Pikler Triangle Climbing Frames

It’s a strong, stable, lightweight and beautiful wooden play product that also looks magnificent in the home.

The Pikler brings us back to the fundamentals of childhood and it allows our children the opportunity to play, create and discover the world around them, at a pace that is unique and makes sense to them as an individual. Climbing frames offer sensory and motor development opportunities not found with traditional ‘toys’ and they allow your child to reach new heights and milestones in their own time and in a safe environment.

A 9 month old left to his own imagination, will use a Pikler Frame in a very different way to a 3 yr old.

4 Months: At 4 months of age, the Pikler can be used as a baby gym by simply hanging toys and objects from the rungs of the frame. (please ensure you follow safety guidelines when attaching Play gym objects)

9 Months: At 9 months of age, your little ones are often still finding their feet, so they will use the Pikler to pull-up and lean on. You may find your little one ‘gliding’ in and around the base of the triangle.  As your child’s skill set and imagination grows, so too does the way in which they will engage with their Pikler.

2 Years: At 2 years of age, you may find your little one climbing half way up and half way down again, sliding between the bars, or simply using the frame as a fun new play space or reading nook.

3 Years: By about age 3, (earlier or later depending on where the individual child has prioritised their gross development) you will find your child starting to experiment with climbing over the Pikler.

Again, without adult intervention or encouragement, your child will only go as far as they are comfortable and confident, ensuring their chances of a tumble are slim.  Whilst it is important not to intervene, it is just as important to support your toddlers successes as well as their failures.

Crafted with robust construction, each Pikler triangle meets stringent safety standards, promising not just fun but secure adventures for your young explorers. The design intricacies go beyond aesthetics; they instil confidence in parents, knowing their children are safe. Plus, they're easy to assemble and don't require much upkeep. With our Pikler triangle, you're not just getting a play tool but investing in peace of mind.

Pikler climbing frames have become an Australian favourite due to their versatility, enjoyment for children and the strong science behind their design. Our climbing triangles are inspired by Pikler’s theory of child development. This theory states that children should move freely and develop at their own pace and explains that parents shouldn't be putting their children into positions they wouldn’t be able to handle themselves. The Pikler triangle in our range allows kids to learn how to move their bodies and climb independently to boost their self-independence and fine motor skills. 

The size of our climbing triangles are relatively compact making them great for indoor use, so you can easily watch as your children explore the steps and hit development milestones when they are mentally and physically ready. My Happy Helpers are committed to providing Australian families with affordable and safe toys.

Are Pikler Triangles Safe?

The Pikler triangle is designed to encourage and promote independent play. This is a very different concept to unsupervised play and we do not recommend that your child use a Climbing Frame unsupervised. Independent free play means letting your little ones explore and discover their own space, in their own time and in their own way. Unsupervised play is simply not being there and not watching. Unsupervised play with children poses a danger no matter the activity or toy. With adult supervision, it offers enormous benefits to a child of any age.

Why buy a Pikler Climber?

Babies and toddlers have a habit of climbing on everything, regardless of its safety or stability. Introducing a Baby Pikler Climbing Frame at an early age will provide a safe and structured environment for this natural inclination and contrary to popular belief, not encourage your toddler to ‘become a climber’. It will however allow your little ones a safe space to develop and practise their gross motor skills, balance, coordination, grip strength, and creativity. Whether you're looking for a Montessori Pikler triangle or aiming to buy Pikler triangle designs for varied ages, understand that each one is geared towards holistic child development.
