Eating Sheep | Farm Animal Figure | Wooden Toys for Kids

The Ostheimer Eating Sheep is caught in one of those quiet, everyday moments on the farm, head bent right down as if it’s found the best patch of grass in the field. With a gently curved back and simple, flowing outline, the Ostheimer Eating Sheep lets the natural maple wood do the talking – the grain suggests a soft fleece, while a tiny painted eye adds just enough expression for children to decide what she’s thinking about as she grazes.
This is a lovely figure for slow, small-world play where children can explore the rhythm of the day on the farm – the Ostheimer Eating Sheep can graze in the meadow, move into a nativity scene at Christmas, or take its place on a spring nature table alongside lambs and flowers. In true Waldorf-inspired style, the pared-back design leaves the story open: pair the Ostheimer Eating Sheep with a ram, standing sheep and other animals to talk about flocks, seasons and life outdoors.
Expertly hand-crafted from sustainable solid maple wood and finished with non-toxic, water-based colours, the Ostheimer Eating Sheep feels smooth, warm and reassuring in little hands. Handmade in Germany, each figure is slightly unique, making it a beautiful addition to a growing Ostheimer animal collection that can be enjoyed for years.
Whether it's part of a woodland pond, a fairytale lake, or a seasonal display, the Ostheimer Swan adds timeless beauty and calm to every play moment. Handmade in Germany, each swan is one of a kind, designed to be treasured for years to come.
