Building boards - construction, building and balancing. Grimm's building boards are the perfect complement to the 12 piece arcs, tunnels and semicircles (sold separately). So many wonderful balancing games and new construction projects can be created, leading to even more open ended play. One set of building boards includes 11 pcs measuring 7cm wide by 10-37cm long. Boards measure 0.8cm thick. Ages 12 mo+ Made by Grimm's Spiel und Holz in Germany, each piece is hand finished and dyed with water-based dyes meeting European safety standards. The dyes are used in order to preserve the natural feel and smell of the wood which makes for a more sensory experience. The natural wood also maintains the texture of the arcs and gives them some grip when they’re being stacked. Grimm's produces natural and sustainable wooden toys. As a result, items always have unique markings since wood grain changes structures and colours. This serves as proof of its natural origins. The unique variations are proof of the toy’s quality and not a defect. Children should be advised and prompted to use caution with their special toys. However, if something breaks, repair the damage with wood glue.
