Pedagogical value for imaginative play

Compared to other toys, they create a warm, natural atmosphere and offer a haptic experience. They are also valuable in Waldorf education as they support the child's natural development. 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 creativity. They encourage free, creative play and invite children to re-enact stories and scenes from everyday life. At the same time, they develop basic social skills as they create their own stories and adventures. Children are encouraged to let their imaginations run wild with the simple, soft shapes.

Learning through play with Ostheimer figures combines the fun of play with a high educational added value. Children can create varied scenarios with the numerous figures of 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 knights

The color coordination is precisely tailored to the Ostheimer design. The final oil protects the colors, which are saliva-proof, harmless to health and free from animal ingredients. By using transparent glazes, the wood structure remains visible and gives each piece a unique character. The use of wood from sustainable forestry ensures a balance between the use of resources and conservation. Each figure is created according to a clearly defined design and is finely handcrafted to present the wood in its pure form.

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