Check out how Maddy has utilised our front facing Montessori bookshelf to create a beautiful inviting reading space for her little one 📚

By displaying books cover out, children can easily see and pick what's available, creating independence around reading.

Real tools. Real wood. Real focus.

Every centre needs a workbench to inspire the next generation of kiwi DIYer. Real hammers, real vice, real timber offcuts. Earmuffs, safety, supervision and kids who love to create.

We work with centres across NZ. Every piece is built to handle full-day, multi-child use — and we engrave your centre name into the timber.

Every parent of a Hot Wheels kid knows feet have felt the impact of cars being left on the floor

Made to order with your child's name. Handcrafted in Christchurch.

From $169.99.

There's a reason Montessori bookshelves face the covers outward.

When a toddler can see the cover, three things happen.

They choose for themselves.
They put the book back when they're done. And they re-read favourites a hundred times (you've been warned).

Our 4-tier bookshelf handcrafted by Josh in Selwyn, was designed around exactly this.
Low enough to reach. Strong enough to lean on. Built from solid NZ pine to last past the toddler years.

From $179.
