Carousel
Few things are as irresistible as sitting on this Gonge carousel and spinning faster and faster while the giggles take over.
And the best part? All that spinning fun is brilliant for your child’s motor skills and senses too. While your child is busy laughing and twirling around, they’re also strengthening their vestibular sense, balance, and core and arm muscles as they work to stay upright.
The slightly slanted seat has raised edges, giving children something secure to hold onto while spinning and helping them maintain their balance as they move. It doesn’t take much effort to get the carousel going, and children can easily control the speed themselves.
The carousel consists of:
a durable plastic seat mounted on a swivelling base
a sturdy steel frame with non-slip rubber grips underneath
Please note: the carousel seat used to be red, but is now only available in orange.
Suitable from age 3.
Maximum load: 50 kg.

Play is essential for children’s learning, well-being, and development. Through play, children learn about themselves and the world around them.
Play helps children:
• stay curious
• focus and become absorbed in what they're doing
• take on age-appropriate challenges
• build confidence
We believe children learn best by doing things for themselves:
• by making mistakes
• by getting messy
• by falling down and getting back up again
Resilience, confidence, and courage grow through experience, one small step at a time.
That's why we carefully choose toys that encourage independence, imagination, movement, and social skills — offering just the right balance of support, freedom, and opportunities to grow.
Carefully selected toys
We carefully handpick every toy from the vast world of toys available today. The only toys that make it into our range are ones we'd be happy to give our own children.
Every toy at ToyAcademy should:
• support learning through play
• be made from durable, high-quality materials
• be safe and enjoyable for children to play with

At ToyAcademy, we believe children should get the chance to use their body and their brain as much as possible. Allowing your child to roll, jump, rock, tumble, and crawl all over your furniture gives them opportunities for lots of extra physical activity in their daily life. And that’s only a good thing, because your child's proprioception simply can’t be overstimulated.
Motor skills furniture from ToyAcademy is robust and can withstand years of active play.
