Friendsgiving Kids' Table & Chair Rentals in New Jersey & New York

Four families, eleven kids, one apartment. A Friendsgiving with kids needs a table their size more than it needs another centerpiece, and we bring it, set it up and take it away after.

Friendsgiving is the loosest dinner of the season and the hardest one to seat. The guest list is friends, not family, so the children often don't know each other yet. Everyone brings a dish, nobody owns enough chairs, and the grown-ups want to linger over the second bottle of wine while the kids want down from a table built for adults.

We rent the kids' tables and chairs that fix that: child-height tables, little chairs, a toddler table and a high chair, delivered and set up before your guests arrive anywhere in NJ and NY, and picked up afterwards. We're not the party planners — we rent the kids' tables, chairs and dessert carts; the food, place settings and fall styling are yours.

Why the kids get their own table at Friendsgiving

At a family Thanksgiving the cousins already know the routine. At a Friendsgiving the children may be meeting for the first time, and nothing breaks the ice faster than sitting together at a table that fits them. Feet reach the floor, elbows reach the table, and they can serve themselves and get down to play without an adult lifting anyone.

• The grown-ups get to stay at the table. When the children have their own seats nearby, dinner can run long without anyone refereeing a dining chair.
• Mixed ages, one place. A kids' table, a low toddler table and a high chair side by side means every child from one to ten has a seat at the right height.
• Fewer spills. Children at adult height lean on the table to climb up, and that is what tips the cider. At child height they don't need to.

The Friendsgiving weekends of 2026

Thanksgiving is Thursday, November 26 this year, so most Friendsgivings fall on the two weekends before it, with a few on the Saturday after.

How many kids per table?

Count the children who will actually sit, roughly ages two to ten, then plan four to six per table. Two small tables beat one long one, because children at a long table shout to the far end. Add two spare chairs: at a Friendsgiving someone always brings a neighbor's child or a visiting cousin.

A real example: four families with eleven children between them. That's five at the Daisy Table, four at a Modern White Kids Table, a toddler table for the two-year-olds near their parents, and the Isabella rattan high chair for the baby. For a bigger crowd, our big-family Thanksgiving seating plan does the same math table by table, and it works just as well for friends.

Apartment, finished basement or backyard patio

Friendsgiving is often hosted by the friend with the space, not the biggest dining room. Kids' furniture has a small footprint, and we set it up wherever the party is:

• Apartments. Tell us about elevators, stairs and any building rules when you book. If your building needs a certificate of insurance or a freight-elevator time, mention it on the quote form so it's arranged before the day.
• Finished basements and playrooms. A favorite at Friendsgiving: the children eat and play in one room while the grown-ups stay upstairs. Measure the stairway turn and we'll bring pieces that fit.
• Living rooms. Push the coffee table aside and a 36-inch Daisy Table with five chairs fits in the space it leaves.
• Backyard patios. Mid-November in NJ and NY can still be mild at lunchtime. Our chairs work on a patio or deck; keep a rain or cold-weather plan to move the kids' table inside.

The pieces we rent for Friendsgiving

Mix and match: every table works with every chair, and most pieces come in other colors on request.

• Tables: the hand-painted Daisy Table (seats five), the Modern White Kids Table on thin hairpin legs, the long Mini Scalloped Oval Table for a bigger group, and the natural-wood Farm Mini Table for a harvest look.
• Chairs: clear Ghost Chairs, white Classic Chairs, natural wood Cross Back Chairs, the pink Bow Metal Chair, the Sophia Chair in red, sage, light pink or white, and our rattan Bow, Round and Loop Chairs.
• For the littlest guests: toddler tables and chairs for ages 1 to 3, and the Isabella rattan high chair.
• For the pies: a kids' dessert cart to roll out after dinner.

Delivery, setup and pickup

We deliver and set up the kids' tables and chairs before your guests arrive, so you can set the table the way you like, and we come back afterwards to pick everything up. Nothing to fold, carry or store. If you're hosting Thanksgiving at the same address as well, see our Thanksgiving kids' table rental: we deliver before Thanksgiving and pick up after the holiday weekend, so a Friday or Saturday Friendsgiving can use the same table.

We deliver across New Jersey and New York, from Ocean, Middlesex and Union counties to Long Island. Planning ahead for the next holiday too? Our Hanukkah kids' party rentals start the first week of December.
