How hard is it for little ones to climb up to the platform using the indents?

My little grandson, who got this at 13 months, preferred to climb up the slide, then slide down. Now, at 15 months, he can easily climb up the indents.

My grandchild used this with all the little toddlers at her first birthday party. It was perfect, as she was able to climb, crawl under crawl through... Etc!

Grand daughter just 14 mo; but has been walking since the age of 10 mo. She does not use indents she just leans and used elbows and feet to pull herself up on platform. She also (if she has shoes on) tries to crawl up slide.

My great grandson is 2 1/2 years he does not use the indents he just uses the handrails and climbs up onto the platform. At 2 1/2 he has almost outgrown it.

My tall 20 month-old grandson manages to get onto the platform, though not using the handholds and indents as intended.

My kids don't use the indents on the one side, they use the ladder on the other side or climb through the back. As well as just climbing up the slide itsself :) They both love it.

I got rid of this product as the one sent to me was very unsafe. That said, I did see the product and the stairs seem to be about the same as the slide I bought to replace it. Very easy for my average height 18 month old to climb.

It's not too tough I guess. My active 18 month old figured it out quickly. Her foot fits in the ladder openings so she can stand and put her weight on it.

Yes, I regularly climb up with my son to get him to sleep. Combined we're a little over that. Although I do find the ladder runs hurt my feet a little bit.

It might be too tall for him/her, they would have to reach up to push it. I would say better for a 2+ year old.

Not very easily. My daughter (12) pretty much has to help me or the sides collapse.

I believe there are three levels. My baby is now 2 and using it as a daybed. The first level is high for babies that are not yet crawling. Then there is a middle level and the last level is very low. My son started climbing out at about 18 months, even at the lowest level. Where the changing table is connected to the bed he could get his foot up on the piece and lift himself up and over the rail, so we had to go ahead and to the daybed. Hope this helps.

Not sure but ladders, pools, and 4 year olds aren't a good mix. I just lift them in and out for now until I can trust them to not climb in when I'm not 100% focused on them being in the pool.

The stool can definitely handle it. But if the child wants to crawl out of the side or climb off the top he could do that.

Not very hard. The handle is easy to grip and pull down. My little 12 year old brother has no problem at all, I would assume anyone 8 and up would be about right for such a product. In addition I'd recommend searching YouTube videos for more information. Hopefully this helps!

My 2.5 year old twins climb it. One is very coordinated, the other not as physically coordinated but he still navigates it safely. I still get nervous seeing them scale it high up. But having a soft landing around the structure would help nervous parents. I'm 5'5" and if I raise my hands in the air over my head I can just reach the top. So it's a bit of a distance to fall for a toddler on a hard surface.

My son has been climbing into his for a few months (he's 26 months). He occasionally gets his shirt caught on the middle post when he climbs down on his own but has figured out how to avoid that too.

It's not hard really at all. Just takes a few times doing it to get the hang of it because you need to pull it back towards you then slightly raise it to get it going down.

Typically the beds for our son but I have slept in the bottom I have also had friends sleep on it. No adult has tried climbing to the top though.

We go this for our 5,3,and 18 month old twins. Moistly because it's challenging and we wanted something they could use a lot of energy on. So far the twins can only climb the nets, but they love to go through the holes in the bottom part. I think it'd be super fun for a two year old. We do have it inside on thick mats on top of the carpet.

My best guess a foot and a half, We dont have ours up right now. The slide side is higher. Keep in mind little ones would need to enter on the left side and exit down the slide. My Lil guy would get upset because at first he could not climb the slide (it's also kind of slippery).

If your in at least average shape it's not to hard to get into, however my kids ages 5 and 6 both needed help getting in. I'm pretty sure you can hang a small ladder from the side.

I have two grandchildren, one 9 and one 4. My granddaughter (4) is up on them about 10 times a day and they have not teetered nor overbalanced. They sit under a 36" overhang of granite so she does have something to stabilize herself with, but she is like a little monkey climbing on everything. I'm not saying there won't ever be an accident, but I'm saying I'm comfortable enough with them to let my grandchildren get on them without assistance.

I would say no if you have a climbed. We used it before my son could walk to climb. If I used it now..my son is 18 months old.. Hed tear it to shreds!
