Hi
Reached the point where a bookshelf is necessary to store all the kids' books. Up till now we've tossed them all into a basket on the floor.
DS will be 3 and DD is 18mo.
Would like something in natural or white wood that won't fall apart after six months or tip over too easily. Or cost a fortune.
Any help?

this sort of bookcase would probably last a lifetime but I'm afraid of DD climbing it (she is a little monkey):

homebase

then there is this one which seems safe but it may not hold much or last more than a couple of years (but it is half the price)

gltc

Help!!

hi there,

there are also nice bookshelves for children here and here but the second one might be too girly! HTH

The Tidybook bookshekves come in natural,white,blue or pink with or without letters. They hold 80something picture books apparantly. They have a 20% off sale on until the end of Jan ordered mine Sunday it came the next day . I ordered the plain white one,dd has a v small bedroom and as they are only 7cm depth it won't clutter her room at all.

The boys have Ikea natural wood Trofast units in their room,you can get a pack of 2 shelves to slot in instead of drawers. They are very deep so hold loads of picture books

Ikea have some white ones - reasonable quality and cost around £30.
