Product description:

The base plate for the stable or the nativity scene with the star from Ostheimer is reduced to its natural material wood and the typical farm style around the stable or the nativity stable. This is a great way to add farm animals and Co. to the stable to play with, creating a real nativity scene or farm diorama. Of course you can also use the plate individually as a pasture or meadow for your characters, animals, etc.

The farm stable/crib with a wooden base plate is perfect for hours of play and can be wonderfully combined with our farm animals, the tractor and the horse trailer.

Why playing with abstract wooden toys and animals is good for children's development?

Playing with animals and figures acquires its fascination as soon as children can grasp in a coordinated manner and remains in focus until school age, if not longer. The more abstract the wooden animals and figures are, the more a child's imagination is stimulated while playing. This is especially relevant later, when school age has to deal with completely abstract tasks that require imagination and imagination to solve.

At the same time, wooden animals and figures also support your child in telling and playing stories. They can stand on their own as a wooden figure, but are also part of a larger whole, e.g. an animal family or a theme world such as a farm or forest, and thus convey basic connections to children.

You can find great wooden animals that match the stable in our category Farm, wooden animals, tractors & Co..
