Grimm’s Figures for Counting & Story Telling | Counting by Colour

The Grimm’s Figures for Counting & Story Telling set is a wonderfully versatile wooden toy set that helps children explore number through play. This set includes 55 wooden figures in 10 different character types, all colour coded to match the wider Grimm’s World of Numbers range. There is one teal swan, two green trees, three light green caterpillars, and it continues all the way to ten navy blue cars.

As well as being a brilliant maths toy, these little figures are full of play value in other ways. Children can line them up, sort them by colour or type, count them, stack them, build with them, make patterns, or use them in imaginative small world scenes and storytelling. Because each group follows the same colour sequence as the rest of the Grimm’s Counting by Colour collection, children meet the same values again and again across different toys, helping them build confidence with number through hands-on play.

Made from sustainable lime wood and finished with non-toxic water-based colour stain, the figures have the warm, tactile feel that makes Grimm’s toys so appealing. The natural grain of the wood remains visible through the colour, giving each piece its own character. The set comes in a wooden box with a plexiglass lid, making it easy to store, display, and take out and about.
