    Kids kitchen helper plans.

    I have been asked to build a Kids kitchen helper.
    I did a search on SMC but came up blank.
    What is the common name for this project? It is a step stool like item that has a safety rail around it for kids to help in the kitchen,
    Due to a lack of shop time. I am looking for a quick build. Most likley pocket screws ,common construction lumber and painted. Not mortise and tenon and Oak.

    TIP: make the vertical members rise at least 3/8" above the top rail. This will allow things to be hooked over that projection. Things like aprons or the loops on potholders. I learned this by making a second chair for my Nieces and nephew.

    I did a google search for Kids Kitchen Helper and found a number of designs. Here is one. Apparently they are also called Safe Step Stool.

    My daughter made one for her girls. I seem to recall that she got the plans from the Anna White site.
