TurniTable: The play table with a twist!

 

With two children of their own, Bella Williams and her husband Nick knew all too well the pain of treading on Lego bricks in their bare feet or the fear of falling over a railway layout strategically placed in the middle of the room.  With this in mind, they were eager to buy a play table on which their children could build their train and Lego sets, even race their cars upon. They soon found that a traditional play table would take up too much space in their living area, and with nothing available to suit their needs, they decided to design their very own play table.

The design, right back to the original sketching, material and production process took nearly two years.  Right from the conceptual stage, the project was awarded an Innovation and Sustainability Grant through Brighton University, and after much thought and deliberation on how best to produce a play table, TurniTable™ was born.

The play table with a twist. 

TurniTable™ offers a multi functional, space saving solution: a child’s table or coffee table which effortlessly transforms into a big, double sized magnetic play table and back again anytime the extra floor space is needed.  TurniTable™ comes with two children’s benches with handy storage for toys, and is crafted in solid wood and natural materials, finished in white with the option of ‘super fresh’, blue or orange bench backs.  The table and benches all sit on lockable castors making the furniture easy to position or to move from room to room. There is a simple safety lock which allows you to fix the table in position to protect little fingers.

All play tables deserve a play mat! TurniTable™ goes one step further from the traditional, static play mat with the option to buy fabulous accessory packs, MagniFun™ – Fun, individual, brightly coloured magnets, designed in collaboration with local illustrator, Noriko Sato.  MagniFun™ is currently available in farm, fairytale and race track themes.  With around 30 magnets per set, children can create their own changeable play scenes, and let their imagination sparkle.

There are so many possibilities for little ones to enjoy hours of fun and when they are finished, in seconds the table can be turned back to a coffee table for some well deserved adult time….easy!

TurniTable™ is available from The Secret Play Company Ltd and cost £325 including FREE delivery and comes fully assembled. MagniFun™ packs, £12 or £30 for all 3.
