I was hesitating to purchase this cuz it seemed closed ended rather than open but my kids have used it as a pond, pool, ice and stage so far. The shape sparks them to think of different ways to use it.
A good variety of pieces and some are painted with glitter. I would say it’s a good intro to Grapat or a good way to have a mix of Grapat items if you don’t want to buy separate full sets. For the amount of Grapat we are getting, the price tag is worth it. For example, I don’t have any of the Grapat Little Things which is RM59 each if purchased on its own, and this set has a special version of Little Things. 3 out of the 24 advent boxes contain only paper or craft materials but all the others are wooden loose parts.
Simple function but limitless possibilities! My little one loves this! I also love how it feels when you touched it and the color is superb!
I love to observe my little ones playing using magnetic tiles (and now we have the geometric in addition). the process that they go through during building and creating things using the tiles is so beautiful. so much emotions during the process :)
This is my second purchase (for modelling beeswax)
At first it was a bit overwhelming for my kids.
Since the beeswaxs are originally quite hard. They need to knead/warm up the beeswax first to make it soft and easy to work with
But over time, they started to love it. They onew the tricks (to soften the wax) And created so many things.
Bonus point is (if compared to clay), once u shaped the wax, it'll harden and can be use in so many play.
Once u're bored, just knead it to soften and change the shape!
You can pretend it’s looking down for food or casually sniffing through the forest floor 🌳🦡
Wobble Board
A versatile board I personally enjoy using too. My girl uses it almost every day; sliding on the couch while watching TV, a bridge to walk across, a tunnel in her city play and even a rocking bed for her dolls. It’s always part of her daily play.
A portable set that’s easy to bring out for building play. The tiny pieces are a bit challenging for my child’s little hands to assemble, but she tried her best and made her first flamingo!
We keep this in our outing bag so she can play whenever we’re outside. Having both sizes has also made it a nice bonding moment at home. The bigger one for me and the mini for her 💕
Surprised this set could be played in many ways. Our favorite is playing them as spinning tops.
Fun colors! Love that they have a textured feel, which is great for children’s sensory play.
The pegs are really nice and lovely. Played a lot as little hooman or magic forest dwarfs. They’re so colorful that it makes play setups look more fun.
The Nin that comes with it is really pretty, adding more variety to our existing Nins. The little lamb melts our hearts the moment we saw it.
We’ve got all families in our collection and we love them all. They’re nice for display when not playing.
Added this set because my child loves ball runs. It also lets us build much bigger setups with our mega pack.
This set draws my girl in straight away after opening the package. She has used the pieces in so many ways; name spelling, cinema seats and surfing boards 🏄 We’re still exploring more loose parts fun ideas!
We bought this on purpose to expand our play collection and it blends in really well with our existing collections.
We already have a few of these from the advent calendar and secretly wished we had more! So we were really happy when they released a full set. They’re already nice as they are, little cookies 🍪
This is quite an interesting set. I’ve seen others play them as flowers, bubbles, underground substance… you name it. My daughter recent play was using it as a little hiding spot/nest for a frightened bunny. So cute!
