The Grapat 12 Mates is a set of 12 handcrafted rainbow cups, designed to nurture a child's development through open-ended play. These are great for children who love to sort, stack, hide, find and put things away, fostering their creativity and imagination.
Not only do the cups encourage imaginative play, they also help develop mathematical thinking skills such as grouping, matching, and organising. Plus the Grapat Nins peg dolls fit perfectly inside the cups and you can combine them with other sets and blocks to add a new dimension to building and stacking activities.
Handcrafted from high-quality, sustainable wood, they are finished with non-toxic, water-based dyes in a rainbow of 12 vibrant hues and are a safe and eco-friendly choice for little ones.

Grapat is a Spanish family run business created by Casiana and Jordi after observing and being inspired by their first child's play. Grapat means “a handful” in Catalan, the native language of their land, and this is exactly where the simple idea behind their humble project came from: to carry a handful of loose pieces with the utmost care in their hands and offer them with the same love to the hands of children.
Grapat’s motto is “be free, play open!” They offer handcrafted toys made for life, without instructions nor limits. Slow crafted respecting tradition and nature, wood is their element. It is warm, soft but robust and in the hand the soft forms inspire, and the textures soothe. The “imperfectness” of the wood makes each piece unique – just like humans! All the wood they use comes from sustainable forests and all their packaging is 100% plastic free.
