Clark Davis grew up around a cabinet shop, often spending time in his father's growing up. After a series of moves, and inspired by his childhood love of Legos, Clark came up with the concept for Sprout kids furniture. Requiring no hardware or tools, the chairs, tables and shelves from Sprout can be assembled with ease. You can even get your kids in on the fun.
Getting the kids involved with the assembly is actually the intention. It's part of Clark's effort to inspire kids with design and building – the way he was inspired by Legos and his parents' encouragement to tinker and explore. As Davis says…
Sprout's philosophy, play.think.grow, is based on the belief that we learn by interacting with our surroundings, so we should create surroundings that lend themselves to interacting with. To some furniture is a fixture. To us it is a toy. It is a way of interacting and learning.

Store History
Sprout children’s furniture is designed to be more than just furniture; it’s a medium of creativity, a medium of discovery. The play room or nursery becomes a stimulating environment where kids learn from and explore the world around them. Leonardo da Vinci said “Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication." It is this simplicity that Sprout strives to achieve in its modern kids furniture.

I think you'd be surprised with how good kids are with an allen wrench. I just held the pieces while my then 1 year old and 3 year old did all the work to put together their own Ikea toy shelves. Sprout makes beautiful and creative furniture, but for the price, I say bring on the IKEA stuff.
I love the idea of simple furniture that kids can help put together. My toddler loves to "help" any project that my husband works on!
