Whatsie Play Couch: The Aussie solution transforming playtime

The Whatsie Play Couch is changing the way children play and learn across Australia. Designed with kids' needs in mind, this versatile piece of furniture is quickly becoming a staple in homes, providing hours of imaginative play and development.

The Whatsie is more than just a couch. It’s a modular play system made up of individual pieces—four square base cushions, two full-length half trapezium pieces, two armrests, and two round cushions—that can be easily rearranged to create anything from a fort to an obstacle course. The possibilities are endless, making it an ideal toy for fostering creativity and motor skills in children.

One of the standout features of the Whatsie is its focus on safe, open-ended play. The pieces are designed to withstand rough play without collapsing, reducing the risk of injury. Whether your child is building a cubby, setting up a stage, or creating a vehicle, the Whatsie provides a sturdy and reliable base for their imagination to run wild.

What sets the Whatsie apart from other play couches is its thoughtful design, which was developed in collaboration with paediatric medical specialists. The fabric is both stain and water-resistant, making it durable enough to withstand everyday spills and messes. Plus, it’s machine washable, ensuring that clean-up is as easy as playtime.

Since its launch in 2020, the Whatsie has quickly gained popularity, winning multiple awards, including Gold in the SHE-Com Awards and Silver in the ROAR Awards. Its success is a testament to its ability to meet the needs of modern families—providing children with a fun and educational way to play while giving parents peace of mind.

The Whatsie has expanded its range to include different sizes and add-ons, such as the Armie and the Shortie, allowing families to customise their play setups. The brand is also looking to grow internationally, with plans to introduce the Whatsie to the US market and develop more play-based learning products.

The Whatsie Play Couch is more than just a piece of furniture; it’s a tool for growth, creativity, and endless fun. By encouraging kids to explore, build, and imagine, the Whatsie is making a positive impact on children’s development, one playtime at a time.
