Ostheimer tree: awakening enthusiasm for nature

The Ostheimer tree is deeply rooted. With it as a place of grounding and tranquillity, nature comes into play. This is where children's imaginations come to life. Dancing flower children spinning around the thick trunk in a round dance, a small group of funny animals and even a family with a baby in swaddling clothes feel at home near this woody giant.

And the tree itself also becomes a teaching object. Because there are not only oaks, firs and apple trees. Palm trees and steppe trees bring children close to distant worlds. The surroundings can also be freely designed. With grass, trees and bushes, the play world grows into a large field of experience. The perfect place for imaginative play for children, very close to Mother Nature.

 

The wide range of Ostheimer trees in our shop

Ostheimer trees and bushes are indispensable elements of any play world, as they provide the figures with a lively and realistic environment. Whether it's a farm, a knight's castle, or Noah's Ark, trees and bushes provide a natural backdrop and really bring the scenarios to life. They offer shelter for animals, mark paths, and create places of retreat for the figures. These trees stimulate children's imaginations, as they can tell their stories in an individual and lively way by designing the landscape.

Are the trees also suitable for a seasonal table?

Ostheimer trees are ideal for use on a seasonal table. Their natural colors and shapes reflect the different seasons and can be adapted depending on the season. For example, the apple tree and pear tree have blossoms on one side and fruit on the other. This flexibility makes the trees ideal companions for a seasonal table, which sharpens children's awareness of the changes in nature and creates an inspiring environment throughout the year.

How can flexible landscapes be created?

Versatile landscape elements such as the meadow, ice floes, or two-piece pond can be used to create flexible and dynamic play worlds. These elements offer numerous combination possibilities and allow children to create their own fantasy landscapes. Here are a few examples:

  • The meadow can serve as the basis for a farm or forest scene and can be expanded as desired.
  • The ice floes are perfect for winter landscapes or Arctic scenarios where animals such as penguins or polar bears live.
  • The two-piece pond can be arranged in various ways to represent rivers, lakes, or small pools that can be integrated into the landscape.

This flexibility allows children to create new play worlds again and again and to customize the flora and fauna with Ostheimer trees and other landscape elements. These possibilities encourage creativity and ensure that play never becomes boring.
