Block tables, also known as building block tables, are small tables made for children to play with. These tables are commonly made with a grid surface on which building blocks can be stacked neatly. These grids prevent small blocks from sliding off the table, as well as encouraging younger children to build structures more easily. Some tables have reversible surfaces, which provide a smooth surface as well for drawing and other activities.

These tables are usually placed in office settings or other formal areas where adults may conduct business. Parents can be assured that their children are safely occupied with engaging activities. With the colors and shapes that come with many tables, children are sure to be captivated, keeping their attention strictly on quiet play.

Specifications of Block Tables

Block tables generally come with a sizable set of building blocks. There are a few other types of building blocks that fit universally onto the table. Depending on the space available for placement, block tables come in various sizes. They are generally between 16 and 18 inches in height, and can come in various lengths and widths.

These tables are available at certain equipment stores, including office supply stores and restaurant or concession equipment companies. Some tables may not include chairs, so be sure to look at the specifications for what you prefer.
