Through free play, children develop their motor skills and playfully learn to create their own stories and scenarios.

Ostheimer figures not only offer playtime fun, but also numerous learning benefits for children. The variety of Ostheimer figures and animals allows children to explore different themed worlds. Whether they slip into the role of a knight, farmer or adventurer - the high-quality wooden toys offer countless opportunities to invent and realize new stories again and again.

Manufacture and materials of the Ostheimer giraffe

Each figure is handcrafted according to a fixed pattern with great care to preserve the natural beauty of the wood. Wood from sustainably managed forests combines resource-conserving use with the protection of nature. 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 note: Caution! Not suitable for children under 3 years of age, as small parts can be detached or broken off and swallowed.
