Can furniture teach kids stuff? Yup.

Toddlers learn best when they touch things, smell things, taste things, and see things. Look for ways to provide hands-on, firsthand experiences to encourage independence and self-directed learning.

Open-ended living for independent learning.

Stirring, mixing, kneading dough, cutting, slicing, pouring, spooning, brushing teeth and washing dishes are all great activities your little one can enjoy with the help of a toddler tower.

  • Easily converts to a toddler table and chair
  • Sturdy and easy to clean
  • For the modern home

Frequently Asked Questions

If we didn't answer your question, let's chat or contact us.

Playing should be fun. But also safe. Piccalio products all have a children’s product certificate. They’re non-toxic, FSC certified wood, and compliant with ASTM, Prop65, and the FDA too. We never use harmful chemicals or substances in the making or manufacturing of our products.

You can find assembly instructions for all products here.

Use a damp, clean cloth to wipe the surfaces. Slight maintenance may be required over time.

Don’t leave or store your Piccalio products outside. They are protected by a lacquer coating but are made of wood and are therefore susceptible to damage caused by exposure to rain and wet conditions.

We recommend keeping our wood products in dry, non-humid environments, and kept away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances that produce heat.

While both are equally sturdy and safe, there are some differences between these two towers. The Convertible Helper Tower has the option to convert into a table and chair, while the Foldable Helper Tower does not have this feature. The Foldable Helper Tower can fold for easy storage. Another feature of the Foldable Helper Tower is an adjustable standing platform (3 height options) adjusting as your child grows, while the Convertible Helper Tower only has an adjustable step (3 height options) which is used as a seat when the tower converts into a table.

The Safety Net is a Helper Tower accessory for the first months of use. It can create a protective barrier while your little one is getting familiar with the Helper Tower and gaining confidence.

Please note, if your child is not firmly stable yet, or cannot stand unaided we suggest not using the Helper Tower until the child is fully stable and can stand unsupported.

The Helper Tower is made from FSC Certified (sustainably harvested) Birch plywood and solid Pine. We use a 0-VOC water-based finish that is formaldehyde and lead free.

    Perfect!

    VERY easy assembly and looks really nice in any kitchen space. My 13 month old is able to climb in and out all by himself safely. And the convertible table is just so cute and perfect for snacks and crafts. Sturdy and really easy to clean. Definitely one of my favorite baby items I’ve ever purchased!

    Fantastic gift for our grandkids

    This is the second Convertible Helper Tower I’ve purchased. It’s a great gift for both kids & parents. My grandson loves climbing into his tower to be up high. His mom can be hands free to cook with a helper by her side. The table conversion is easy & gives little ones a play surface or a place to eat. Overall a wonderful product.

    Great product!

    Highly recommend- sturdy when it unfolds and stores small and easily, which is great for a smaller space. Our toddler loves being at counter height when we cook!

    Happy little guy!

    My baby loves to be in the mix. It keeps him involved with what’s going on but also safe.
