Glückskäfer Bark Blocks

Build towers, houses, castles and make other imaginative constructions and patterns with this 36-piece wooden block set which is natural as it can be. This natural block set is made from kiln-dried, cut branch pieces in different shapes and sizes. There are smooth round discs and pillars that can be easily stacked, as well as more unusual shapes to add a challenge for creative builders. Smooth on the cut faces and with the raw bark on the reverse, these wooden blocks have a simple feel that brings children closer to nature. Each set is unique and comes in a cotton net storage bag. Keep away from the family dog!

Sizes vary due to the nature of this toy. To give an idea of the scale, the smallest discs are around 2cm x 5cm and the two longest pieces are around 15cm long.

Suitable from age 3. Flaking bark can be a choking hazard to children under 3.

Made from solid sustainably certified European wood. 

Sensory toy: pincer grip, motor skills, touch

Schematic play: positioning. This toy will appeal to children interested in placing objects in an order.

Glückskäfer toys are beautifully crafted following Waldorf and Montessori philosophies that encourage children to discover creative play independently. Timeless toy designs made from natural materials and waterbased colour stains that allow the grain of the wood to show through increasing the feeling of connection to the natural world. Glückskäfer work with midwifes and child educators to help design their toys and have a strong focus on early child development. Materials are carefully chosen to be environmentally friendly and tactile.  We love the beautiful colours and classic styles.
