How To Make a Toddler Learning Tower That Grows With Them

Do the kids in your life always want to help around the house, but don’t have a safe way to get involved? My niece had the exact same problem before I built her this custom learning tower. Sloane's custom DIY toddler step stool features adjustable seat and step platforms to grow with her and a swinging safety arm for maximum versatility. So come on into the shop and let's get building!

What is a learning tower/toddler step stool?

A learning tower is a fully enclosed platform, designed to get kids up to counter height so they can learn and engage independently alongside adults, without the risk of falling.

About My Grandfather’s Axe:

My Grandfather’s Axe (MGA for short) follows a beginner woodworker’s journey learning the craft from her late grandfather’s tools. It’s about inheriting his carpentry knowledge by building with his very tools, all while adding her own unique mark. This channel is built on authenticity, highlighting the real mistakes and frustrations of the learning process instead of hiding them. From home renovations, to carpentry, to fine woodworking, join the genuine (often comical) journey of a beginner learning the trade!
