Would Your Family Benefit from a Learning Tower?
Learning Towers are rapidly growing in popularity but are yet to make it into household vocabulary in the UK. They go by many names, including the kitchen Learning Tower, activity tower, kitchen helper, little helper, standing stool, standing step, toddler step, Montessori learning tower… the list goes on.
You may already be sold on the virtues of a Learning Tower, but for those that would like to know a little more, read on…
Lessons from the Highchair…
Every young family own a highchair; that indispensable piece of furniture which safely brings your child up to the dinner table and allows them to feel a part of the family at mealtimes. Yet not so many family households own a learning tower. This may seem ludicrous when you consider how much time your family spend in the kitchen, and what fraction of that time actually constitutes mealtime.
Our kitchens are now the heart of the modern home; a place where we spend a great deal of time caring for our families and balancing our busy lives. The amount of time we spend in our kitchen is only growing as Britain embraces concepts such as open plan living, the kitchen-diner or the family-room.
The piece of furniture your child (and your kitchen!) needs…
Naturally, we want nothing but the best for our little ones and we endeavour to build a safe, secure, inclusive environment where they can learn and flourish. We want our toddlers and children to grow up as engaged in family life as possible, and they do too!
And where there is a will, there’s a way…
When you’re busying yourself in the kitchen, does your toddler often ask to be picked up? Maybe your child regularly positions a box or chair against the kitchen worktop in a bid to join in? This ‘phase’ is likely to last until your child is tall enough to access work surfaces by themselves.
Our Learning Towers can be used as soon as your child is able to stand (with supervision, of course). With many different designs and models, you will be able to find the perfect balance between ensuring your child’s safety whilst encouraging their independence and growth.
If you’re a modern family who spend significant time in the kitchen, it is likely you will find the Learning Tower to be every bit as indispensable as the highchair for your child’s development and inclusion. Whether its learning to bake, ‘helping’ with the cooking, or simply feeling included your child will cherish the moments you share in your kitchen.
