Little Hippopotamus by Ostheimer is a wonderful addition to your child's wild animal collection and immerses us all in the wild animal world, brimming with playtime fun and imagination. This timeless wooden toy is inspired by Waldorf education, which favors high-quality natural materials and well-organized toys to let creativity and imagination run free.
Each figurine is handcrafted in Germany using wood from sustainable domestic forestry . Every wooden animal from the Ostheimer collection is a unique piece made with great love and the necessary care. The water-based colors are slightly transparent to highlight the wood grain; the play figures are not finished with varnish to keep the beauty of the wood visible. The unlacquered figurines are oiled with vegetable oil from organic farming.
At Ostheimer, they make toys that stimulate children's imagination and nurture their creativity. Naturally, we at In den Olifant are big fans of that! The passion with which Ostheimer handcrafts open-ended toys has been a beacon of craftsmanship for over eighty years. Combine the baby hippopotamus with the large hippopotamuses and the other Ostheimer play figures to create an imaginative play world for your little ones.
