In a world full of blinking plastic, wooden toys can seem old-fashioned. But ask any parent: the wooden blocks are still in use years after the batteries of other toys have died. Here's why we love them.
Open-ended play
A set of GRIMMS Rainbow Friends has no instructions. Today they're a family, tomorrow passengers in a train or a colour sorting game. This kind of free play stimulates creativity and concentration.
Made to last
Good wooden toys are sturdy, safe and can be passed on to brothers, sisters and even grandchildren. Wooden Story uses natural wood and non-toxic finishes, which makes their teethers safe for the very youngest.
Calm for the senses
The warmth and weight of wood feel good in small hands, and natural colours bring calm to the playroom. A marble run or a knob puzzle teaches cause and effect without overstimulation.
