair comfortably.

Children are extremely fond of curved shapes, sheltered places where they feel secure and in which they can actually hide away and feel comfortable. This is exactly what Le Baron chair offers... and much more. The space of the chair provides all characteristics for children to feel at ease. It provides a sheltered spot and guarantees an individual space in the (living) room or your child's bedroom. The chair provides comfortable seating possibilities, as the chair continuous to provide comfort in many different positions. A child can sit up straight and be actively involved in i.e. reading a book; however the chair also provides the possibility to snuggle up or to let the legs hang out, while being supported by the arm supports!
