Grimm's Seven Friends in Bowls

One of our favorite items for a child's first Grimm's set! The very youngest enjoy taking the seven friends out of their wooden cups, turning the cups over, stacking them on top of each other and putting the little figures back in the cups ... again and again. This is exactly where the magic of play lies: discovering abilities and skills and doing things over and over until they become second nature. Later, this set can be used for color matching and learning primary colors. Even more, the cups can be used for playing shop or serving little cups of tea.

Through their different colors and different types of wood, the Seven Friends reflect our wonderful diverse world as well as celebrating everyone’s uniqueness. Each one of these little hand-painted wooden figures has a different look and individual wood grain. These happy little wooden figures, made from different types of wood from trees indigenous to central Europe, are gender neutral. With no specific facial expression, they can be either sad or happy. With their simple appearance they spur on the child’s imagination instead of restricting it by offering too much detail.

In addition to sorting and color matching, the Seven Friends in Cups can also be used as a weekly calendar: Each figure is assigned a day of the week. For each passing day, a figure is placed on his/her cup until a week has passed and all 7 friends jump back into their cups, so that a new week can begin.

The Seven Friends are a wonderful addition to the Six-Piece Rainbow -- recommended for children from 1 year of age due to the suitable number of parts and colors, an ideal introduction to the fantastic world of rainbows and free play.

Tip: The Seven Friends also fit perfectly in the Grimm's Bus, which can carry 3 passengers
