Foldable Helper Tower®

A Helper Tower® is a hybrid stool and ladder that offers a stable surface on which toddlers can safely reach kitchen counters. Featuring a secure railing around the waist area, toddler towers help prevent falls.

Most importantly, a Helper Tower® bring toddlers and young children up to where the action is happening in the kitchen. That way, instead of grabbing your legs or standing on their tippy-toes, they can actually participate and build skills while stirring, chopping, pouring, washing dishes, and more! Toddler towers are also ideal for use in the bathroom and other areas around the house.

A Helper Tower® is ideal for young children from about 18 months through 6 years of age. To safely use a Helper Tower, your little one should be able to stand up independently. Some children may be ready younger than 18 months, while others may be ready after they are 18 months old.

Your child may be ready to stop using a toddler tower when they can easily reach the counters on their own or they outgrow their Helper Tower. Some products like our Foldable Helper Tower have a moveable platform, making it easy to adjust the height as your child grows. Plus, adults can use our Foldable Helper Tower® as a step stool to reach items in hard-to-reach places (weight limit 175 pounds).

Helper Towers are worth it for many families because they help young children become more independent. Instead of fussing while you make a meal, your toddler can chop, stir, wash dishes, and more! You can also use a Helper Tower to help your child reach the sink in the bathroom or get a book down from a high shelf.

Helper Towers must meet safety standards like U.S. CPSC. Piccalio’s Helper Towers conform to ASTM F963 and California Prop 65. Plus, they are Greenguard Gold and Intertek certified. Although helper towers are safe, parents should always supervise their children while using them. To prevent toddlers from using the Foldable Helper Tower unsupervised, parents can fold it flat and store it on our Wall Hook.

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.
