There are many things that I love about Waldorf toys. I suppose that overall I love that they are natural, open-ended, and simple, leaving room for children to explore, learn, and create their own world of play as they grow and develop with their toys.
I love the look and the feel of natural Waldorf inspired toys. Not only do my children love to pick them up and play with them, they create a play area that is a joy to look at and to be in, even as an adult. The open ended nature of the toys requires that my kids invest their own imagination in the play, one of the most valuable lessons any toy can “teach.” I am thrilled when I see my kids transfer this skill to the more conventional toys that they receive from other relatives. Waldorf toys are simply beautiful.
We LOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE the wooden vehicles – oh my, wouldn’t a little boy here love to have them all!!

I feel safer knowing that Waldorf toys are made with natural materials. I also like how well-made they are!

I am excited about your blog. I noticed “A Homemade Life” is on your nightstand – I loved that book. Her banana bread recipe in there is spectacular (the one with crystalized ginger). Also the tip about doing french toast in oil and not butter – I do it in coconut oil now and it is yummy.

Natural toys inspire! The quality and durable are unmatched. Our home wouldn’t have it any other way!
We LOVE Bella Luna Toys! What I love most about the toys made of natural materials, such as wood, cotton, and wool, is that my child experiences the qualities of these components which are of the earth, and had lives of their own. So much of what is given to children to play with is artificial and disposable, containing none of the inherent magic of the things made by nature!

I love that the toys inspire imagination and are beautiful to have around. Not only do I love watching the different ways my 3 children play with these toys,when it’s time to go to clean up I don’t feel like hiding them away in a cupboard(the toys, not my children!). The quality is awesome too.
The way that natural toys nourish the heart when they are played with, and develop the lifeforce of the young child.
Love imaginative play toys and natural materials!

I love the natural beauty and simplicity of wooden toys. They also encourage children to actively use their imagination to make them “real” unlike plastic battery powered toys.

As I’ve been reading about education, I’ve fallen in love with many aspects of waldorf. What I really really like is the open ended ways for them to use their imagination and connect with nature. Where they imagine, vs. a toy that does all the imagining for them. I love the simplicity and beauty of them.
We loved the wooden rainbow

Love the open ended concepts of Waldorf toys and that they are made of natural materials. Play just increases with with them rather than becoming locked in a premade script. Thanks for offering this giveaway!

i love the to see these toys all over the house. silks tossed over my daughter’s chair after she has changed into several different silk configurations. tree blocks become a home for a squirrel family and homemade fairies (on the kitchen floor). these toys are naturally beautiful and they become part of your home. and because clean up must happen i constantly find myself snapping pictures of their lovely creations and imaginative play. thank you for the giveaway!

I love how natural toys feel, but even before touching them, which is irresistable, they invite you to pick them up, to play, to imagine and create.

One thing I love that natural wooden toys don’t clash with my house. They fit right in, actually adding to the look of my home!

already a fb fan, subscriber, etc. my son with special needs tends to do a lot of mouthing. Though we are not purists when it comes to natural toys, I do feel better about him having cloth or wood during these phases.
