A little one kneeling on the floor picks up the smallest of the Nest Bowls and tucks it inside the next size up, then the next, until all four sit inside one another in a neat little tower. Grapat's Nest Bowls come as 6 sets of 4 wooden nesting bowls painted in a gradient of rainbow colours, 24 pieces in total across 6 gradient colours. Each set of four fits inside itself in size order, the shade growing lighter as the bowls get smaller.
Children sort the bowls by colour, group them by size, or line up all 24 to compare shades side by side. This works well for colour matching, grouping and as a mathematical aid, and it lends itself just as easily to sensory play or a spot in the play kitchen, where the bowls double as pretend serving dishes. A child might stack them into towers, hide small treasures underneath, or use the largest bowl as a base for building upward. The bowls are made from beech that is PEFC certified, and the set won a Spiel Gut award.
Because there are six matching sets, more than one child can sort and stack at the same time, each working with their own gradient of colours or combining sets into a longer sequence.

The Grapat Story: Catalonia based Joguines Grapat was founded by husband and wife team Casiana & Jordi Grapat who were inspired by watching their young daughter play freely with very few, simple toys that she had at her disposal. They realised that when children are given freedom to imagine, they will enter a world of their own creation. Inspired by this experience with their daughter, they started to create wooden toys such as the Nins® (Catalan for 'children'), a beautiful range of traditional Waldorf toy peg dolls, that allow children to play freely without rules or structure, unhindered by pre-determined ideas or games.
Warning: SMALL PARTS - CHOKING HAZARD. Not suitable for children under 3 years. Keep this information for future reference.
