Is finding kids’ step stools that are sturdy but will also look nice around your house too much to ask? As a new mom, a lot of the stools I saw for sale were cheap, but the plastic primary colors look was cramping my style.
I am no longer a new mom, and we’ve been through quite a few step stools- with some really good ones that have lasted over the years!
Kids’ Step Stools
“Me help too!” I am well versed in the independent child. Either you give your kid the step stool so they can safely help you, or they climb up on the counter and “help” that way, right?
I have 12 of the cutest kids’ step stools rounded up for you here! This includes affordable little stools for small spaces, to the more high end that even adults may want to keep out and around for themselves.
12 of the Cutest Kids’ Step Stools On the Internet
We leave our kids’ step stools out in our kitchen like a piece of furniture. It’s nice that this one is aesthetically pleasing, as well as strong and reliable- even for me.
Some are these are teak or metal, making them great in a bathroom – others for the main areas of the house – but all 12 of these step stools below will look great in your home!
Each Kids’ Stool Broken Down With A Description and a Photo
1. Jenny Lind White Step Stool: Favorite Kids’ Wooden Step Stool
Chic with spindle legs to match the classic frame, this kids’ stool would look great in a classic bathroom, or even next to their bookshelf to reach all their favorites. I love the details on this stool!
(Read about our son’s Jenny Lind Bed in his room, and 9 Jenny Lind style beds we considered!)
2. Teak Step Stool: Favorite, favorite splurge!!!
Is this a kids step stool? I’m not certain, but it is well used by ours!
This is our kitchen step stool. The fact that this step stool is made of teak (teak is water-resistant!) is probably why it has lasted so long for us in perfect condition! We are going on 3 years with our lightweight step stool, used by 4 children daily. My husband and I also use this stool also to reach the tallest upper cabinets in the kitchen.
I have it on furniture felt pieces so it doesn’t scratch the floor, and it glides around smoothly. I ended up loving it so much we bought another for the kids’ bathroom upstairs!
3. Double Wooden Step Stool: Favorite mixed material
This stool would also look great out and about in your home or could coordinate in a cute bathroom. The powder coated white frame won’t rust.
4. Black Step Stool: Favorite Small Shop Kids’ Stool
Have you considered kids’ step stools on Etsy yet? This shop has over a thousand positive reviews, and you can feel good about supporting a small shop too. This modern and sleek step stool is modern and cool! (Not only that- but they make a toddler step stool, or a leaning stool too!)
5. Wooden Ikea Stool From Amazon: Favorite save!! Also a favorite for creative ideas
This kids’ step stool (available off Amazon!) is called a utility stool because it can be used by adults too. It comes in a few colors, but if you like to DIY you could paint this wooden stool any fun color!
April (from @heartsdesiresathome) painted and used riflepaperco wrapping paper and Mod Podge to make these stools more unique. How fun is that?
6. Puzzle Step Stool off Amazon: Favorite gift idea!
Two of my children have this step stool with their own name on it- it was a fun personalized gift from their grandma! They love the puzzle – especially as toddlers who wanted to put their letters in and out, in and out. (Don’t like the pastel? They come in primary colors too).
7. Most Beautiful Step Stool: Most beautiful
I am a huge fan of Maisonette and their high quality crafted toys. This one has a little storage in the top.
8. Storage Step Stool: Favorite basic
This round up is starting to make me feel like either a)I’ve been a mother for hundreds of years or b) I’ve owned just about every step stool ever made. This one used to come in red, and my mom bought it for me when we had our first child. In fact, that boy is now 12! It is very well made, and I love the storage aspect at the top!
9.Super Strong Pink Kids’ Stool – Comes In Multiple Colors: Favorite color!
Don’t be fooled by this pink step stool (found off Amazon!) It is sturdy- holding up to 260lbs, and comes in a variety of colors.
10. Pink or Green Activity Stools: Favorite price!
I can envision these stools side by side in a shared girls’ bathroom at double sinks. Or put one in each bathroom! They also come in a fun shade of green. Don’t forget your 20% off coupon!
11. Giraffe Step Stool / Seat: So unique!
Want to make your kids’ eyes light up? Walk in with this giant giraffe stool for them. How adorable is this??? It has good reviews too.
12. Metal Kids’ Stools Stools For Activities: Another great basic
Metal, lightweight, and in a nice off-white, these simple stools are handy for teeth brushing and the like. I love that it comes as a set, so you can use them in multiple rooms.
