FROM WHAT AGE IS THE LEARNING TOWER RECOMMENDED?

The recommended age for using our Montessori learning tower depends on the child’s age and abilities. When introducing new activities, it is important to consider not only the child’s age but also their individual capabilities. Children of the same age can have varying abilities. Based on our observations, here are our recommendations.
6-18 months: dining table, Montessori mirror
1-3 years and older: slide, shape sorter
1-5 years and older: teacher's tower, magnetic cards
2-5 years and older: high chair, blackboard, field hockey table, activity table.

WHAT MATERIALS IS THE TOWER MADE OF?

We primarily use birch plywood for the tower. Some parts are made of hardwood. The paints and lacquers are non-toxic and water-based.

IS THIS TOWER SAFE?

We have prioritized safety throughout the development of this product, understanding its paramount importance. We regularly test and scrutinize every aspect of the tower and receive continuous feedback from users. Since its launch in 2017, we have not encountered any significant incidents. However, as the learning tower is a relatively new tool on the market, there is still much to learn about it.
Please pay attention to the following aspects (not limited to them):
Never leave the child unattended.
Prevent the child from climbing on the product.
Be aware of the risk of tipping over if the child pushes their feet against a table or any other structure.
Do not allow the child to jump inside the tower or any of its components.
Do not allow the child to use the connecting bars as monkey bars (to hang or swing)
Always supervise the child closely (within arm’s reach) while they are inside the tower.
Set the foot platform height correctly, ensuring the child’s centre of weight (belly button) remains below the top edges of the tower.
Pay attention to any sudden movements by the child while inside the tower.
Keep the tower and child at a safe distance from any heat sources, electrical devices, cutting tools, and open windows.
Never leave the room while the child is in the tower.

CAN I LEAVE MY CHILD ALONE TO PLAY WITH OR IN THE TOWER?

No. This device is not intended to keep your child occupied while you take a break. Instead, it is designed to encourage interaction and connection between parent and child, providing numerous opportunities for that.

WHY DOES THE PRODUCT COME IN TWO SIZES? WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES?

After creating the first version of the tower (which is the current size M), we received requests from families, asking if the tower could accommodate two children simultaneously. While technically possible, we realized that it would compromise the comfort and safety of the children.
