They are super easy to make mama. My dh made some for dd. I can take a pic for you and measure them tonight or tomorrow cause i gotta go out right now.

Okay here are the measurements of the playstands dh made.
42 inches high X 43 inches wide
The shelf is 8" up from the floor so it has a low center of gravity and won't tip as easily and makes a little bench for dd to sit on.
The end boards are 3 1/2 inches wide at the top and about 9" wide at the floor.
If we made them again I would put in a dowel at the top like alison did instead of the 1x2 board
It is held together with screws and dh just sanded the edges so they wouldn't be sharp.
Also we left the stands unfinished because i prefer natural wood and wanted to be able to sand them if my little picasso coloured on them.
Janice- If you just wanted the edges so they wouldn't be sharp sanding works well but if you want them to look fancy you could use the router.
Here is a pic
