Welcome to Tyrrell Katz Designer Kids Essentials

Original, playful essentials for everyday childhood adventures

Discover a world of functional art with Tyrrell Katz Designer Essentials, with a range of fun, creative, and useful items like backpacks, drinking bottles, and more. Whether you’re looking for the perfect kid’s gift or a fun way to personalise your everyday essentials, Tyrrell Katz has something for everyone.

Welcome to Tyrrell Katz, the family-run UK design studio weaving over 20 years of creativity into charming, hand‑illustrated kids' essentials. From school‑ready backpacks to mealtime-friendly melamine tableware — and everything in between — our range brings big smiles and practicality to daily routines. Each product begins with a story: whimsical characters, space adventures, roaring dinosaurs, magical unicorns, farmyard fun, and secret gardens — all hand-drawn by founder and illustrator James Tyrrell. We combine spirited design with thoughtful function. Our children’s backpacks and bags are hard‑wearing and comfortable, ready for school, sleepovers, or family days out. An ideal bottle pocket and easy‑access front zip make them as practical as they are delightful. Our melamine tableware — including plates, bowls, beakers, divider trays, cutlery, and coverall bibs — is BPA‑free, durable, and easy to clean, designed for everyday meals or picnics. As a family business, our roots run deep. Founded over two decades ago, Tyrrell Katz remains true to its values: safe, quality products that are bright, playful, and full of longevity.

I Love the Designs
I love the designs for children's products and recently bought melamine table wear which I am very pleased with (and so are the kids!).

Would Definitely Buy Again
Chose the trucks design for my two year old grandson and purchased a towel and some tableware. Gorgeous designs for both girls and boys and lovely bright colours . So pleased to have found this website. Service was excellent - I received my parcel the day after ordering. Would definitely buy again from Tyrrell Katz . Thank you

Definitely the Best for Children
Super fast delivery and amazing service. Their design is lovely and really good materials. Colours don’t fade and you can wash them in the dishwasher. Definitely the best for children

I Love This Company!
I love this company! I have placed 2 orders and both were delivered so quickly, packaged beautifully and my grandchildren love their plates and bowls, so much so I ordered them for their Mummy and Daddy’s house too!

The print is flawless!
So pleased with the crockery and cutlery I bought for my little girl, who is 2. The quality is excellent, and the print on it is completely flawless! My daughter has loved using it. It’s been in and out of the dishwasher dozens of times and still looks as fresh as the day I bought it. Highly recommended. Google Review

High quality
As soon as I saw farm and vehicle themed cups and plates and other items I had to get it. And they did not disappoint, the items seem to be of a high quality and I have washed them several times already and they are looking like new. I will be purchasing again from them.

The most durable kids stuff
Hands down the most durable kids stuff you can buy. Bright and colourful designs, and the plates, bowls and mugs go through the dishwasher and come out looking just like new. Highly, highly recommended. Google Review

Really impressed
Really impressed with the products I’ve recently purchased (trucks themed blanket and toddler drinks bottle). My little one will love them! Perhaps a little more than I’d usually spend, but great quality so I’m really pleased. I will probably end up wanting to buy the whole range... but one piece at a time for now! Delivery was also really quick. No complaints here.
