Disclosure: I received a Little Partners 3-in-1 Growing Step Stool to facilitate my review. I was not required to write a positive review. My opinions are honest and my own.
My granddaughter and I have been in love with the Little Partners Learning Tower I reviewed in November, so I was very happy to be asked to do a review of the new Little Partners 3-in-1 Growing Step Stool. I really appreciated the sturdy and safe construction of the original Learning Tower. Because it’s designed to hold up to 500 pounds, though, it is large and not super easy to move around. It’s perfect for activities where a child stands at the counter to help with a project like baking or works at his or her own activity close to an adult (very useful during those “sticky” toddler stages where the toddler likes to be near someone at all times).
The new 3-in-1 step stool has the same safe, sturdy construction but is also easily movable.
About the 3-in-1 Growing Step Stool by Little Partners
- The 3-in-1 Growing Step Stool is a super-safe stool manufactured by Little Partners.
- It’s made from durable birch wood with poplar core LVL Construction. (Like the Learning Tower, it has a very nice finish and feel. The beauty of it fits well with the Montessori philosophy of having the child’s environment as attractive as possible.)
- There’s a 3-position adjustable height.
- The tongue in groove assembly gives the step stool lots of strength and stability.
- It supports both children and adults up to 250 lbs.
- It works perfectly in the kitchen, bathroom, or nursery.
- The 3-in-1 Growing Step Stool is available in white, grey, or espresso.

My Experience with the 3-in-1 Growing Step Stool
Little Partners 3-in-1 Growing Step Stool Storage
The 3-in-1 Growing Step Stool was easily assembled. It was also easily moved to where I wanted it. I decided to store mine in the bathroom right off my kitchen. That way, Zoey can use it in the bathroom, and my husband and I can use it as a step stool in the kitchen. Except for the lowest height using the double board, the steps aren’t very deep for an adult, but they still work. And I love that it’s so sturdy. I can feel safe and stable reaching the highest cabinets in my kitchen.

Using the Sink Independently at 17 Months with the Little Partners Footstool
Another day, I tried leaving the step stool next to the cold-water faucet so that Zoey could be completely independent in washing her hands. With the step stool in this position, she can turn on the cold-water faucet (but not the hot-water faucet) and wash her hands safely and independently.
Zoey was so proud … as you can see in the photo! 🙂
The 3-in-1 Growing Step Stool is another product I highly recommend because of its safety and high-quality construction.

This looks perfect! We’ve struggled to find a “right-height” stool for the bathroom.
I would use this when my little baby gets to be around 1 year and is showing signs that she needs more independence.
Getting ready for when my baby is a toddler.
I love the idea that the toddlers can wash their hands by themselves
This would be great for my daughter.
I would love this for my daughter for safety! My daughter was born a micro preemie at 2 lbs. she is now 3 1/2 yrs old 17 pounds and height of a 1 year old. But very independent.
There are so many things she could participate in if she had a stool to get her higher instead of being on the counter. This would be perfect for my little princess!!
I would love to have something a little more stable and heavy to take the place of my daughter’s current step stool and this looks great!
I would love to use this with my daughter. She is only 6 months old now, but is growing so fast I almost can’t believe it. I waited a long time to have a baby, I will be 41 next week, and now that she is here I cannot wait to share the world with her. 🙂
I love the art easel additions. What a great way to get multiple uses out of this product!
I would love to win this for my 16 month old daughter so we can continue to incorporate more Montessori concepts into the home.
I would love to win this for my daughter. She loves to be independent, to cook with us, and to help out around the house. The stool would be the perfect thing to help her do it herself!
I have four boys who love to help in the kitchen. I need a safer stool option for them than the one we are currently using. Thanks for the chance to win!
I have the learning tower in the Kitchen. This stool would be perfect for our bathroom. Right now we are using a piano. This looks much safer!
Wow, I didn’t know it supports both Children & Adults up to 250 lbs. I think that’s me plus both my boys combined!
This would make cooking with my kids a lot easier.
I’d love to win this because one can never have enough step stools in the house, can one? 🙂
This would be great for my toddler, who loves to wash his hands and brush his teeth, but has trouble reaching. It would also be helpful for my preschooler, who likes to help in the kitchen!
Hey,
I would like to join. Maybe I’m lucky.
Greeting, Lamasus
I would love to have this in my home daycare so I can start allowing the children to help more in cooking and hygiene.
This would be great for my daughter to help me cook in the kitchen. She loves helping me make dinner and her snacks. Thanks for the chance to win
