Grimm's Sparkling Mandala Orient

My six-year-old spent an entire afternoon arranging these wooden pieces into a circular mandala pattern, then knocking it down to start again. The way the colors shift from light to dark in the rings is mesmerizing, and the pieces fit together perfectly for building towers too.

My three-year-old has been obsessed with arranging the pieces into circular mandala patterns on the floor. The 52 blocks are the perfect variety of colors and shapes to keep her focused for a full hour. Even I find it strangely satisfying to snap the segments together.

Opened the box and was immediately struck by how beautifully the wood pieces catch the light with their sparkling finish. My six-year-old loves sorting them by color before building little towers. Only knock is the box lid doesn't close quite flush when full.
