Waldorf at Home
Maileg Grandma and Grandpa Mice, Grapat's Woodland, and more
Waldorf-inspired toys leave things out on purpose. Here are four products that let the kid do the rest.
Maileg's Grandma and Grandpa Mice arrive in nightclothes in a cigar box that doubles as their bed. Grapat's Woodland has a slit cut down every tube, so walkways lock in at any height and kids work out by trial what a structure will actually hold. Woodpeckers' wood peg people are 40 blank Baltic birch figures in five sizes, from 1-1/8 inch babies up to dads, with nothing painted on them yet. And Lyra's Waldorf Selection pencils are fat unlacquered triangular pencils that help put small fingers into a proper grip.
