Grimm’s Forest Rainbow 12 Pieces

The set has 12 small wooden cones in three sizes and twelve harmonising colours. The cones stand roughly 7, 9 and 11 cm tall with base diameters of 3, 3.5 and 4 cm. Their colours match Grimm's large rainbow, so they can extend a rainbow set or be played with on their own.

The cones are open ended loose parts, so play is led by the child. They often stand in as trees for small world scenes and landscapes, but they also work for sorting by colour or size, counting, and adding creative detail to larger building sets. Stacking and balancing them adds a gentle physical challenge.

Grimm's gives an age guide of 2 years and over. Toddlers and preschoolers enjoy sorting the cones by colour and size and building them into simple scenes, which supports colour recognition and early counting. As the pieces are small, keep them away from babies who still put toys in their mouths.

The cones are made from maple wood and finished with a non-toxic water based colour stain, which lets the wood grain show through the colour. Because they are made from natural timber and coloured by hand, small differences between pieces are normal and are part of their handmade character rather than faults.

Yes. The colours are matched to Grimm's large rainbow and the cones combine with their building and stacking blocks, so you can fold them into constructions you already own. This makes them a useful way to add detail and variety to an existing collection. See more in our /collections/grimms-building-rainbow-worlds range.

Very much so. There is no set way to use them, which lets children invent their own uses, from forests and mountains to counting games and colour sorting. This kind of open structure encourages imagination and problem solving, and keeps the set useful across several ages as a child's play develops.
