Toddlers, pre-schoolers and school-age kids are a curious bunch.
But this latest launch might just keep them occupied for, well, more than five minutes.

And the new new activity table, the Play Every Way Table ($425), is one of their greatest creations yet.
Designed for kids 18 months and older, the Play Every Way Table features five core play modes, each targeting essential learning milestones.
There are five different ways to use it meaning it’s perfect for snacks, art and craft, games and more.
Think a flat table, sensory table, magnetic chalkboard, water paint, and ball run builder — all in one $400 device.
The table comes with a variety of tools and accessories for STEM play, art, storytelling, and storage.
You’ll get things like Magnets for the kids to play with, as well as Water Painter Sheets, a Water Pen and Table Leg Extenders — so as your child grows, you can make it taller.
There are also additional accessories you can buy, so it remains a toy your kids will want to play with long beyond the usual playstuff.
Overall, the Play Every Way Table is a versatile, long-lasting piece that encourages independent play, with children initiating activities and staying engaged as they grow.
Alongside this, the removable bins, lids, and catch-all caddies make it easy to store supplies and switch from one activity to the next.
While it’s expensive, here at 7You we’ve got it earmarked as the perfect gift to give your kids this Christmas.
I’ve got one in rotation right now with my girls, and both children are absolutely adoring the various elements, particularly the water painting option.
US brand Lovevery has built up a name for itself since it was launched by Jessica Rolph and Rod Morris.
It is built on research showing that a baby’s brain forms critical neural connections during the first three years of life through active, stage-based experiences.
Products are developed alongside academic researchers, Montessori specialists, occupational therapists, and early childhood educators.
Toys are made from organic cotton, sustainable wood, and child-safe finishes, designed to minimise household clutter, and many of the options are subscription-based.
