FunPod Original Toddler Tower | The Safest Learning Tower | Natural Finish
The Original Toddler Tower – Designed by a Parent, Trusted by Thousands
When our founder’s daughter wanted to help in the kitchen at just 10 months old, there was nothing safe on the market. A chair or stool wasn’t secure — and perching her on the worktop was dangerous. So she created something better: the FunPod.
We were the first to bring a learning tower to Europe, and two decades later, the FunPod remains the safest and most original design available. Unlike open-frame towers, the FunPod has solid enclosed sides that prevent climbing, slipping, or falling — giving your child the freedom to join in, safely.
Designed for use from walking age or standing unaided, the FunPod is height adjustable, grows with your child, and fits neatly under your kitchen worktop. It supports real-world learning, bonding and independence — every day.
If it doesn't say FunPod, it’s not the original. And it's not the safest.
