The Facebook community you have been yearning for deep in your soul! I actually love Facebook (more than Instagram). I’ve also LOVED “meeting” some of you like-minded care givers and consumers through this channel! So, I’ve created a new kind of wooden toys Facebook group (BST welcome if you’d like to sell at generous prices). Here’s the description of what it’ll be all about: A community that ...

Penny for my thoughts! Summer ramble about some unexpected moments, things I’m learning, observing more and controlling more, update on my purge, and playroom thoughts. #woodentoys #openendedplay #grimmswoodentoys #parenting #playroomideas #openendedtoys #playroomorganization #naturalliving #summervibes #ourgeneration

Sharing an anecdote about the immense POWER of play in shaping a child’s very soul and future. What we are doing matters! #openendedplay #woodentoys #parenting #openendedtoys #playtherapy #americangirldoll #americangirlbrand #play #playing

Transitioning to wooden toys might be difficult for your child because they are used to toys that do the entertaining and really our entire culture is set up to entertain. Play is something very much different than being entertained and I go into this a bit in this short #openendedplay #woodentoys #grimmswoodentoys #parenting #openendedtoys video.

I’m loving these summer ramblings as deep thoughts simmer and there are many more hours for play. There is so much on my heart about play! Here is a Maileg review, videos of my trip to Adorn in Greenville Delaware (Maileg dealer near our home), Longwood Gardens, etc. #woodentoys #openendedplay #playroomideas #parenting #openendedtoys #playroomorganization #naturalliving #budgeting

My review of Stapelstein inside classic plus inside look at two Facebook group purchases I made this month, which is a lot for me. My logic, approach, and strategy to Facebook B/S/T groups. Also how I afford and strategize Christmas shopping when toys can be so expensive. Hint: I do it all year round! A slow summer update. Hope you enjoy! #woodentoys #openendedplay #grimmswoodentoys #budgeting

Summer is a time for creativity, trying new things, togetherness, and downtime! This is a roundup of unique non-toy toys that we love to use in the summer. #woodentoys #openendedplay #parenting #summer #summervibes

Summer has begun which always brings with it the inspiration to shuffle the playroom (our office in the middle of the house that is too loud to sanction an office!). Also an amazing giveaways story and my review of our first 3 Stapelstein Elements! #woodentoys #grimmswoodentoys #playroomideas #openendedplay #playroomorganization #parenting

As someone who is really challenged in the gift wrapping depart I have really enjoyed the beautiful and reusable alternatives to wrapping paper! They make birthdays and holidays more enjoyable for me as mom, and we all know what happens when mama is happy! #grimmswoodentoys #woodentoys #parenting #naturalliving #maileg #sarahssilks

I love getting to show my kids firsthand what it means to choose and care for heirloom quality wooden toys!

I’m really realizing there are several of you really following along with this channel and I’ve love loved hearing from you! So here’s a slightly personal update and view at what’s to come over the next month! #woodentoys #grimmswoodentoys #parenting #naturalliving #openendedplay #playroomorganization #playroomideas #openendedtoys #ballrungameplay

I still remember getting my first Grimm’s piece (12 piece rainbow) and being surprised and sort of disappointed by the rough texture and lightweight feel of the wood. Little did I know the building possibilities this texture would bring! It is so wonderful and not slippery which is perfect for little hands! Showing you several brand’s textures including PlanToys, Sabo Concept, Raduga Grez, Grap...
