Grimm's Threading Needle and Cord

The Grimm's Threading Needle and Cord is the perfect accessory for developing early fine motor skills, hand–eye coordination, and concentration. Designed for use with Grimm’s Thread Game (10315), Thread Game Small Bobbins (10316), or the discs of stacking towers, this wooden needle encourages children to explore threading, patterning, and creative play in a safe, tactile way.

Crafted from solid, sustainable beechwood and finished with non-toxic plant-based oil, the needle and cord are durable, smooth, and safe for young hands. The needle measures 8cm in length with a diameter of 8mm, and the cord is 80cm long — ideal for threading exercises that refine dexterity and support hand strength.

This Waldorf-inspired toy encourages independent, open-ended play. There are no instructions, no “right” or “wrong” way to use it — children can experiment freely, thread beads, bobbins, or discs, and create patterns or games that inspire creativity and imagination. The natural wood texture and simple design enhance sensory exploration while keeping the focus on learning through play.

Lovingly handcrafted in Germany by Grimm's Spiel & Holz, this threading needle embodies the principles of sustainable, thoughtful toy design. It makes a wonderful addition to any threading set or stacking tower activity, supporting hours of educational, hands-on play.
