Magnetic Wooden Animal Toys

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The NINI AMICI Toy Set is Made with Elmwood

— April 15, 2022 — Life-Stages
The NINI AMICI toy set is a modular wooden range of playthings for children aged three and up that focuses on a naturalistic design as well as imaginative play. The toys are crafted in a workshop located in Upper Franconia, Germany where they are fairly produced by artisans with mental and physical disabilities. Each set of toys come with a booklet filled with suggestions and can be used for creating a range of different wooden animals.

The NINI AMICI toy set is constructed with children in mind, but maintains a stylish design that will also be favored by adults with a penchant for desktop toys. The sets come with three basic bodies, seven body parts, a storage bag and the aforementioned instruction booklet for €85.
