Inspired by the look of vintage ‘60s school desks, but with modern materials and human-centered functionality, Jaswig's My First StandUp is what school desks should have been all along.
My First StandUp was designed to bring movement where it’s needed most, in the formative years when our kids are best able to acquire lifelong healthy habits. To reach as many children as possible, we kept the design simple, the cost low, and made a durable and adjustable desk that would grow with children from kindergarten all the way through the middle school years. The desk can be easily and safely (no pinched fingers) adjusted up and down and up again—just lift and lock the desktop into place for a safe and stable work surface.
The desk is made entirely of natural materials, from the FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) certified birch plywood, to the low-VOC, low-formaldehyde varnish which can help maintain your indoor air quality and protect the planet.

Behind this simple desk is an audacious vision: to change our culture’s sedentary ways by getting kids up and moving at an early age. Not only is movement so vitally important to good health—physical, mental and emotional—but as every parent and teacher can tell you, when kids are given the opportunity to burn energy in a productive way, they are much better able to focus on their work. Children thrive on movement, and for some—like Jaswig cofounder Mathias, who dealt with ADD as a kid—the option to stand can make all the difference in their experience of school and feelings of success.
