Still, most children have one thing in common – they can’t sit still for long. “Children’s bodies are full of kinetic energy that needs to be released. Science also shows that the learning benefits from physical activity. No matter if it’s wild play before the homework or moving the body while you study,” says Anna and explains how it inspired to create the footrest in the series. “You can rock it back and forth with your feet and use it as support to sit more ergonomically.”

Kids Art SuppliesTeddyFantastic for kids’ art supplies! The ÖVNING desk organizer is lightweight, portable, and well-designed with compartments for pens, scissors, paper, and even a tablet. Keeps everything tidy and easy to carry from room to room. Durable and easy to clean, great for crafts or homework.
HIGHLY recommend!!!WendyI bought this most handy gadget to use in my sewing room. It’s perfect to hold my hand tools in a convenient location, it’s portable for travel and attending workshops, easily stored away.
I’m wishing I’d bought a couple more!
Probably my all-time favorite IKEA product!KatharineThough this appears to be marketed more towards children, I find this to be indispensable for so many things. I'm able to have all of my desk supplies neatly organized and able to store plenty of items. I have an office type scotch tape dispenser and stapler in the inner triangular section and that doesn't sag and the rest of that caddy is quite full.
I showed this to a few friends who do homeschooling and they ordered them recognizing the value. People have noted they use it for crafts and I can completely see that as well. I just find it to be incredibly versatile and probably one of the best organizing products I've ever used. Big kudos!
Perfect for my Kindle, phone, planner in one spotMartyanneI'm forever leaving things upstairs when I am downstairs and vice-versa. Now I have a nifty way to keep my things (and thoughts) in one place.
My latest toolRosemaryI love it. Easy to carry and use.
Great organizerKathyThis is working great in my craft room for organizing current projects I am working on.
Can Fit Everything!EmilyFor my home school kids this organizes and easily moves everything. This would be good for organizing home work, art station, ect.
Forget the kids, I use this on my own desk!Anonymous reviewerI work remotely, and while I do have a desk I work from, sometimes I have to move to other locations in the house and this is really convenient for moving the things I need from room to room. It also has a permanent place on my desk as an organizer and has resulted in me having everything close at hand yet still with more space on my desktop.
Grandkids love ‘emMarieOur granddaughter keeps her art supplies together in hers. Her brother keeps his Legos in his. Mom appreciates that.
Space SaverBerniceGreat organizer for limited desk space. Plus, it's soo pretty!
Creative Catch allKathyEnjoy the ability to keep bills an to do lists in this and transport from office area. As an adult not wanting to sit at a desk after 30 + years , enjoy having the ability to take it out side on a nice day.
Art organization DebraI absolutely love this little art station. I can use it watching tv, in my camper, at the kitchen table, in my craft room. It helps me take my project anywhere I need to.
Great for CraftsLindaThis bag is great for holding crafts especially if you want to carry essential with you to another location. I just fill with the basics I always use and I can grab and go and have what I need. It has enough pockets and storage areas and stands upright easily. Good value.
Perfect work from home organizerLivvyLove this for carrying all of my essentials to which ever room I choose to work from.
Not Just for DesksDonnaI saw the Ovning in an IKEA email and thought it would be perfect for crafting. I can put my supplies in the pockets and the main piece in the space between the two sides. I should have purchased two because I know my daughter will love the idea. And it was a big hit at my Crafters group meeting.
Table-Top ArtistJoseExcellent simple & basic storage solution for an aspiring artist. Enough pockets for markers and colored pencils.

Story
Get the homework started
Sometimes it can be hard to find a quiet nook and get started with homework. With the ÖVNING series, we wanted to develop smart tools so your child can easily find peace and quiet. In the room as well as in body and mind.
“When we do home visits and interview children around the world, we see that not all have the same need when they do their homework. Some work best at a desk, while others rather move around or spread out on the floor.” tells Anna Carme, who works with the range in Children’s IKEA. “That’s why quite some flexibility is needed around the homework, and that insight helped us develop ÖVNING.”
Room for lively legs
Have fun and find focus
To have your own place to study is important but it doesn’t have to be at a desk. With the desk divider and the desk accessories organizer in the ÖVNING series, it becomes easier to create an own private space that you can take with you to the dining table or the sofa – and personalize with pictures and fun things. “To have fun and move around regularly is often confused with distraction and lack of concentration. We think it’s the opposite. When the study time is flexible and feels fun, it helps the child to focus. It simply works as a reward and a positive spiral.”
