Get All Those Lego Bricks Off the Floor: Use One of These Play Tables Instead (2025)

Made of engineered wood, this table holds Lego bricks and also gives kids a roughly two-foot-square tabletop on which to build. The lid is reversible with the Lego platform facing up or a plain wood side so it becomes a little coffee table (if it's in your family room) or craft table (if it's in the playroom).

We like that this comes with 195 (generic) bricks, looks good and is an affordable way to encourage building for a child age 3 or older. It does have to be assembled but comes together in less than a half hour. The entire thing weighs less than 3 pounds, so it's easy to move around but not super substantial. If kids roughhouse with this or try to sit on it, it's likely to break — but that's a common-sense reminder that holds true for many play tables.

KidKraft also makes a version that reverses to a train table (it has a little town scene, and your child can put wooden train tracks and a toy train on top) rather than a plain wooden side. Ages 3+

Dimensions: 25" x 23.5" x 16" | Weight: 2.2 lbs

If you're looking to keep two kids occupied building together, we like this colorful, affordable choice. They can build on the round tabletop using bricks stored in the center and it comes with two chairs and a flat lid that can sit on top to turn this into a craft table.

The primary colors might lend themselves more to a playroom or a kid's bedroom than the living room. This one does not come with blocks, but you may already have plenty of those. If you prefer, there is also a square version. Ages 3 to 8

Dimensions: 23" across x 17" tall, seats are 10" off the ground | Weight: 13.4 lbs

This is an official partnership between the Lego brand and Pottery Barn Kids. You'll pay a premium price, but the top is two 16-inch square Lego-brand baseplates and the bins come with removable dividers to help your child better store and sort their bricks.

The wooden set is on wheels (they're on the sides) and can roll under your child's bed or under the couch. There's also a smaller square Lego cubby and stacking Lego storage in the same line. Ages 3+

Dimensions: 34" x 16" x 8" | Weight: 40 lbs

Though this table can adapt for any kind of play, we feel that the deep, rolling storage bins (18" x 25"x 10") and wide, flat top make it especially great for storing and building Lego projects. Raised edges keep the bricks from falling over the tabletop. You may want to buy and add Lego baseplates to help them build.

It comes with 15-inch legs, shown, so kids can kneel while they work, but you can buy 24-inch Grow-With-You Legs if you want to raise this up as they get older or so they can sit to play.

Because it's large this one is great for up to four kids. It comes in four shades: white, gray and light and dark wood. Ages 3+

Dimensions: 48.5" x 32.5" x 15" (or 24" legs, sold separately) | Weight: 35 lbs

Before they can safely advance to Lego bricks, toddlers can play with the chunkier Duplo blocks made by the Lego company for kids under age 4. The top of this table is made to grip Duplo blocks so your youngster can get some stability and build tall creations. This comes with a small chair and 128 Duplo-sized (generic) blocks to get them started, plus four storage bins that can hang off the sides of the table.

Note that this is a very small table, about a foot and a half on each side, so it's not going to be very useful past the preschool years. There are two other color options, navy and yellow and pink and yellow. Ages 2+

Dimensions: 17.7" x 17.7" x 17" | Weight: 8.7 lbs

There's a popular online "hack" where people turn the IKEA FLISAT into a Lego table, but this one from Delta Children is the same price and already comes with the brick-building top, plus two small storage bins. And this comes with some 100 generic bricks plus a brick separating tool. There's no assembly or DIY magic required.

The legs raise it up about 14 inches, but you can also fold the legs and store this under your child's bed or the couch. Ages 3+

Dimensions: 18.5" x 32.5" x 14.5" | Weight: 28 lbs

Because it's taller than others on our list — 22.5 inches high — this Lego table could be good for an older child who likes to sit or stand while building with bricks. Turn over the Lego-compatible platform and use the reverse side with the included paper roll to encourage art and craft projects.

Compartments on the far side and under the tabletop are handy for storing bricks as well as markers, crayons and pencils. This can be an older child's homework station too.

It does not come with any chairs or with any blocks. There is a white version of the play table if you prefer that to the natural pine, shown. Ages 3+

Dimensions: 34" x 24" x 22.5" | Weight: 24 lbs

This is a larger, longer version of our best overall pick, with storage via three separate bins. It requires more assembly (the brand asks that you give yourself a half hour to an hour) and is more expensive, but it comes with 200 generic bricks and gives kids more room to play than the brand's smaller version.

We especially like that, when fully open, there are two separate sides for building with storage in the middle, making it nice for a playdate or siblings. But you can also slide the two sides together, covering the middle storage but allowing for one larger build. Ages 3+

Dimensions: 19" x 35.5" x 15.4" | Weight: 26.5 lbs

Our Good Housekeeping Institute Parenting Lab tests hundreds of toys and gifts each year. We evaluated 20 Lego table options and recommend these eight based on durability and value.

When considering what makes a great table for kids who like building and playing with Lego, we look for tables by reputable brands that adhere to US safety standards. Though we appreciate that some parents want to build their own Lego table, we stuck to tables with a brick-compatible top or with a rim to keep Lego bricks contained, and looked for tables that include storage.

When you want to give your kid a dedicated spot for brick-building, consider:

✔️ Age grading and size: If your child is still a toddler, be sure to get a table that's appropriately short and easy for them to reach. If siblings will want to play together, consider one with a larger surface area.

✔️ Storage possibilities: As parents ourselves, we're fans of tables where the bricks can be contained and hidden out of sight whether in bins, drawers or under-lid compartments.

✔️ Material: Wooden Lego tables are nice because they look like real furniture. Plastic looks cheaper but then again, it's very easy to clean and you know it will hold up to rough play.

✔️ Surface: If the table has a top that looks like bricks can stick to it, be sure that it will properly work with Lego if that's what you're buying it for, or with Duplos if your kids use those.

In online reviews we've noticed some complaints about seams — where two brick-building sheets come together do not always line up perfectly, so sometimes it is tough for kids to build all the way across. Just something to know in advance!

✔️ Decor: If you'll be putting your Lego table in the living room or family room, you might want one that reverses to a plain-colored top and can double as a little coffee table.

✔️ Extras: You might be excited for a Lego table that comes with a bunch of bricks. Or you may have enough bricks in your house already, and might be more grateful for a chair or the ability to fit the table under a bed.

The Good Housekeeping Institute tests and recommends hundreds of products for families every year, and we publish a list of the Best Toys and our Parenting Awards annually.
