Grapat Object Permanence Box
The Grapat Object Permanence Box is a lidded wooden box with a hole and slit in the lid for posting objects, a great developmental toy for babies and toddlers.
The Grapat object permanence box is a classic Montessori toy that supports the development of object permanence - now you see it, now you don't! Object permanence is a crucial stage in baby development, discovering that just because we can't see an object anymore doesn't mean that it has disappeared, making baby games such as peekaboo popular for early learning. The slot in the lid is perfect for posting Grapat rings or coins, and the circular hole is big enough to post a nin. Take the lid off this baby's cause-and-effect posting toy, tip out the contents and refill all over again!
This object permanence box is a great learning toy for holding treasures and learning about sizes, colour sorting and developing fine motor skills. Made from solid hardwood, this permanence box is made from sustainably sourced European hardwood with a high quality ply lid and base, solidly made with smooth rounded corners and edges and a natural finish. Posting toys are a favourite early learning toy that can be used with a wide range of objects, including Grapat mandala pieces and loose parts to exploring with natural finds.
Suitable for 0+ years. We recommend this toy for 6 months + or when baby can sit unaided. Grapat toys are handmade using natural wood and water based stain. Colours and wood grains vary as does life itself. Over time wood can wear with play.
Size: 16.2 x 12.5 x 8.4cm
Sensory play:
Touch - clutching and grasping, fine motor skills, tripod grip
Visual - object permanence, cause and effect, cognition
Schematic play: This toy will appeal to children demonstrating the positioning schema.

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.

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.

This was purchased for my daughter's first birthday as she is very much in her 'putting things in bags/boxes and taking them out again' era. It is a little smaller than I expected but actually I think the size is perfect for her age. She enjoys posting her grapat nins and coins into it, and explores what else she can/cannot post in. My almost 5 year old also enjoys borrowing the box to involve her role play games, it is a perfect bed for many of her holztiger and lanka kade animals.
I bought this along with nins, rings & coins. My twins love playing with it, they like to rummage around in the box like it’s full of treasure, post things then shout TA DAHH when they take off the lid. It looks and is so simple but there’s so many ways to play and uses for the box. We’ve also used it with playsilks. My eldest uses it for maths puzzles too!
One of my first Grapat purchases - we also bought the Grapat Winter Nins. Both my boys (4 and 1) play with this box whether it’s using the Winter Nins or other items to check for size or collecting things.
It's a beautifully made box, perfect for my little to practice posting and finding her little coins and toys with. It also has so much longevity as will be a lovely storage box, play house toy, bits box for years to come. Grapat never seems to disappoint.
It was a great addition to play when my little was small, it still gets lots of love today! It's really well made too
