Who:Henlee
What:The Henlee Pavilion Play Tent
Why:
This tent caused a huge stir on the JDA judging days. The beautiful wide stripes, high quality cotton canvas and jaunty pom pom on top makes this tent a serious cut above and our judges loved the generous size that means there’s plenty of room for siblings of friends to play alongside each other. The JDA panel was also impressed by the brand’s commitment to using high quality, 100% OEKO-TEX® certified cotton canvas and natural pinewood pole, making this play space completely plastic and chemicals free.
This circus style tent would bring a ray of sunshine into any play space. Love the broad stripes and the pompom on top! I would buy this if I had little ones. I might still buy it!
Perfect little play tent for kids to spark hours of imaginative fun! Bright, cheerful, and a big hit for playdates!
Great colour choices and easy to pack away when not in use. Lovely design too!
Such a chic tent. I love the considered colourways and the pompom on top is the sweetest finishing touch - playful and stylish.”

Who:Tutti Bambini
What:The Casa Grande Montessori Floor Bed
Why:
The switch from cot to bed can often be tricky for little ones so our judges were delighted to meet the The Casa Grande Montessori Floor Bed, which reimagines this milestone transition with emotional insight and design-led confidence. The floor level means children can easily climb in and out safely, while the protective barriers keep them feeling safe and secure at night. Our judges felt the quality was superb and loved the potential for personalisation with bunting and drapes.
This is brilliant. A bed that toddlers will want to stay in. Love that you can hang bunting and fabric on it.
Great design! I like that you can dress the bedframe up or keep it minimal. Would look lovely in any child's bedroom.
The dream big girl or boy bed! The play house design makes this feel like an exciting upgrade from a cot. There will be no bribes necessary to keep them in it!
A beautifully made bed that will be the proud centrepiece of any kids’ bedroom.

Who:Stepup Baby
What:Stepup Baby Toddler Tower – an enclosed stool that allows toddlers and children to stand safely at countertop, sink and table height.
Why:
Our judges could see exactly how useful and reassuring this specially designed toddler tower would be at home. They panel loved the sleek minimal design, the easy to clean surface and the steadiness of its construction. The perfect piece of equipment for encouraging young children to get involved and feel included in cooking, crafting and even brushing their teeth. The JDA judges were also impressed with this product’s responsibly sourced wood and durable, non-toxic finish.
I remember how surprisingly wobbly toddlers and young children can be. This tower will give kids a sense of confidence and parents a reassuring hand.
This is a great addition to the family home when kids are finding their feet and their place at the kitchen counter.
Such a great idea for families who love to cook together.
Not an exaggeration to say that this has changed our lives - my daughter spends so much time in hers either keeping me company while I cook, and she loves to place it in front of the sink and play happily with the washing up bowl for ages. I adore this!
