These beautifully crafted little containers are the perfect Loose Parts, which can then be colour sorted, counted or used in imaginary and home corner play.

For children over 3 years these mates can be used in conjunction with a number of other small Grapat loose parts, for example: natural cones, natural spheres and Baby Nins.
Joguines Grapat is a small, family-run workshop producing natural wooden toys near the base of the Pyrenees mountains in Catalonia, Spain. Casiana and Jordi (the founders of Grapat) drawing on ideas from Waldorf and Montessori pedagogies, and the natural world around them, believe that play is a sacred moment, that simply made toys without instruction encourage children to explore and discover each in their own unique way. Made with love using mostly beech and birch wood sourced locally from sustainable forests, all Grapat Toys are finished with water-based, non-toxic dyes and vegetable oils, and come beautifully presented in sustainable eco-friendly packaging.
