Description

Furniture is among the oldest art objects that have been used by human society. Various factors such as lighting, acoustics, sitting and many other things are considered the main determinants of children's health and their successful education. Although people spend most of the time sitting in them, subjects still do not pay proper attention to their ergonomic aspects. Dimensional suitability and the use of the right materials in furniture increases concentration and makes the child more comfortable during their activities. The study is focused on the most sensitive level of society, "children", who are often subject to ergonomic problems during their stay in kindergartens. The data of the study were collected in public and private kindergartens in the region of Ferizaj. The results of the study are of interest to the whole society, and especially to professionals in this field.
