Cause my kids aren't old enough I'll tell you what I did.
When I was young and needing help I worked at the dining table.
When I was older and able to complete the work on my own (maybe from late primary school?), I worked at a desk in my room where it was quieter. For what is worth, I had a desk in my room from quite a young age (early on in school) and I liked sitting there doing 'work' (drawing pictures, writing stories) whenever I could!
EDIT - DD1 has a little table in her room that she likes to use for 'drawing' or stickers. Sometimes with us and sometimes without.
I think it's good for them to have diffferent spaces depending on what they are doing. I don't like the idea of computers in bedrooms so will tackle that once they are older but I also know that when I was studying/reading, you need to have a quiet isolated place without distraction, so I think a desk in their room is a great idea, along with a dining table that is central as well and then maybe a desk in a central space with a computer (Better get DH chippy to start building our mansion with all these spaces )
