These things go by many names, a kitchen helper, learning tower, kid's step stool, adjustable kid's step stool, you name it. I've already made one of these for my daughter, but a friend asked to make him one for his son so I documented the process. I started off designing the shape in Adobe Illustrator then took that image over to Easel, the CNC software for the Inventables X-Carve to cut out a template using 1/2 MDF.
After the template was made, I trace it on a 3/4" sheet of plywood, used my circular saw and jigsaw to rough cut it. Then, using a flush trim bit on my router, I was able to make the side piece identical to the template. From there, a few pocket screws and glues held this learning tower together.
Children love this - they're able to get right up to the counter and feel like they are included. If you're handy in the shop and have a child, this is the perfect project for you!
