    Grapat Loose Parts 6 Large Natural Wooden Balls

    This Grapat Loose Parts set includes 6 large natural wooden balls finished in a natural oil (please note - dish is not included).

    Suitable from birth, these smooth and tactile wooden ball loose parts are a perfect addition to a baby's treasure basket for discovery through heuristic play. Young babies can touch and feel the shape and observe how the balls react on different surfaces and when knocked together. These 6 simple large wooden balls allow for all kinds of creative play and ideas. This supplementary set of loose parts compliment the Grapat play sets or can be used alone, and work brilliantly alongside other building sets. Grapat balls are used by children in a multitude of ways – there is no right or wrong way to play! Sort, organise, stack, align, post or transport, these loose parts will instigate learning through play at all stages of your child’s development. Team up with additional loose parts play sets or Grapat Nins at Babipur.

    These wooden play balls are a must have learning resource for early years education, and loved by Montessori and Waldorf settings for counting, building and pattern recognition. Children will love exploring the trajectory scema through ball runs and mazes using wooden balls. Loose parts help children develop critical thinking and problem solving through creative and imaginative play.

    Recommended for 0+ months. Balls measure approx 4.5cm diameter. Grapat toys are hand made using natural wood and water based stain. Colours and wood grains vary as does life itself. Over time wood can wear with play.

    Sensory play:

    • Touch: clutching and grasping, textures, fine motor skills, tripod grip
    • Visual: pattern recognition

    Schematic play: This toy will appeal to children demonstrating the positioning, trajectory and rotational schema.

    Please note: due to distribution restrictions we cannot send Grapat toys to addresses outside of the UK and EU.

    Grapat toys are designed to embolden the natural desire to play within every child. Simplistic toys made from natural materials allow children to play freely without rules or structure, playing discovering and learning. Sure to be a favourite with Montessori toy lovers, counting, sorting and open ended play galore. Grapat toys are famed for the “Nins”, a beautiful range of traditional Waldorf toy peg dolls available in a plethora of colours and designs that give them real character. Grapat toys exude the natural beauty of the earth made using locally sourced sustainable wood and finished with water based colour stain that is safe for children and will not chip away. Nurture your child’s instincts to play and create their own imaginary worlds with Grapat.

Delighted with these. So far they have been used for a ball run, as dinosaur eggs and in a treasure basket for the baby. The grain is beautiful too.

Great set

Lovely feel and a nice weight to them. Bought for my youngests first birthday. Glide nicely down our egg run. I was a little disappointed they came in a plastic bag but would definitely buy again.

Not to be overlooked!

Starting off with a rainbow set we have now added a natural set. These balls have opened up far more play options than I ever expected or anticipated. They are loved by all the family (cats included!!)... they are absolutely brilliant for playing on the wobbel 360 and have become a part of our daily play. The natural ones have beautiful grain too.
