Did Muji Have Kids Furniture Before? Because They Have It Now

Maybe I just didn't notice Muji's kids furniture when we were in Japan because it was so plain-looking.

The plain, square-legged pine table sure is plain-looking.

And the most notable thing to be said about the rounded leg table and chair made out of beech is that they look like they'd be great for a pre-school.

But seriously, I stared long and hard at Muji's cardboard modular storage system every time I got near it, trying to figure out how I could bring enough of it home to be useful. So I think I'd remember a folding cardboard kids bench as awesome as this one. Awesome and also plain.

No, it must be new, or else I would have brought some home by now.

I seem to remember rocking chairs or something like that but all this looks new... the folding bench in particular. A couple of those would rock for using as the base of a DIY kitchen playset; the gears are turning already...
