Grapat Ooh-Lala!

Ooh-Lala! This Grapat play set includes three different wooden characters to inspire imaginative play.

The Grapat Ooh-Lala! Set is a delightful family of three wooden figures, hand painted in bold designs in shades of purple, orange and green. Just the right size for little hands to grasp, smooth and tactile, these characters will delight children who invent characters for their new friends. Each is a different shape inspired by nature – one is pear shaped, another cone shape, and the last like a little round turnip! Bring on the fun with these little wooden peg dolls, inspired by the abstract artist movement. 

These open-ended wooden figures will appeal to the whole family, from toddlers starting to discover the wonderful world of storytelling, to older children whose imagination is ever expanding. The smooth wood creates a wonderful sensory toy, harking back to the wonderful world of nature from which it has been crafted and inspired. Young children will love how tactile the wooden peg doll feel in their hand. Each Grapat character has been handmade and stained with water-based rainbow colour dyes, allowing the beauty of the natural wood grain to shine through.

Part of the Grapat Wild Wild collection, the Grapat Ooh-Lala set is a wonderful and imaginative representation of the natural characters children will encounter when they are allowed to be truly wild. Grapat believes childhood should be filled with wild experiences, untamed adventures, and a little healthy risk taking – and we would have to agree.

Suitable for 18+ months. These Grapat peg dolls measure 37-65mm in length. Grapat toys are hand made using natural wood and water based stain. Colours and wood grains vary as does life itself. Over time wood can wear with play.
