The Grimm's Pastel Rainbow Friends are a set of handcrafted Waldorf style wooden figures that celebrate diversity and individuality. Made from various types of wood indigenous to central Europe, each of these charming, hand-painted figures features a unique look. From their pastel hues, different wood types, to their individual wood grain, they reflect the diverse world in which we live, encouraging children to appreciate and celebrate everyone's uniqueness. Gender neutral and with no facial features, this allows children to decide the character and story for themselves, encouraging creativity and storytelling, making them a wonderful choice for open-ended play.
 
The twelve Pastel Rainbow Friends combine wonderfullywith the Grimm's Large Pastel Rainbow, not just for colour sorting and matching but also for imaginative play - they love to live in a magical rainbow world!    
 
The outstanding and typical feature of all Grimms toys is the rough yet velvety surface, which is the result of using colour glazes and plant oils that penetrate the wood fibres and leave a lively surface. Especially with building elements, this contributes to greater play value, since the individual wooden pieces do not slip off so easily. All the colour glazes and oils used are harmless, enhancing the natural beauty of the wood, allowing the various markings and grains to show through making each piece unique. 
 
Guided by Waldorf education and other alternative pedagogical approaches, such as Montessori, Grimms design their toys to keep the playing possibilities as open as possible, so that creativity is not restricted, and can develop in new directions. The possible combinations of the individual items are limitless and open up a broad field of infinite playing possibilities. As children's development progresses, they find new ways to play and interact with Grimms wooden toys, making them a perfect companion throughout their childhood.
