Ammonite from Grimm's is a shape puzzle and building block set in one.
It will be played with throughout childhood because it can be discovered and rediscovered over and over again. The first discovery is the different shapes: What does it feel like? When children know their colours, the blocks will be sorted by colour. Later, children will stack and build with the blocks. Fine motor skills, eye-hand coordination, differentiation, and spatial thinking skills are developed.
Made with lime wood, non-toxic water-based color stain/non-toxic plant-based oil finish. Size: Size: L=33cm, single blocks of 4cm thickness.
Recommendation age: 4+ (Please be mindful that this set includes small parts).
