Toddler Workbench

• Make all cuts according to the cut list.
• Add pocket holes in the ends of the Horizontal Beams and the Side Beams.
• Add pocket holes around the edges of all plywood pieces except for the Top and Doors.

Build the front of the workbench by connecting two Horizontal Beams to the two Front Legs. Attach one Horizontal Beam flush with the top of the Legs and one 2" up from the bottom of the Legs.

Build the back by connecting three Horizontal Beams to the two Back Legs. Connect one beam flush with the top of the Back Legs. The other two Horizontal Beams should be lined up with the beams from the front section. One should be 2" up from the bottom and one should be 18" up.

Connect the front and back sections with the Side Beams, attaching the beams flush with the outside edges and even with the Horizontal Beams. Attach to the front section first, then attach to the back.

If you'd like to do a two-toned look like we did, take the opportunity to stain the frame now, before connecting all the plywood pieces.

Attach the Side Plywood pieces and the Back Plywood piece using pocket screws. We recommend attaching the plywood flush with the inside edge of the boards, so you have a 1/4" indentation on the outside, which adds to the look.

Attach the Bottom Plywood to the underside of the bench using pocket screws.

Attach the two Doors to the front of the workbench using four hinges. Add a knob to each door, centered down the board and 1" in from the edge.

Attach the Top using wood glue and clamps. Put a bead of wood glue down along the upper edge of the bench and clamp down the Top.

Attach the pegboard piece to the back of the kid workbench using 1/2" or 3/4" screws.

Enjoy watching your child work on the workbench and playing with their imagination while you build something else next to them.
