What do your LO's stand on?

I'm going to make some cakes with Maisie in a minute .

She stands on a chair to help, but it's not ideal. What do your LO's stand on to reach the worktop during 'cooking' activities?

Logan sometimes uses a chair but after nearly falling backwards no it we got a wee step thing...not the ones you get from mothercare or wherever for the bathroom as I find that isn't tall enough, but we got it from a home center I think.

A chair. She is repeatedly told to stand still and hold onto the worksurface. She repeatedly ignores this and has a cracking great bruise on her chin at the moment.

We have an entire collection of wooden stools that have been bought by Nana and Nanny!

I think they actually all come from charity shops - you know that Oxfam and Cancer Research have specially made lines - well I'm 99% sure that they're mostly from there (we've got about 6 of them) Little carved 3 legged stools with an animal or bear on the top.

They're gorgeous actually and very useful (although I spend my entire time dragging them back to where they came from as Little M has become a tad handy at turning taps on, reaching over for stuff etc etc )

eta - ooh a friend of mine has a little step stool from Ikea that she's painted the bottom steps on in the most lush blue and it looks gorgeous!! (top is left wood, bottom bit is painted) Bargainous £12 or something for the stool, probably less) If I didn't have enough stools to start my own shop, I'd get one of those.

Either a chair or the mini-stepladder.

An Ikea stepstool!

Lucy has a little carved wooden stool with a pig on it that my Nan bought her for Xmas last year. Before that she'd stand on her little red plastic stool from the £ Shop the wooden one is much nicer, it was from TK Maxx.

C just stands on a kitchen chair.

Fab folding stools from Lakeland - they look horrid but are just the right height, very very stable and can fold up to put away.

We have an Ikea one but it's not stable enough

That's the one Lazymummy

It's gorgeous painted
