Grimm’s Large Complementary Colour Star is a vibrant creative puzzle and building set that inspires both playful exploration and geometric learning. Featuring 18 chunky, hand-painted wooden pieces in complementary colours, this puzzle encourages children to develop an intuitive sense of colour, shape, and form. With each piece measuring 4 cm thick, the set fits perfectly in its wooden frame but also invites open-ended play outside the frame, letting children create towers, patterns, creatures, robots, or imaginative play scenes for dolls and vehicles. Through stacking, arranging, and reconstructing the star, children strengthen fine motor skills, spatial awareness, logical thinking, and geometric understanding. Younger children enjoy the tactile and visual stimulation of the colourful blocks, while older children are challenged to experiment with symmetry, patterns, and creative structures. Crafted in Germany from sustainably sourced alder, lime, maple, and cherry wood, each piece is finished with non-toxic water-based stains and plant-based oils. The non-lacquered surface offers a natural texture that enhances tactile sensory play and helps pieces stay securely stacked. Slight paint transfer may occur during use, which is normal for natural wood and considered part of its charm. This beautifully designed set combines learning, creativity, and sensory delight, making it a lasting favourite for children and adults alike. Find out more in our Grimm’s Toy Guide. Width: 36.5Length: 32.5Height: 5.5 Recommended age: 3+ About Grimm's Grimm's toys are inspired by the principles of Waldorf Steiner and are designed with the intention of helping children discover and develop their own creativity through simplicity of shapes, leaving plenty of room for independent play and imagination. Inspired by the educational philosophies of Rudolf Steiner, Grimm's puzzles, building sets, and toys are about the rainbow, happy colors, creativity, and the imagination. There are no instructions, and you can do no wrong with a Grimm's toy. Just play, learn, and enjoy. Please note: as Grimm's uses non-lacquered wood, some paint transfer can occur during play. This is considered normal. Non-lacquered wood has a lovely texture - the rough texture of the stained wood is not only an important tactile sensory experience for children, but those rough surfaces makes it possible to build in many different ways, because the parts do not slide down so easily as the wood surface is still natural and not covered with a layer of bright enamel; however if you are concerned about paint transfer we suggest you purchase another item that is lacquered to be on the safe side.
