*Grapat Wood Natural Nins, Rings and Coins

It contains 6 ‘Nins’, 36 rings and 18 coins in natural wood. Includes a cloth bag.

The six different rings allow to completely hide the nin peg doll. The rings make a stack, one by one, and covers the nin completely. I appear, I disappear, I cover myself, I am found again. This is a simple set and allows many possibilities of play, from counting to stacking and knocking over, to sorting shapes to imagination and storytelling play with the nin peg dolls within the Waldorf style of teaching.
The nins don’t have facial expressions, or gender. In this way, it is the child playing who can develop their own language, imagination, stories and is who decides which character they are going to play with.

Recommended age 3+

GRAPAT provides material without instructions, open-ended and autonomous play. Their only premise is to let children play, slowly, without time limits. Grapat hand crafts materials that encourage, invite and stimulate the creation of invented little worlds. Grapat is made following traditional processes, in the old way, with thick soft raw materials, natural dyes which let the wood veins be seen and vibrant coloured waxes and oils that slightly shine. The products are painted by hand, homemade, surrounded by nature and many children nearby that inspire the makers daily.

The wood we use comes from sustainable forests. Grapat uses beech and birch. Wood is the source that inspires us daily. It is robust, soft and hard, it is warm, it sounds good and it smells good.

Care Instructions: If you clean Grapat wood products only use a damp cloth. Do not submerge in water and do not use disinfectant or hot water.
