Educational aspect for creative play

Compared to plastic toys, Ostheimer figures offer a durable, natural alternative that is ideal for use in kindergartens and families. Ostheimer figures support children's development by stimulating creative play and being fun at the same time. This promotes both their emotional development and their social skills.

The natural material and simple shapes allow children to express themselves freely and use their imagination. The soft feel and restrained color scheme of the Ostheimer figures not only encourage imagination, but also creativity. Children can create varied scenarios with the numerous figures of this wooden toy and immerse themselves again and again in imaginative play worlds.

Manufacture and materials of the Ostheimer dwarfs

The production of each figure follows a proven pattern and is lovingly finished by hand, allowing the wood to shine in its most beautiful form. Wood from certified, sustainable European forestry stands for an environmentally conscious and future-proof approach. All colors are of non-animal origin and perfectly match the characteristic Ostheimer design. Finally, an organic oil protects the paint layer. The finely coordinated, saliva-resistant colors highlight the natural wood structure and make each piece truly unique.

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