Little people like little furniture — especially as they become more independent and begin keeping themselves entertained. A comfy toddler chair can encourage your child to sit and look through books during quiet time (especially if the chair is tucked into a cozy reading nook). Here are 11 perfectly sized toddler lounge chairs, ranging in price from budget-friendly to splurgy. (But oh, do we love that luxury option!)

Anywhere Chair in Sherpa

$90$40

West Elm’s sherpa-covered Anywhere Chair is made for cuddling. The cover is also removable and machine-washable.

$40 at West Elm

Kid’s POÄNG Armchair

$60

Minimalist parents appreciate IKEA’s mini POÄNG armchair. The birch frame and light beige cushioning fit seamlessly into a modern living room or neutral-themed kids' room.

Corduroy Club Chair

$75

This floral corduroy toddler club chair from Target would be right at home in a bohemian nursery or kids' room.

Delta Children Cozee Chair

$80

Delta’s Cozee Chair is pint-sized but roomy, with a machine-washable cover and a handle on the back so you can easily carry it from room to room.

$80 at Amazon

P’kolino Little Reader Sofa

$130

The foam Little Reader Sofa from P’kolino has room for your toddler and a sibling or friend. There are book pockets on the side, and it even folds out into a mini sleeper.

Jacey Patchwork Kids Foam Chair

$157

Like its floral cousin below, this kids' foam chair has a patchwork pattern but it’s more graphic, less country cottage.

$157 at Wayfair

Jacey Floral Kids Club Chair

$170

Want your toddler’s chair to have more pattern and pizzazz? The floral patchwork of this kids' club chair should do it! With its wooden legs, it’s also shaped more like an adult-sized club chair.

$170 at Wayfair

KidKraft Mid-Century Kid Upholstered Reading Chair & Ottoman

$180$1658% off

Mid-century enthusiasts will gravitate towards KidKraft’s two-piece toddler chair and ottoman, which nails the MCM styling but on a smaller scale. The ottoman has a spot for books, too.

$165 at Amazon

Gingham Kids Chair

$198

If you want a comfy toddler chair that would truly not look out of place in a modern farmhouse or British-inspired living room, McGee & Co’s olive-brown gingham kids chair is the perfect pick for you!

$198 at McGee & Co

Kids Sherpa Bear Chair

$399

Another sherpa chair, but this Bear Chair from Crate & Barrel features a cozy, curved back with rounded ears on an oak frame. Animal-shaped things always do it for us!

$399 at Crate & Barrel

Little Neva Chair

$849

The most luxurious toddler lounge chair on this list is undoubtedly Sixpenny’s Little Neva Chair, the mini version of their much beloved, cloudlike full-size Neva Chair. The Little Neva comes with two cleanable slipcovers, a cotton linen slipcover, and a recycled faux fur slipcover, for dual coziness.

$849 at Sixpenny
