Papoose Toys Four Season Trees Set of 12

Each tree has a top made from wool felt fabric, a soft stitched textile, set on a real wooden trunk. Calling them felt fabric toys reflects that soft, tactile top, while the timber base adds weight and a natural feel. The two materials together give a warm, handmade character to every piece.

The set represents the four seasons with three trees each, using colours that suggest autumn, winter, spring and summer. Because each tree is hand-dyed with non-toxic colourfast dyes, shades vary a little between pieces, and the changing palette is what makes rotating the display through the year enjoyable.

Set out one season's three trees at a time on a nature table or play mat, then add stones, animals or figures to match. As the real seasons change, swap the trees over. This gives a simple, repeating small-world display that follows the child's stories.

Sorting the trees by season and by size supports early classification and large-medium-small comparison. Building scenes encourages imaginative language and storytelling, while the soft felt tops offer gentle sensory input. Rotating seasons also gives a natural prompt for conversations about time and the year.

Within each season you get one large at 26cm, one medium at 21cm and one small at 16cm, for 12 trees in total. The graduated heights let children build layered woodland scenes and make it easy to line the trees up from tallest to shortest.

Yes. A complete year of trees in one box suits families who value natural, open-ended toys, and the handmade wool and wood build fits a Waldorf or nature-based style. It makes a generous birthday or seasonal present for toddlers through to older children who enjoy small worlds.

Wool cleaning instructions apply, so spot clean the felt tops rather than machine washing them, and wipe the wooden trunks with a dry or barely damp cloth. Store the set somewhere dry and out of strong sun so the dyed felt and the natural wood stay in good condition.
