The Best Kids❜ Bean Bags for 2024

It's absolutely no secret that kids can be more than a little rough with furniture. So if you feel like you're forever telling your smalls to get off the couch, we've got the ultimate solution for you: kids' bean bags!

Bean bags might seem a little vintage, and like they'd be best placed out of sight behind the playroom door, but take it from us, they've had a serious glow-up. Coming in premium fabrics in neutral colourways to suit any existing decor, it's safe to say that kids' bean bags are making a real comeback.

We've rounded up the best kids' bean bags in Australia, and if you're only purchasing the covers, don't forget to grab your bean bag filling from Kmart!

Safety Precautions for Kids' Bean Bags

While they offer lots of fun, comfort and versatility for families, it's important to note that bean bags, and more specifically, the bean bag filling (which is usually foam/polystyrene), can pose a major choking risk to children.

When buying a beanbag, make sure the zip or fastener is child-resistant. Check that it locks into place and does not have a tab or handle that a child can use to open the bag or cover.
