Remember that posture is very important. A child should be positioned in a chair so that his/her back is against the chair and feet are flat on the floor. The child's arms should be placed comfortably on the desk/table. If the child's shoulders are up in the air or elbows are far out, the desk is too high. If the child has to lean over to complete his/her work, the desk is too low.
