Wood Tinker Tray for Sorting
According to Reggio Emilia, order and beauty are fundamental because when the material is organized, it invites and generates moments of quality and open-ended play. This Wood Tinker Tray for Sorting with dividers allows us to offer a variety of materials simultaneously. The compartments contain, contain and limit so the children can sort and classify all those small elements that are part of their environment.

Grapat has grown a lot since its birth in 2015, spreading globally, but it is still – and always will be – a family project. Grapat workshop is located in the Spanish countryside, and being close to nature can make some tones and colours vary. Depending on the humidity or wind, the dye can be impregnated in one way or another in the wood. The finishes are made with waxes and oils of vegetable origin. The oils can initially have a strong aroma but lose it with the days.
Grapat draws inspiration from nature in its true form and then tries to reduce it to the essential, detaching from the unnecessary and the superfluous to offer material that is truly open, ready to transform into whatever the child needs in every playtime.
GRAPAT provides material without instructions, open-ended and autonomous play. The only premise is to let children play slowly, without time limits. Grapat hand crafts 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 that let the wood veins be seen, and vibrant coloured waxes and oils that shine slightly. The products are painted by hand, homemade, surrounded by nature and many children nearby, inspiring the makers daily.
