“In my personal focus of working with children with attention and sensory challenges (such as autism or ADHD), the enclosed panels on the POD Jr ensure immediate visual stimulation is minimized, providing a calm area to focus and enabling learning to take place. The enclosed back also provides a sense of space and security, which can be comforting and supportive for all children, with unique benefit to those with sensory processing difficulties.
I believe the POD Jr Kid’s Desk is a great tool, and I highly recommend the product for your space.”
Steph Reed, Autism Specialist Teacher and Consultant
By creating spaces that are theirs and theirs alone, kids not only feel an added layer of both creativity and safety, but also feel like they’re in control of their surroundings.
Innate within each of us, no matter our age, is the desire for refuge. In prehistoric times, that desire was within us for survival, but today it’s often sparked by sensory overload instead.
This understanding of human behavior is why the POD Jr works so well. While providing the practical work space to get tasks done, the POD is also designed to provide a sense of security by being placed IN the work station rather than being placed AT the work station.
Modeled after the revolutionary original design of the POD Study Carrel for libraries and public spaces, our team is eager to introduce the POD Jr, a specialized adaptation of the POD design for young learners.
Maintaining the signature curved aesthetic, the POD Jr provides children with their own sanctuary to do homework, color, read, create, and do hybrid or virtual learning without distraction. The adjustable seat and solid construction ensures this work station will fit children of all sizes for a great length of time.
For years, the POD has been our most requested product because it simply works better than the traditional desk or carrel design. We can’t wait to hear how much your children love their POD as well!
Universities, Public Libraries and Schools Using the Original POD
Since we launched the original POD Study Carrel in 2015, we have seen it rapidly become our most popular design as hundreds of institutions have made the leap from traditional carrels to the modern, space-effective, productivity-focused design of the POD.
In fact, 86% of students have told us they’d prefer using a POD, with its side entrances, over a traditional study carrel.
This legacy of innovation continues on with the POD Jr, as we make a design that has been revolutionary for so many libraries and higher education institutions available and accessible to young learners at home.
