Who:Triclimb
What:Triclimb Arben Range - A multifunctional, interconnecting range of climbing toys
Why:
It’s not often that the large scale toys that kids absolutely love, look beautiful in your home, but these impeccably crafted, ethically made climbing frames with a choice of rainbow or natural wood slats really do.
Many of our judges gave these exciting multifunctional structures the maximum score, all agreeing that they would encourage open-ended play, nurture imaginations and help develop fine motor skills and a sense of adventure.
Perfect for keeping out on display in playrooms but the beauty of these frames is that they fold up really compactly for anyone who needs to keep their space flexible. A wonderful long-term investment that can be used as a jungle gym for new babies and then gradually becomes something to play on and in!
Ethical, sustainable and a joy to look at and play on! I love the fact that you can adapt any frame with a myriad of different add-ons or just your own imagination.

Why:
This super versatile, highly padded play mat that can be turned from flat mat into cocooning nest with the pull of a drawstring really excited our judges who could see just how useful it would be to parents and how reassuring and safe it would feel for babies. In high side mode you can guarantee a small baby will stay put no matter how good they are at rolling while in flat mode they can see all around them and get some great tummy time
For older children it makes a great little den or toy store. The panel also liked the fact that it rolls up compactly for transporting, making it a great way to guarantee you have the perfect spot for an on the go cat nap.
Perfect for creating a little baby base camp when flat and when the sides are up this mat feels like a sweet little den that kids will love from tiny to toddler and beyond. A super versatile product with great longevity.
Beautiful design, love the hues and different ways to use.
Like a wonderful quilted Lily Pad to rest on and hop in and out of. Who wouldn’t want to curl up for a nap on this?!
