Grapat mandalas are small parts which can be applied stand alone in loose parts play or as elements in addition to other small world play toys or kits for children aged 3 years and up. Mandalas invite children to create, and as a popular form of meditation, they are also a great way to increase mindfulness, improve concentration and refine motor skills.

They can also be used to enrich symbolic play, or to practice counting and sorting. These delightful small wooden toys also perfectly serve in role-playing as pretend food for cooking, in a market stall or displayed on Waldorf seasonal and nature tables with objects found on nature walks.

Tactile and brightly coloured, the snowflakes measure approximately 4cm each and are crafted entirely from wood, and painted by hand. Each item is smooth and pleasant to touch and finished with natural bees wax.
