Children love to be part of what adults are doing. Whether it’s cooking, washing, or setting the table, little ones are happiest when they can take part rather than simply watching from the side. As parents, we also feel more at ease when our children are engaged in real activities rather than sitting in front of a screen.
But how can we safely share the kitchen counter or bathroom sink with a toddler? You’ve probably already realised that using a regular chair or stool isn’t the safest idea—especially for younger children. That’s exactly why the Montessori Learning Tower has become such a trusted solution.
This sturdy, child-safe platform allows little ones to climb up and down independently while the protective sides minimise any risk of falling.
When our own children turned one, we started searching for a learning tower for our home. We saw many models, but none of them quite fit what we wanted. That’s when we decided to design our own—an adjustable and foldable learning tower that combined safety, functionality, and style.
Let’s start from the beginning.
What Is a Montessori Learning Tower?
A Montessori Learning Tower is a specially designed piece of children’s furniture that helps little ones reach the height of adults safely. It can be used in the kitchen, bathroom, or anywhere your child needs a little boost.
At its core, it’s a stable step stool with safety rails. But it’s much more than that—it’s a practical tool that helps children take part in everyday family life while supporting their independence and learning through real experience.
Benefits of a Montessori Learning Tower
A learning tower supports your child’s growth and development in many ways:
-
Independence and confidence: Children feel proud to help and accomplish tasks on their own, building strong self-esteem.
-
Motor skills: Climbing, balancing, and reaching improve coordination and control.
-
Cognitive development: Seeing and participating from an adult’s perspective gives them new knowledge about the world.
-
Social and emotional skills: Shared activities with parents and siblings strengthen bonds and teamwork.
-
Responsibility: Following Montessori principles, children learn to make choices and take initiative.
-
Curiosity and creativity: The tower isn’t just for kitchen use—it often becomes a stage for imaginative play and discovery.
From What Age Can It Be Used?
As soon as your child can stand steadily and start climbing independently. Every child develops differently, so there isn’t a strict age; some start around 12 months, others a little later.
Where Can You Use It?
-
In the kitchen: for mixing ingredients, setting the table, or helping with simple recipes.
-
In the bathroom: for brushing teeth and washing hands without needing help.
-
In the living room: for tidying up toys or joining in creative play.
