Full description

by Grimm's, Spiel and Holz Design

This gorgeous Ammonite Snail Building Set by Grimm's, Speil and Holz is hand crafted in Europe using brightly coloured, unpolished alderwood. The texture and colours will stimulate the senses of the very young, who can use the chunky pieces as building bricks, while older children will be challenged by re-constructing the puzzle, and can explore their creativity by using the pieces outside of the frame.

These gorgeous toys are made using alder, lime, maple and cherry wood. Wood is natural, regenerative and stimulates the senses. It has texture, sounds different and smells good. Bacteria cannot reproduce on wood. This all is not true for plastic or metal. All dyes used are water based and are non toxic, as is the natural oil used.

Please note: as Grimm's uses non-lacquered wood, some paint transfer can occur during play. This is considered normal. Non-lacquered wood has a lovely texture - the rough texture of the stained wood is not only an important tactile sensory experience for children, but those rough surfaces makes it possible to build in many different ways, because the parts do not slide down so easily as the wood surface is still natural and not covered with a layer of bright enamel; however if you are concerned about paint transfer we suggest you purchase another item that is lacquered to be on the safe side.
