Educational aspect of toys

The simple, gentle shapes encourage children to let their imaginations run wild. These durable wooden toys stimulate creativity and are the perfect tool for creating varied stories. Ostheimer figures offer an impressive variety of animals and characters that allow for countless imaginative scenarios. Children can create different play worlds, from farms to fairy-tale kingdoms. Manufacturing and materials of the Ostheimer dwarf After a carefully developed design, each figure is handmade, allowing the natural beauty of the wood to shine through. The transparent, precisely coordinated colors allow the wood grain to shine through, making each piece unique. Organic oil protects the colors permanently. All colors used are saliva-proof, harmless to health, and free of animal products—ideal for the characteristic Ostheimer design. The wood is sourced from responsibly managed forests where ecological responsibility is a priority.

Warning: Not suitable for children under 3 years of age, as small parts may become detached or broken off and swallowed.
