From age three. Toddlers stack and nest; older children use the arches across every kind of build.

Why it lasts.

A large, classic rainbow cut from a single piece of wood.

Cut from one piece

The arches fit back together because they were cut from the same block of lime wood.

Big and stable

Half a yard across, so the pieces make real bridges, tunnels and walls.

Endless shapes

Rainbow, cradle, see-saw, fence, and whatever a child imagines next.

For the parent

Bauspiel Bauspiel is Uwe Deckelmann and his daughter Hanna. 'Bauspiel' means 'building game' in German, and the line grows out of Friedrich Fröbel's kindergarten tradition of simple forms that ask nothing and allow everything. The wood is native European lime, alder and beech, with maple and cherry from sustainable cultivation, colored and oiled so the grain stays visible and the soul of the wood remains perceptible. The acrylic and gems come from Taiwan or China. Everything is quality-checked and shipped from Augsburg, Germany.
