Tested, trusted and 100% safe

We pride ourselves on manufacturing products that put children’s safety above all else. To fulfill that mission, we design and test our products to meet or exceed international safety standards.

Preschool is an extension of the home, and a launchpad into primary school and the world at large. While every area in a classroom is important, our heart and history are rooted in block play and dramatic play – the critical spaces where children construct their world and challenge assumptions about their roles in society. Discover Guidecraft and explore how our thoughtfully designed products help promote and support holistic learning models that strengthen the bonds between children and families while fostering independence, curiosity and self-determination.
