A Montessori weaning table puts a child at their own height and lets them choose. The Papaya Set Adjustable Montessori Table and Chair by Sapiens Child is the Canadian-made alternative - a child-sized table and chair set designed for eating, Montessori materials work, sensory activities, and independent play from the moment a child can sit up on their own. Available at The Sensory Supply across North America, it is made from wood (never plastic) in Vancouver, eco-friendly, non-toxic, and designed for one child from 9 months to 4 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eKey Features of the Papaya Set Montessori Table and Chair\u003cem\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eConvenient Borders to Contain and Focus\u003c\/em\u003e - Raised borders on the sides of the table keep food, materials, and toys within the work surface;
