After literally hours of research online, and weeks of waiting for a desk from a store that didn't seem to care the item was out of stock (ahem ikea), I found this.  It is simply the most beautiful, functional, and well-built desk for children you can find.

Best part is that the two lift-up leaves of the desk don't slam down on children's fingers—they have a built-in slowing mechanism that prevents them from falling back down.
