Bowls and Balls by Grapat

🌈 A Rainbow Invitation to Sort, Match & Imagine

The Grapat Bowls and Balls Set is a vibrant and open-ended resource designed to support early mathematical thinking, colour recognition, and imaginative play. With 12 wooden bowls and 6 matching balls in rainbow colours, this set encourages children to sort, match, fill, and empty, developing skills like fine motor coordination, spatial awareness, and logical thinking.

Children will love using the bowls as lids for the balls, turning this into a game of peekaboo or discovery—an activity that supports early memory development and playful interaction. The tactile and visual beauty of the smooth, hand-painted wooden pieces makes them irresistible to touch and explore.

Housed in a GOTS-certified textile bag, this set is easy to store and perfect for travel or on-the-go play. As with all Grapat toys, the open-ended design invites children to invent their own games, stories, and worlds—turning simple shapes into endless possibilities.

Set includes: 12 bowls, 6 balls, and cloth storage bag
Material: Sustainably sourced wood, non-toxic stains
Recommended Age: 18+ months

🌿 About Grapat – Open-Ended Play Rooted in Nature and Simplicity

Grapat is a small, family-run business based in Catalonia, Spain, dedicated to creating beautiful, handcrafted wooden toys that invite children into a world of open-ended play, imagination, and discovery. Inspired by the rhythms of nature and the magic of childhood, Grapat’s toys are intentionally simple—designed without rules or instructions—so that children can lead their own play.

Each piece is made from sustainably sourced wood and hand-finished with natural, non-toxic dyes and vegetable-based oils, allowing the wood’s grain and texture to remain visible and touchable. From the beloved Nins® peg people to intricate Mandala loose parts, every Grapat item is unique, tactile, and thoughtfully made to encourage free expression, creativity, and mindful play.

Grapat believes in slow, intentional play without time limits—play that nurtures connection, curiosity, and a deep respect for nature and materials. Their toys are beloved in Waldorf and Montessori communities and treasured by families around the world who value quality, sustainability, and the wonder of childhood.

With Grapat, the possibilities are endless—and always led by the child.
