When I originally wrote this article in 2018, there were not many Pikler Triangles being made commercially. This has changed and Pikler Triangles are now available everywhere. I understand that there are many more companies out there but I’m a Cloth Diaper Blogger and this post continues to rank.
Where can you buy a Pikler Triangle?
- Amazon
- Etsy
- Local Crafter
- Direct from Pikler Triangle Brands
- Make One Yourself
Personal Recommendation?
My kids are now bigger and we missed the Pikler Triangle Trend. Arguably, the next trend is those weird foam couches and other interesting indoor climbing gyms – check out these great alternatives to the Pikler Triangle.
I would buy one that collapses next time. There are so many incredible different shapes and styles now – and my biggest frustration as a parent is that the Pikler Triangle that we made didn’t collapse. I hated how much room it took up in our space.
I am very happy with our Brain Rich Kids Play Gym that we recently purchased two years ago. It takes up less room and is loved by kids aged 18 months to 9 years old.
These are some Etsy Pikler Building Companies that others have loved in my Facebook Communities and IG Friends
- ModernImaginationCo – based out of Squamish, BC, Modern Imagination Co is a hand crafted wooden toy company making Pikler Triangles, stacking Rainbows, and more toys and activities
- LilyAnd River – Also their website is above, but this company is based out of Arizona, United States and a fan favourite in my cloth diaper communities.
Check Locally
Here in Prince George, we have a growing group of carpenters and skilled women who are making beautiful children’s toys. For example, Cambium Furniture and Decor has made them for a local childcare facility. You can ask locally and see if someone will do it, or has done it, or is up to the task. You might be surprised at what is available and who might be up for the task. This is also a great way to connect with your community and maybe find one second hand.
It’s going to be expensive. We spent about $100 CDN on supplies, plus labour and skills, please don’t undervalue this unique experience. Find the instructions here.
If you know of someone who makes Pikler Triangles or climbing triangles for kids, feel free to share with the world below. Love to hear from you.
Great concise blog post. Thank you!
You forgot to mention Rad Childrens furniture! We were trying to decide between lily and River and Rad but after seeing how small the lily and River one was at a friends house, we ended up going with Rad. Rad it a bit more expensive but we believed it’ll last a lot longer as our daughter grows. She’s had it for about 10 months now and uses it every day! We’d totally recommend you add Rad to your list!
They might not have been creating when I started this post. But I’ll be sure to look into it. Thanks for the tip.
They have been around for many years! We have had one of their Pikler triangles since our first child was about a year old, she is now 6. Wonderful little shop in California where everything is handmade by a grandfather. We highly recommend them! We also have a little table and stools from them too!

Ah!woodZ makes and sells a Pikler triangle. We are based out of Port Credit, Mississauga Ontario. We currently only offer the triangle, no accessories. Our prices are fair considering we are made in Canada and offer free shipping in Canada. We just debuted our product line at the Bump Baby and Toddler Marketplace in hamilton. We are new to the web but you can check out some of our stuff on instagram @ah.woodz and on our etsy page http://www.etsy.com/ca/shop/ahwooDZ..
The link didn’t work… I’m from Kitchener Ontario and trying to find a pikler triangle so bad for my 10 month old son!!!
Just remove the periods at the end of the URL and it’ll work! https://www.etsy.com/ca/shop/ahwooDZ
Try Out of the Woods in Elora
I bought our Pikler Triangle from Ah Woodz and it just arrived today. The baby (10mo) and the 3 yr old climbed on it immediately. I’m very excited about the other products I bought from them!
Hi! I was so excited to find a Canadian company producing Pikler triangles! However, it appears the triangle is not eligible for free shipping on your etsy page?

Hello! We make Pikler triangles at Modern Imagination in Squamish, BC (Canada). We have both regular and large sizes, as well as reversible ramps. Our site is modernimaginationco.etsy.com or you can find us through Instagram at @modernimaginationtoys. Cheers!
Thanks for this! Any advice on things to look for? I’ve found several options on Amazon and Etsy, but looking for guidance on signs of quality, choosing the right size, nice-to-have features, etc.
Hello!
Thank you for the informative post! I’m looking for a Pikler Triangle for my almost 2-year-old. I see that different companies make different sizes – do you recommend a size that my 2-year-old will be able to use for a long time?
Thank you!
Hi, there. In Canada there is also The Montessori Room, they have all kind of Pikler / Waldorf / Montessori toys and furniture. It is a small brand from Toronto where everything is ethically hand made in Canada. I let you check their website if you want to add them http://www.themontessoriroom.com. (They have a showroom in Toronto and deliver all over Canada).
I’m sorry, their brand looks very chic but I can’t bring myself to spend so much money on toys from a company who has a tonne of spelling mistakes on their website. But that’s just me.. ??♀️
Not sure where you’re seeing those ?
My boyfriend is working on building one for my little one ? he’s a carpenter and has accesses to a full wood shop. He said if he enjoys making it and it’s worth his time he would be willing to make them locally for any Kelowna mamas ?
Hi!
I’m from Kelowna and I’m wondering if your boyfriend decided to make this into a hobby? I would love to purchase one locally.
Thanks!
Kaylyn
Not at all. We don’t make them, I’ve been really happy with the Kimboo one that I tried from a friend
Hey Bailey,
Would you be able to add our handmade Pikler Triangle company that my wife and I run to your list? We’re https://montessoriclimber.com and we make all our pikler triangles by hand. We’re a budding family of 4 and it’s turned from my hobby to my passion!

The 20% promo code you have listed for the Montessori Climber isn’t working when you click through. Do you have the actual promo code?
The 20% off the Montessori Climber link that you have above doesn’t work. Do you have the promo code to share with me via email? Thanks!
Hmmm… I was told 20% off would last throughout the year. I’ll look into it.
Did this get resolved? I was looking to buy one shortly and would love it if there was a coupon code.
Was this resolved as I am also interested as well.
It’s marked 20% automatic on their website direct – https://montessoriclimber.com/products/pikler-triangle
Please let me know about the 20% off code if you get any information. We are looking to buy a pk triangle within the next few days. Thanks!

Bailey thank you for the referrals! We ended up purchasing from Montessori Climber and our little one loves it! Appreciate your blog posts and how helpful they have been for new parents like us!
Sincerely,
John
Bailey, do you know of any companies that make a pikler triangle intended for year round outdoor use? I found one on etsy that ships inside Australia only, but nothing available in North America. Thanks!
I’m looking for one for my soon to be 4 year old grandson.
So I need a bigger one , who would you recommend?
I’m in USA
Hey Bailey!
I’m a huge fan of your site. We are slowly making a transition to cloth diapers #lifechanging LOL
On another note, we are a dual veteran owned business who specializes in Pikler Triangles. Would you mind checking out our site? Thank you so much!

Hello!
We are another husband and wife team building Pikler triangles. Ours are quite a bit larger than many on the market, and have also undergone safety testing to be CPSC-compliant. When we first started our journey and our company, we had no idea how unregulated the market was for the safety of many of these newly popular play structures.
Parents, even if you don’t buy from us, please ask if whomever you purchase from has gone through the safety testing process, and if you decide to build your own, take a peek at the ASTM and CPSC standards. Thanks for letting me share something I am passionate about!
