Little Tikes Picnic Tables for Backyard Play

As Amazon Associates, we earn from qualifying purchases. This means we may receive a small commission at no extra cost to you if you click through and make a purchase.

Little Tikes has made sturdy plastic toys and kids’ furniture for decades, and its outdoor picnic tables are a classic backyard gift. A kid-sized picnic table gives children their own spot for snacks, crafts and playdates, and most Little Tikes tables fold up to store in a garage or closet when not in use. For a gift-giver, the main questions are how old the child is, how many kids will sit at it and how much yard space you have.

The five Little Tikes outdoor picnic table options below differ mainly in size and extras: three are Jr. tables for toddlers from 18 months to 5 years, one is a larger Easy Store table seating six with an umbrella, and one is the Fold ‘n Store table sized for six to eight children.

Little Tikes Cloud Collection Easy Store

Best for: Toddlers in modern playrooms

Pros

  • Clean white finish
  • Seats up to 4
  • Folds, no tools

Cons

  • No umbrella
  • 50 lb per bench limit

The Little Tikes Cloud Collection Easy Store Jr. Play Table is a white version of the brand’s toddler picnic table, made for children from 18 months to 5 years. It seats up to four kids, two per bench, and each bench holds up to 50 pounds. It is plastic throughout and weighs 15 pounds.

No tools are needed to set it up. The table “unlocks” and folds, which means you release a latch and the table closes down to a slimmer shape for carrying or storing. The listing gives its size as 28.88 inches wide and 17.88 inches tall. It works indoors in a playroom or outdoors in the backyard, and the description highlights snacks, creative play and birthday parties. The listing does not mention an umbrella or an umbrella hole.

This suits a parent or gift-giver who wants a toddler table that blends in with a modern home, especially if it will spend a lot of time indoors. For shade outdoors, look at the Jr. Picnic Table with Umbrella instead.

Best for: Simple toddler gift in blue and green

Pros

  • Folds flat for storage
  • Made in USA

Little Tikes Easy Store Jr. Picnic

Pros

  • Umbrella with UV protection per description
  • Seats up to 4
  • Folds, no tools

Cons

  • Listing also says accessories not included
Little Tikes Easy Store Picnic Table
Little Tikes Easy Store Picnic Table

Best for: Older kids and bigger playdates

Pros

  • Seats up to 6
  • Umbrella included
  • Cup holders and crayon tray

Cons

  • Larger footprint
  • 90-day warranty

The Little Tikes Easy Store Picnic Table with Umbrella is the larger Easy Store model at 42 inches long, 38 inches wide and 19.75 inches high. It seats up to six kids, and each bench is rated for up to 200 pounds, so it can handle older children or even a parent sitting down to join in.

It includes two cup holders in the middle of the table, a multi-purpose tray for condiments or crayons, and a Little Tikes market umbrella that fits a center hole. Like the Jr. tables, it unlocks and folds for storage, and no tools are needed to set it up or take it down, although the listing also says “assembly required”, which usually means a few parts snap together the first time. The warranty covers manufacturer defects for 90 days.

This is a strong pick for families with more than one child, or for kids who will outgrow a toddler table soon. It needs more yard or patio space than the Jr. tables.

Little Tikes Easy Store Jr. Picnic Table with Umbrella for Sunny Yards

The Little Tikes Easy Store Jr. Picnic Table with Umbrella is a blue and green toddler table measuring 27.25 by 27 by 18.25 inches. It seats up to four children aged 18 months to 5 years, with a 50-pound weight limit, and folds for storage without tools.

The description says it comes with a stylish umbrella that provides UV protection for shade during playtime, and that the umbrella can be removed to bring indoors or store. However, the feature list and components both say “accessories not included”, so the listing contradicts itself. Check the product photos or ask the seller before counting on the umbrella. The table wipes clean easily and carries a 90-day warranty.

This suits toddlers who play outside in the sun, as long as the umbrella is confirmed in the box. Without it, the Amazon Exclusive Jr. Play Table below is similar.

Little Tikes Fold ‘n Store Picnic

Best for: Big families and group parties

Pros

  • Seats 6 to 8 children
  • Market umbrella included
  • Wood-grain look, made in USA

Cons

  • Heaviest at 34.5 pounds
  • Age range not listed

The Little Tikes Fold ‘n Store Picnic Table with Market Umbrella is the largest here, sized to seat six to eight children. It has a brown wood-grain look designed to blend in with other outdoor furniture, and each bench holds up to 200 pounds. A market umbrella is included and fits in the center hole.

You assemble it once, then fold, move or store it. The compact folded design can even hang on a wall. The listing gives dimensions of 62 by 62 by 64 inches, which likely includes the umbrella’s height, and a weight of 34.5 pounds. It says it is made in the USA. The spec table lists the frame material as wood, but the listing describes a wood-grain look rather than real wood, so the material is not fully clear. The age range is not listed.

This fits families with several kids, frequent backyard parties, or a daycare setting. If your patio is already set up for adults, it pairs well with an outdoor patio furniture set so everyone has a seat.

Little Tikes Easy Store Jr. Play Table for a Simple Toddler Gift

The Little Tikes Easy Store Jr. Play Table is an Amazon Exclusive toddler table in blue and green, for ages 18 months to 5 years. It measures about 27 by 27.2 by 18.25 inches and weighs just 9 pounds, the lightest here. It seats four and works as a picnic, craft, snack or game table.

It snaps together without tools and folds flat to store in a garage, closet or shed. There is a center hole for an umbrella, but the umbrella is not included. One feature line mentions a removable umbrella, which conflicts with this, so plan to buy one separately if you want shade. The listing says it is made in the USA, and it wipes clean with a damp cloth.

This suits a first birthday or second birthday gift where you want a simple, lightweight table. Pair it with another pretend-play gift such as a Little Tikes toy refrigerator for a playroom set.

How to Choose the Right Little Tikes Picnic Table

Match the table to age. The three Jr. tables are listed for 18 months to 5 years. The Easy Store Picnic Table and the Fold ‘n Store suit older kids thanks to their 200-pound bench ratings.

Count the seats. Jr. tables seat four, the Easy Store seats six, and the Fold ‘n Store seats six to eight.

Think about shade. The Easy Store Picnic Table and Fold ‘n Store include umbrellas. The Jr. Picnic Table’s umbrella is listed inconsistently, and the Amazon Exclusive Jr. has a hole but no umbrella.

Plan for storage. All five fold for storage. The Jr. tables are the lightest to carry, while the Fold ‘n Store can hang on a wall.
