Educational value with creative play

Their soft shapes stimulate the sense of touch and offer a calming, nature-loving atmosphere, which is also appreciated in Waldorf education. Unlike technical toys, which often encourage passive play, Ostheimer wooden toys encourage children to actively invent stories. Ostheimer wooden animals and wooden figures are perfect for encouraging children's free play and imagination. These toys not only promote playtime fun, but also creative learning. The handmade wooden figures help children to learn through play and develop their creativity. Encouraging imagination and creative play with Ostheimer figures is a key aspect of children's development.

This strengthens both imagination and problem-solving skills. Ostheimer figures are not only robust and durable, but also enable children to create exciting adventures and imaginative play worlds with these wooden toys thanks to their variety of shapes and themes. The figures fit together perfectly and encourage children to invent their own stories.

Manufacture and materials of the Ostheimer ice floe

The wood is sourced from sustainably managed forest areas, where special emphasis is placed on the careful use of natural resources. The figures are traditionally handcrafted according to established patterns, whereby each piece remains unique. The colors are saliva-proof, harmless to health and of course free of animal ingredients. Finally, organic oil is used to protect the colors. Transparent colors allow the unique wood grain to shine through and give each piece its individual character. Each shade of color is precisely matched to preserve the unmistakable Ostheimer design.

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