Grapat Dear Universe Wooden Space Play Set
Discover the wonders of outer space with the Grapat Dear Universe wooden play set. This set includes seven hand-painted planets that can represent the days of the week and a selection of pearly white moons and craggy asteroids to create your own solar system.
The Grapat Dear Universe will inspire open-ended imaginative play, learning about celestial bodies and helping young children visualise the planets in the night skies. This set can also be combined with the Grapat 7 Moons weekday calendar - can you match the days of the week with their planet? This space play set includes 40 individual pieces including planets, moons and asteroids or stars. Each piece is tactile and beautifully hand-painted in soft colours and incredible detail and presented in a decorated cardboard box for storage.
This set can be combined with other Grapat toys and would make a fantastic starting point for a Grapat collection. These timeless toys will appeal to generations of children who instinctively know how to play. The water-based paints used let the wood grain shine through, making them wonderfully tactile and appealing to the touch.
Suitable for 36+ months. We recommend this toy for 36 months +. Grapat toys are handmade using natural wood and water-based stains. Colours and wood grains vary as does life itself. Over time wood can wear with play.
Size: From 12mm to 45mm diameter
Sensory play: fine motor skills, tripod grip, cognition, colour
Schematic play: This toy will appeal to children demonstrating the positioning schema.

Customer Reviews
My space mad daughter loves this set. It has inspired many hours of imaginative play. The set itself is just stunning, the craftsmanship as usual is lovely. I love that they can create their own universe.
We love this set for adding to space play. These planets cannot be linked to the actual solar system but that doesn’t bother my 5 year old, he just gives them other names.
We’ve used them to add to flatlays where otherwise it would be a clear night and the white ‘balls’ are also very useful for marble runs
This set is simply beautiful. The quality of the pieces is outstanding, it is to wonderfully tactile to hold, and the pieces can be used in so many ways! We have created galaxies, compared sizes, counted and sorted, played rolling/marble type games. Such a versatile set, and so pleasing just to look at even when not in use!
I love this set. The pieces are beautiful, tactile and so much fun to play with. With my son we talk about the stars and the plants and fly our rocket around them.
This is one of those toys that I am going to keep forever!
