Default How much weight can a 3/4" of MDF support?

paint it. Tell the moms to pick out a table cover, preferably
something like a giant doilie, with lots of lace and pastel covers.

If it was me, I'd consider two (or three) milk crates and a large pillow
case.



And ply/MDF on top the crates, right?
I second this option, but with a drape cloth (a pastel lace doily
sounds excellent, LOL), rather than pillow (en)casing the crates.
They can paint the "countertop", themselves.... a cloth covering
would get dirty, quickly. Drape the crates, not the ply. Use the
crate space for storage. If height is needed, such that 4 crates are
used, 2 stacked on 2, tie the crates together with wire ties.
