Ostheimer Wooden Figures - Sparrow

Little brown sparrows are a common sight in the garden and can now come into the playroom. This two-tone Ostheimer sparrow is a sweet little bird with a tan breast and chocolate brown wings. Children will enjoy making this wooden bird sing, dart from tree to tree and hunt for tasty worms. Team up with other Ostheimer birds and give them an Ostheimer bird tree to sit in together, or flit about a toy farm or with woodland animals. This Waldorf bird has been handmade in Germany from solid, sustainable hardwood and stained with eco water-based colour. This little bird is smooth, warm and tactile - perfect for children's hands and popular with ornithologists too.

• Suitable for children over 3 years.  
• Made from sustainable hard wood, painted with non-toxic water based paint and finished with organic oil.  
• Height: 3.5cm

Ostheimer have been making Waldorf wooden figures for generations with a desire to craft toys that inspire children to play freely and explore the world with all their senses.  Each Ostheimer wooden figure is made in the traditional way by hand at every stage, sawn, sanded, painted and oiled.  With these figures children can create imaginary worlds re-enacting scenes from their own experiences or conjuring fanciful worlds filled with exotic creatures and tales of wonder.  All Ostheimer toys are made from local sustainable hardwood, painted with safe transparent paint and finished in organic oil to ensure a connection with nature and respect for the environment.  Ostheimer are considered the quintessential maker of Waldorf wooden figures, their range is extensive so there is something for everyone.
