Grapat Perpetual Calendar (English)

The Perpetual Calendar contains 12 Nins® in 12 colours according to the Waldorf pedagogy, both to determine the month and its season of the year: one bowl of natural beech wood, two natural beech wood cubes with the numbers of the days printed, and a platform distributed in four sections that determine the seasons, stamped with the months of the year.

Annual manipulative and active calendar that allows the child to touch the year and understand the passage of time through the experience.

Joguines Grapat is a small, family-run workshop producing natural wooden toys near the base of the Pyrenees mountains in Catalonia, Spain. Casiana and Jordi (the founders of Grapat) drawing on ideas from Waldorf and Montessori pedagogies, and the natural world around them, believe that play is a sacred moment, that simply made toys without instruction encourage children to explore and discover each in their own unique way.  Made with love using mostly beech and birch wood sourced locally from sustainable forests, all Grapat Toys are finished with water-based, non-toxic dyes and vegetable oils, and come beautifully presented in sustainable eco-friendly packaging.
