These toys not only promote playtime fun, but also creative learning. Ostheimer figures enable free play that encourages both learning and creativity in children. These handcrafted figures provide a tactile experience that encourages children to explore their surroundings.

Playful learning and creative development go hand in hand and promote important skills. Whether animals, people or fairy tale figures - the variety of these wooden toys encourages creative play and makes it possible to recreate exciting adventures in ever new worlds. With the large selection of Ostheimer figures, children can create imaginative scenarios.

Manufacture and materials of the Ostheimer chicken

The wood is sourced from certified, sustainably managed forests in Europe to support environmental protection and preserve nature. The saliva-safe colors are free of animal products and harmless to health – perfect for the Ostheimer design. The precisely coordinated, transparent colors emphasize the wood structure and give each piece its individual touch. Organic oil protects the colors. Based on an artistically designed pattern, each figurine is made by hand using traditional methods to preserve the natural structure of the wood.

Warning note: Caution! Not suitable for children under 3 years of age, as small parts can fall off or be broken off and swallowed.
