Wobbel Original Bamboo Balance Board with Wool Felt
The Wobbel Original Bamboo Balance Board with wool felt backing is a beautifully curved, eco-conscious movement toy made from caramelised bamboo and FSC beech wood. The wool felt base protects hard floors, reduces noise, and adds grip, making this board ideal for family homes, nurseries, and active play spaces. Designed for children and adults, the Wobbel supports balance, coordination, strength, and imaginative play from birth onwards.
What is a Wobbel Board?
A Wobbel Board is a strong, curved wooden board that encourages natural movement and open-ended play. Children instinctively explore rocking, balancing, climbing, and tipping. This gentle, rhythmic movement develops balance, core strength, body awareness, and coordination. As an open-ended toy, a Wobbel becomes a bridge, ramp, tunnel, seat, step, or part of small-world play, adapting effortlessly to different ages and stages.
Why choose the bamboo Wobbel
The Bamboo Wobbel features a top and bottom layer made from side-pressed, caramelised bamboo, with inner layers of FSC certified beech wood. Bamboo grows quickly and renewably, making it a more sustainable choice. Its natural grain gives each board a warm, modern look. The child-safe, water-based lacquer protects the surface and enhances its durability.
Why choose the wool felt backing
This version includes a natural wool felt base that:
- Protects wooden, tiled, and laminate floors
- Softens noise during rocking
- Provides gentle grip for safe movement
- Offers a natural, tactile finish
If you mainly use the board on hard floors and prefer natural materials, the wool felt backing is an excellent choice.
How children and adults use the Wobbel
- Babies and toddlers practise gentle rocking, climbing, and balance
- Preschoolers integrate the board into creative play worlds
- Older children experiment with balance challenges and active movement
- Adults use the Wobbel for stretching, fitness, and core training
The Wobbel Bamboo is strong, stylish, and versatile, providing long-lasting value for the whole family.
