• GRAPAT provides material without instructions, open-ended and autonomous play. Their only premise is to let children play slowly, without time limits. Grapat handcrafts materials that encourage, invite and stimulate the creation of invented little worlds. Grapat is made following traditional processes, in the old way, with thick soft raw materials, natural dyes which let the wood veins be seen and vibrant coloured waxes and oils that slightly shine. The products are hand-painted and handmade, surrounded by nature, with many children nearby who inspire the makers daily.

• Grapat is a family-owned Spanish toy company founded in 2015 by Casiana and Jordi in the Pyrenean mountains of Catalonia. Famous for handcrafted, open-ended wooden toys, the brand operates on the philosophy that provides children with unstructured materials—free from instructions or batteries—to encourage slow, imaginative play.
