The beautiful Grapat Wooden Perpetual Calendar allows children to touch the year and understand the passage of time and our place within it. It is also a wonderful way to teach and celebrate the cycle of the seasons, collecting natural materials from outdoors and combining them with the calendar as the seasons change.
Each calendar contains 12 Nin peg dolls in 12 colours representing the months of the year based on Waldorf educational principles, 1 bowl, two natural wood numbered cubes to display the current date and a platform distributed in 4 sections that determine the seasons, stamped with the months of the year.
It is a set that will be loved and enjoyed by the whole family and passed on to future generations keeping traditions alive.

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.
