Mealtime Play is Encouraged!

Were you ever told not to play with your food when you were growing up?  What would you have done if there was a loophole and you could play around your food?  Would you?

The railway tracks can be arranged into multiple patterns on the table, or flipped over to create a more formal flat dining surface. Place settings fall naturally into the track designs.

UK-based 3Foot3 Design has introduced TrackTile™ Tables.  There are four (4) track designs which come in standard four (4) and six (6) seat options.

Each table comes with a motorized train. You can purchase additional trains, if desired.

There are finger holes in the base of the table so that the individual tiles can be easily accessed and lifted out of place.

I love that they’re using the trains to pass chocolates around the table!! Of course, you can put whatever you’d like into the trains or let them travel empty.

The tables are currently only available with a standard Beech veneer.  Non-standard finishes are considered custom orders at this point.  However, TrackTile™ will soon offer contrasting wood grain tracks and colour-laminated tiles.

Custom sizes are available by special order.

    Very clever but some kids would never get done with their meals (some men too). Perfect for all those train lovers.

      Agreed! I know more than a few who would be terminally distracted. That’s why I love that the tiles can be flipped over at times when play is not appropriate.
