Raduga Grez Stacking Arches Earth

For the Raduga Grez Stacking Arches Earth, they blended the colors of tree bark, hazelnut, earth, moss, stone, and sand, resulting in these new earthen arches. Perfect for those seeking peace, meditative play, and a break from nature.

A meditative toy for focused, useful, and developmental play. Immediately after birth, a child enters a world teeming with visual information. It's so overwhelming that even an adult nervous system sometimes can't handle it. Everything is sparkling and shimmering, and there are so many unnatural, aggressive, and oversaturated colors around. These tranquil stacked arches are an island of peace and focus amidst this multi-colored ocean.

• Touch each color of the toy and name objects of the same color around you. Remember what has the same color in nature.
• Mix the stackers and touch with your eyes closed and try to guess their size from 1 to 7.
• Play shadow theater. Experiment with the distance and position of the arc stacker from the light source or a lamp. Observe how it can change the shape of the shadow. Build different structures and study their shadows.
• Make a pair of binoculars.
• Talk about optical illusions, perspective and sense of space.
• Building bridges over the textile river.
• Build a tunnel for a toy train or a car garage.
• Sketch the shadow of the toy on paper.

Open-Ended Play enables holistic learning: children have the opportunity to explore the properties of materials: how something feels, smells, and moves. It allows children to focus on creating from intrinsic motivation and inspiration. Playing without rules! Children follow their imaginations to let the game unfold in all directions. That's the essence of Open-Ended Play!

This beautiful wooden open-ended play toy is handmade and sustainably produced.

Raduga Grez sources its own wood from responsible companies that ensure that the trees cut down are replanted.

The dyes used are non-toxic and water-based. By avoiding acrylic paint, the wood's characteristic properties are preserved. The toys are inspired by the world around us: nature in all its facets.

Because Raduga Grez uses natural products, the colors in the picture may vary slightly from the product you receive. Tree-specific stains or stripes in the wood are possible. This makes each piece unique.
