Inspired by the 'Nanny Rocker’ furniture popular in the early 1800s, the ‘Kid-e-Rock-er’ is a comfortable and functional product designed and developed to increase op-portunity for parent and child bonding with added comfort for both.

Kid-e-rocker was manufactured using Ash, and the contrast of traditional materials and a minimal design remains in keeping with current trends. A piece of furniture which is comfortable and functional for both parent and child. The incorporation of an addition-al child’s chair which can be adjusted and maneuvered to suit the needs of the user, ultimately promotes greater interaction be-tween parent and child.
