The Original Toddler Tower – Now with Chalkboard Creativity

We created the FunPod to solve a problem: how to safely involve toddlers in the kitchen without using unsafe stools or chairs. Designed by a parent for real family life, it’s the original enclosed learning tower, trusted by families for over 20 years.

This version adds an extra feature: chalkboard side panels. Children can draw, doodle, or write while helping out at counter height. Parents can use the sides too — for shopping lists, messages, or recipes.

Like every FunPod, it’s height adjustable, fully enclosed, and made from FSC-certified wood. Ideal for ages 10 months and up, it’s the safest way to bring your child into daily learning — from cooking and baking to early writing and creativity.

If it doesn’t say FunPod, it’s not the original. And it’s not the safest.

Watch Tower

Our grandson (13 months) loved this as soon as he went in it and realised he could watch his Papa make coffee! He loves to be where the action is, so this tower is fantastic. It's very sturdy, so no topple worries, yet easy to move around the kitchen to where it is needed. At the moment, he is too young for the chalk boards, but I know this will be a useful feature in a few months time. A very good product - highly recommended!

The helper is well made in terms of quality. It is not open on any side so your child won't fall out. Easy assembly and information about the shipment is updated on time. Good communication with the seller.

Game changer

This is the second Little Helper we have purchased. Our eldest is 3.5 & uses it every day to help mummy with cooking. Now the 2.5 year old can help too without being tucked under my arm. They’re safe & makes my life so much easier. I did look at other brands & designs before buying the second one as they are the more expensive on the market, however they are by far the best designed & most sturdy out of the lot. The fact that the sides are solid makes the world of difference. A friend of mine had a cheap version with railings & her little one fell through the gaps. The Little Helper wins hands down. The girls love the chalkboard on the side & our original one also has the magnetic chalkboard so they love them as much as I do! Money very very well spent & can’t recommend highly enough

Very Good Quality

It is very good quality and we get great use with it already. Would recommend it to anybody with very small children. Ordering was easy and delivery worked out well in the end. The delivery company couldn’t provide an accurate delivery date.
