Folding Step Stool

“One of the most-loved and well-used small-space-friendly items in our house is a folding stepstool we bought for our toddler daughter. (If you have never lived with a 3-year-old: Let me be the first to dispel you of the notion that they're warm, giggling, snuggly balls of dough. In truth, they possess cold steel backbones and they will stop at nothing to get their way, especially when that entails getting their own socks from their drawers or washing their hands BY THEMSELVES.) This is where a portable stool comes in very handy. It also happens to fold up flat and comes in great colors.”
