This is a great introduction to knitting crafts for kids, and its quick and simple to learn how to use – children will be producing meters of knitting in no time!

Lovely craft for younger ones

My four year old boy has been desperate to knit/sew from watching me, and this knitting fork has been an instant hit with him. He loves creating long strings, which seem to be used endlessly in his play (they're snakes, worms, necklaces, used to hang things up, wound round tree trunks etc). Some patience was required getting the hang of it; I made up a little story about how the strings hop over each other to help him remember the right sequence of actions, but once they get the hang of it muscle memory kicks in pretty quickly. Great for developing dexterity and strengthening hand muscles in preparation for writing as well, in a way that's a bit different.

'Colourful Shapes'

'Colourful Shapes'

The ‘colourful shapes’ range by Glückskäfer are painted with water based colours and left unlacquered to bring out the original characteristics of the wood to ensure that the grain shows through. The surface of the blocks and pieces feel a little rough making them less slippery and easier to stack. This also ensures a sensory rich experience for the child. Glückskäfer toys are beautifully crafted following Waldorf and Montessori philosophies that encourage children to discover creative play independently.
