The "Benjamin" stool from IKEA is a bargain at 19.99.
It's lightweight enough for small children to move around, tip 
resistant, stackable, and durable.  I have used them in a number of 
exhibitions and they still look presentable after more than a year on 
the floor.  California Academy of Sciences also uses them in their 
Discovery Room area.

I just checked and saw there is no IKEA in Hawaii and unfortunately 
IKEA won't let you order online for shipment to Hawaii. Perhaps a 
colleague in the continental US could purchase on your behalf and 
ship them to the Bishop.
