Added educational value and imaginative play

Ostheimer wooden figures and wooden animals are characterized by their soft, child-friendly shapes, which train the sense of touch and contribute to the development of the imagination. Compared to other toys, they create a warm, natural atmosphere and offer a haptic experience. They encourage free, creative play and invite children to re-enact stories and scenes from everyday life. They are also valuable in Waldorf education as they support the child's natural development. These handcrafted figures not only encourage free play, but also stimulate thinking and imagination, which is crucial for children's development.

Ostheimer figures offer children the opportunity to develop their imagination through creative play and experience lots of fun at the same time. Children can create varied scenarios with the numerous figures in this wooden toy and immerse themselves again and again in imaginative play worlds. The soft feel and restrained color scheme of the Ostheimer figures not only encourage imagination, but also creativity.

Manufacture and materials of the Ostheimer kangaroo

Handcrafted according to a fixed pattern, the precise manual work brings out the uniqueness and naturalness of the wood. Wood from sustainably managed forests combines resource-conserving use with the protection of nature. It is then treated with organic oil to protect the colors. The saliva-resistant paints are harmless to health, free from animal ingredients and precisely matched to the classic Ostheimer design. The natural water-based wood stains leave the wood grain visible and give each piece its uniqueness.

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