Grapat Tools

This Grapat Tools play set features 6 wooden tools in a variety of shapes, sizes, and vibrant rainbow colours, designed to enhance sensory play.

Inspired by kitchen utensils like pastry brushes, pounders, whisks, and lemon squeezers, these tools can be anything your child imagines. Perfect for sensory exploration, this set encourages heuristic play and helps with sensory development. Whether used in a sensory tray filled with sand, rice, or lentils, or incorporated into imaginative play in a toy kitchen, these tools will spark creativity in many ways.

A great addition to any collection of open-ended toys, Grapat Tools pair wonderfully with Grapat Pots and natural materials. The water-based paints allow the wood’s natural texture to shine through, and the smooth, tactile surface with graduated rainbow colours invites children to explore freely, all while being safe for toddlers to handle as they wish.

Grapat’s Dear Universe Collection invites children to look outward with wonder and inward with imagination. Inspired by the vastness of space, the collection encourages curiosity about the unknown and a sense of connection to something bigger than ourselves. Through simple, tactile wooden pieces representing planets, stars, and celestial forms, children are free to create their own cosmic stories, systems, and meanings.

The ethos of Dear Universe is rooted in open-ended exploration. There are no rules to follow and no outcomes to reach — only questions to wonder about and worlds to invent. By transforming abstract ideas like time, space, and movement into tangible play, the collection supports imaginative thinking, storytelling, and emotional expression. Made from natural materials and designed to be handled, moved, and reimagined again and again, Dear Universe reflects Grapat’s belief that play is a powerful way for children to explore mystery, creativity, and their place in the world.

About Grapat

Grapat is a family-run toy maker from Catalonia, Spain, creating simple, open-ended wooden play materials that celebrate childhood, imagination, and nature. Founded in 2015, the brand grew from the founders’ experience as parents, observing that children thrive with time, freedom, and thoughtfully chosen materials.

Rooted in a slower, intentional way of life, Grapat designs toys that invite children to explore, invent, and express themselves without instructions or expectations. Wood, warm and alive, is at the heart of every piece, crafted with traditional processes and sustainably sourced European timber, then hand-stained with non-toxic, water-based dyes.

Loved in over 60 countries, Grapat remains personal and hands-on, with local production, fair working conditions, plastic-free packaging, and a philosophy that honours children’s natural creativity and the joy of open-ended play.
