Glückskäfer Rainbow Building Set

This Gluckskafer Rainbow Building set is a stunning set of wooden slats for building with beautiful rainbow shades. Use these flat blocks for creating stacking towers, houses and magical worlds, or create flat mosaics with these 32 colourful wooden slats which come in 5 different sizes. Children will enjoy using the wooden building boards to make a tall tower before removing the pieces one at a time, with the challenge being to take it apart without it collapsing. Tower building is a fun game for adults and children alike and assembling the flat tiles into pretty patterns and mosaic images can be therapeutic too.

These solid wood blocks come in a wooden beech and beech ply storage box measuring 19cm x 27cm x 2.5cm. The ‘colourful shapes’ range by Glückskäfer are painted with water-based colours and left unlacquered to bring out the original characteristics of the wood to ensure that the grain shows through. The surface of the blocks and pieces feel a little rough making them less slippery and easier to stack. This also ensures a sensory rich experience for the child. Glückskäfer toys are beautifully crafted following Waldorf and Montessori philosophies that encourage children to discover creative play independently.

Slats measure measures 1cm x 4cm x 20/16/12/8/4cm.

Suitable from age 2+ Sensory toy: grasping, building, fine motor skills

Schematic play: positioning

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.
