Added educational value and fun in creative 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. They encourage free, creative play and invite children to re-enact stories and scenes from everyday life. 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. 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 have lots of fun at the same time. The figures fit together perfectly and encourage children to invent their own stories. 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.

Manufacture and materials of the Ostheimer St. Nicholas

The wood is sourced from sustainably managed forest areas, where special emphasis is placed on the careful use of natural resources. The saliva-safe and non-hazardous paints are free from animal products and precisely matched to support Ostheimer's unique design. Organic oil protects the colors. The hand-applied, transparent colors allow the wood structure to come into its own, giving each piece its individual character. The handcrafted production is based on a sophisticated pattern, with each figure being handcrafted from the best wood.

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