Educational benefits with fun creative play

Ostheimer wooden animals and wooden figures are perfect for encouraging children's free play and imagination. These toys not only promote fun play, but also creative learning.

Their soft shapes stimulate the sense of touch and offer a calming, nature-loving atmosphere, which is also valued in Waldorf education. Through imaginative play with the handmade wooden figures, children discover new ways of expressing themselves. This supports their cognitive development and helps them to acquire important social skills.

Creative role play with Ostheimer figures promotes learning and stimulates children's imaginations. Whether animals, people or fairy tale characters - the variety of these wooden toys encourages creative play and allows exciting adventures to be recreated in ever new worlds. With the large selection of Ostheimer figures, children can create imaginative scenarios.

Manufacture and materials of the Ostheimer polar bear

The wood used comes from sustainably managed forests, where the conservation of natural resources is a top priority. Based on a detailed pattern, each figure is created by hand so that the wood can unfold its full splendor. The final oil protects the colors sustainably. The use of transparent paints that emphasize the natural wood grain makes each product unique. The saliva-safe and non-toxic paints are carefully matched to the characteristic Ostheimer design and contain no animal ingredients.

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