    Grimm's Threading Game - Large Buttons

    This set of 24 wooden rainbow buttons, twelve small and twelve large, can be played with in multiple ways. Use them in threading games on the strings provided or use as counters for learning maths, pretend money when playing shop, soup ingredients in a play kitchen, or combine with wooden building blocks, bobbins, peg people and figures to create beautiful rainbow worlds. This is a fun educational toy and parents, teachers and Montessori educators will appreciate the myriad of ways it can be utilised. The colours match up with a huge range of rainbow items in the Grimm's Toys range, including the famous 12-piece rainbow, making this a great set for combining with other toys for colour sorting games. Play with these wooden buttons alongside Grimm's wooden balls, rainbows, building blocks, bowls and a whole lot more for a huge range of free-play possibilities.

    This wooden toy has been ethically made from sustainable, solid maple and wood. The wood has coloured with non-toxic, water-based colour stain which allows the grain of the wood to shine through.

    The small buttons are 4.5cm across and the large buttons are 6cm across.

    Suitable from age 3. Not suitable for children under 3 due to small parts.

    Schematic play: This toy will appeal to children demonstrating the positioning schema - balancing, sorting and stacking toys and objects in particular order or place.

    Sensory toy: hand-eye co-ordination, fine motor skills.

    Please note: due to distribution restrictions we cannot send Grimm's toys to addresses outside of the UK and Ireland.

    Featuring toys to shake, build or pull along, Babi Pur’s range of Grimm’s toys has something for every child to fall in love with. The quality of these toys is superb and their appeal is timeless – we’re sure that they will be treasured not only by your children but by your grandchildren too.

    Grimm’s educational wooden toys are made in Europe from alder, lime, beech and maple, all sourced from sustainably managed European forests. They are made in handpicked workshops across Europe and coated with natural colours and oils by the Grimm’s team in Germany. All of the paints and lacquer used to finish your lovingly made Grimm’s toy are harmless and enhance the natural beauty of the wood, allowing the grain to shine through.

I purchased these ready for my daughters 3rd birthday and wow they haven't disappointed. They are alot bigger and chunkier thank expected. They are beautiful and bright. I'm sure my little one will enjoy threading and even stacking these.

Beautiful!

Lovely quality and good size for my little one to practice threading, could also be used for sorting, stacking, coins etc.
Would recommend!

Multi-use

So much can be done with these buttons, yes they’re great for teaching fine motor skills by threading but they’re also money, building blocks, necklaces, pig nose… etc etc! We’ve used them for maths during lockdown as well. Now my second kid loves to colour sort with them as the colours match all of the other Grimms rainbowy bits.

Massively underrated!

I never see people posting about these, but my daughters loves round things (mostly coins) and threading. These are beautifully tactile, and I’ve enjoyed stacking them into a very wobbly tower!

A great toy for playing and developing skills

These buttons are lovely, there are two sizes, some bigger ones and some smaller ones, and it also comes with two threading laces, which are basically like shoe laces, with the sealed ends.
They are a variety of colours and have good sized holes to thread the laces through. One other review mentions getting a lacing hook to go with it, but please note that the description does say that the grimms one isn't suitable as it's too thick. I will try and fine one that does fir as my small one doesn't quite yet have the dexterity to thread the lace through by themselves. They love opening the cardboard pot the buttons come in to see what's inside too.

Grimm's Toys

Featuring toys to shake, build or pull along, Babi Pur’s range of Grimm’s Waldorf-inspired toys has something for every child to fall in love with. The quality of these toys is superb and their appeal is timeless – we’re sure that they will be treasured not only by your children but by your grandchildren too. Grimm’s Toys are inspired by the Waldorf Steiner education movement which advocates learning through thoughtful, creative play at an unhurried pace. Toys play an important part of the learning experience and Waldorf toys are made with natural materials, beautiful and simplistic – the lack of details allow children to fill in the blanks with their imaginations. They can be used in multiple ways in creative play scenarios, rather than being prescriptive. Waldorf toys are wonderfully tactile and call on children to play with them.
