The magical Northern woodland forest landscape is conjured in many picture books and fables for children. These archetypal animals easily become a part of their imaginary story worlds. Gradually the forest can grow piece by piece, supplemented with people, with Trees and other additions.

Ostheimer have been handcrafting the finest natural wooden toys in Germany for more than 70 years. Inspired by the Waldorf educational principles of Rudolf Steiner, each figure is individually carved with love and care using Ostheimer’s signature soft shapes and gentle colours, bringing warmth and beauty into children’s imaginary play and story-telling.
Thoughtfully designed to fit into a child’s hands, the handcrafted nature of these heirloom toys gives each piece its own special charm and character. Made from sustainable European timber, the natural characteristics of the wood are enhanced by the use of non-toxic water colours and organics.
All Ostheimer toys are eco-friendly, ethically made, and meet or exceed strict EU safety testing standards.
