Lead
There’s a moment every parent knows: a kid spots their own name on something, and suddenly it’s theirs. Their cup, their backpack — and at our house, their chair.
We’ve been stitching kids’ names onto little chairs for 26 years. It starts as a birthday or grandparent gift, becomes the chair that gets dragged to every campfire and soccer game, and usually ends up in more family photos than the couch.
Chairs sized for them
- Toddler Directors Chair by Gold Medal — the pint-size version of the classic set chair, with their name across the canvas back. The one that shows up in kitchen-helper photos.
- Kids Quad Chair by Quik Shade — their own fold-up camp chair, just like the grown-ups’.
- Kid’s Shade Chair by Quik Shade — a camp chair with its own little sunshade for the beach and the sideline.
- Kids Backpack Chair by RIO — straps onto small shoulders so they can carry it themselves (they will insist).
Made to be theirs
Pick the chair, then pick a font and thread color and type their name — the preview shows exactly how it’ll look before you order. The embroidery is stitched right into the canvas, so it survives juice, sand, and being folded up by someone who is still learning how folding works.
The chair can grow with them
Kids are hard on canvas. For the directors chair, we make a personalized replacement canvas set — same name, same font, fresh seat — so the chair they love doesn’t have to retire just because the fabric did. Every design stays in our library for reorders.
FAQ
How long does a personalized kids chair take?
When the chair’s in stock, embroidered orders ship within 2–3 business days — worth knowing when the birthday is Saturday.
What name styles work best for kids?
First names in a big, friendly font are the classic. The configurator previews every font and thread color, so you can let them pick (fair warning: they’ll pick the brightest thread we have).
Is this a good gift if I don’t know their favorite color?
You can’t really miss — the name is the gift. Grandparents order these more than anyone, usually one per grandkid so there are no arguments.
Can we replace the canvas when it wears out?
For the toddler directors chair, yes — a personalized replacement canvas set with the same name and font, matched from our design library.
