Sarah's Silks Playsilks from Oskar's Wooden Ark are perfect for creative and open-ended play.

It's amazing to see what children create with them: some kids make costumes like capes, skirts, pants, hats, veils, animal tails and more. The next day the same silks become green grass for their toy animals to live on, blue water to sail the boats, or a rainbow can appear in the sky above them.

Many children wrap their dolls in them or tie them on as a sling to carry a favourite animal or doll around. They can be used to build forts with sofa cushions, for a puppet show curtain, and for magic tricks. The possibilities are as limitless as your child's imagination.

Sarah's Silks Earth Playsilks are also available in the mini version.

Sarah’s silks

I had been so on the fence about getting silks for my boys then decided to just give it a go, and I’m so happy I did! My boys play with them all the time. They are so versatile and can be used for so many things. Absolutely love them and will definitely be buying more!

Sarah’s silks

I bought my children a collection of Sarah’s silks for Christmas. They are so beautiful to look at and touch and so far they have been windows, cubby walls, scene setters, capes, blankets and headwear. I’m trying very hard not to buy more.

Sarah’s Silk Desert

We LOVE this silk! We gave it to our youngest daughter to line her Easter basket, And since then it has been a cape, sand on the beach, a doll wrap and a blanket. Sarah’s silks are amazing quality, and especially the enchanted and earth series, there’s an extra element of magic in the mix of colours.

Beautiful quality

As a sewer I was going to just sew our own silks but decided to invest in 1 and when it arrived. The quality is beautiful and so light the way it falls when it's being played with. We are about 1 year into open ended play and wooden toys and our first Sarah's silk will not be our last

Perfect open ended toy

Not only are these silks beautiful, they can be used in so many ways for imaginative play- capes, baby wraps, landscapes for small world play, a sling for playing ‘doctors’.. I could go on!

I purchased one green and blue one for my children to use with their animals. They also enjoy using them to make cubbies, dolls blankets and dress ups. Both colours are stunning.

Beautiful colours and feel

I bought my son two more playsilks after he loved his rainbow silk so much. The colours are divine and they feel so light and airy. He loves hiding underneath for a game of peekaboo. Or we drape them over our pikler to build a cubby. However what he loves the most is wearing it as a cape and run around the house being a super hero 😍

Gorgeous colours and feel

Our silks are very loved even on day 2 of having them! My 11mo loves feeling them, playing peekaboo, carrying it around and even putting it on the dog and playing peekaboo with the dog. They are so soft and the Earth colours are just magical.
