Timeless Wooden Toys For Open Ended Play & Learning
Grimm’s Wooden Toys are crafted in Germany by a family-owned company dedicated to open-ended play, natural materials and timeless design. Since 1978, they have created sustainably made wooden toys that support creativity, learning and meaningful everyday moments for children and adults alike.
Each piece is designed with simple forms, soft colours and tactile wooden textures that invite children to build, stack and imagine freely. Guided by Waldorf and Montessori principles, Grimm’s toys encourage exploration, problem-solving and imaginative thinking without limits or instructions.
Made from sustainably sourced alder, beech, lime and maple wood, every toy is carefully finished using safe, non-toxic colour stains. Built to last for generations, Grimm’s supports fine motor development, sensory learning and creative confidence through beautifully crafted wooden play.

A.A. This item gets played with so often in our house.
I bought this when my daughter was 9 months she is now 2 years old and still reaches for it often, it has been a very well loved toy. So great for motor skills and learning colours !

R.G. Bought for our newborn to grow into, but our two year old just loves stacking it in all different orders too.

EMily V. My two year old son absolutely loves this conical stacker. He uses it obviously for stacking but also for building, ball runs, car ramps and more.
C
Carina H. Both my sons 4 & 2 love them. You can do so many things with both

Madeline S. A simply beautiful piece, we gifted this to our then 10 month old at Christmas and it is still a firm favourite at 18months. The colours are beautifully bright and this is certainly a piece that will last and be enjoyed for years to come.

Penelope L. This stacking tower is so beautifully made and much loved by both my children (8m & 2.5yrs). It can be used for so much more than just “stacking”.

Kate B. Love this comical stacking tower. It’s been used by my daughter every day. As well as stacking she’s been rolling the pieces across the room! We have also been doing colour recognition and she’s getting her grasp of colours down pat. Also it looks beautiful on the shelf - important for Mum. 😄

Sarah M. We bought this for our little girl's first Christmas and everyone wants to play with it. Each piece feels weighty and solid in your hand, the texture makes you want to touch it, it's fun and interesting for our baby girl and it looks beautiful on the shelf! Plus the Oskars delivery process was easy and they include little personal touches which makes you feel like part of the Oskars family! Can't wait for my next purchase!

Jodi O. My 7mo has absolutely loved playing with this tower and admiring the different colours! His older siblings are enjoying showing him how to put it together and have also been playing with it when he’s not around - the very top disc is quite small so best to be played with under supervision but overall a great size for the kids to play with & it will get lots of love here! Thanks OWA!

Alina V. The products have great quality, colors and so versatile to play with. I had to hide the cap as it's too small for the 8 months old who tried to fit the whole thing in her mouth.

Kylie C. I purchased this for my 15 month old, what I didn't expect was how much my 3 year old (almost 4) would play with it. It's been a fun challenge for the 3 year old and he's made a few combinations. My 15 month old has loved pulling it down and trying to work out how to put the circle through the stick. It looks so beautiful and inviting in the playroom too.

Kimberley G. We love this little addition to our toy room and it has been played with non stop since it arrived. Glad I waited a little to get it (our little one is a bit over a year and a half) he’s getting so much out of learning how to stack and get the colours and sizes in the ‘right’ order as well as mixing and matching to make fun patterns.
M
Mandy I originally purchased this for my 15 month old, but my 3 year old has been just as (if not more) interested in it. It's so beautiful to look at and handle, and clearly appropriately loved across multi age groups. So great for hand eye co-ordination, fine motor, colour recognition, building patterns...the list goes on. We love it!
K
Karen O. Bueatiful bright colours which are sure to attract curios little minds. I can see hours of fun for my yougest grandon and his older brothers.

Cornelia M. This stacker is absolutely perfect for my daughter! It’s not too big so as to overwhelm her but it still challenges her and therefore keeps her interested for hours!
C
Carolynn D. The stacking tower is perfect for my 11 month old. It's so light for his wee hands to hold and navigate. This is the first of many Grimm's purchases!
A
Antonia L. This is so beautifully made. My 18 mo is delighted with this toy. I’m so pleased with it

Laura My little boy is 10 months old and hasn't mastered stacking the circles on the post often yet, but he loves to pull them all off! His favourite thing is to knock them all down! You can use other items (grapat bowls, grimms stacking bowls & stacking moons) as layers between the circles to build taller towers. Can also colour code :) You can also invert the circles and build it upside down!

chloe h. Our stacked arrived 4 days ago and we are already missing a piece (It's under the couch I'm sure) but my Little one has not stopped playing and experimenting with this beautifully made stacker. Being thinner then the standard plastic stackers this really helps to challenge and develop his hand eye co ordination. We love it.
M
Melinda Everyone in the family loves playing with this stacking tower from 1 yo to 70 yo grandma, the only limit is your imagination. Great for developing colour recognition, size recognition, pattern making, developing fine motor skills, etc. will be used for years to come.
