These have absolutely brought the widest range of open ended play and methods out of my children. I found another option that was similar, and much better expense, but I chose to buy staplestein because of their ownership of the invention/innovation. The price is painful, but the favoritism for and delight in these is undeniable.

Just ordered, and I absolutely love them! Our kids have been having so much fun with them. They are durable, and I can tell they will last!

My first purchase with Stapelstein had some issues where there were missing items and the quality of the stepping stones wasn’t as expected. Decided to do another purchase and same issue with the quality. For a company that charges so much for some styrofoam toys, I feel like the service could be a lot better.
And they also gave out broken links for the review so I couldn’t even leave a review. Who knows whether this is going to be posted since they probably pick only 5 star reviews to be published.

My child immediately started playing with the elements as soon as they saw them and have been balancing on them every day since. There are so many uses for these items plus they are attractive and do not take up a lot of space, very happy.
Free play and free movement development are the two main pillars of the pedagogically valuable Pikler philosophy, on which we strongly orient ourselves. Therefore, there are no set instructions. Even the youngest children are invited to try out movement and to have all kinds of experiences with their own bodies in free play. This includes, for example, climbing on the Stapelstein® Original, sitting in the bowl and spinning, holding up the Stapelstein® elements, knocking them over, building new play worlds, turning them over, filling them, carrying them around, and much more.
Through their imagination, children keep discovering new features of the Stapelstein® Original and the Stapelstein® Board and grow through the challenges. We recommend ages one and older, since even the youngest discover free play and the accompanying free movement without specific instructions.
The Stapelstein® Original and Stapelstein® Board are made of resource-saving Expanded Polypropylene (EPP). The plastic is 100% recyclable and also free of blowing agents, plasticizers or other additives. The elements in mint and black contain some recycled material.
The Stapelstein® Original and the Stapelstein® Board are 100% manufactured in Germany. This allows us to guarantee quality and a environmentally friendly, fair and climate-neutralized production.
The Stapelstein® Original is 6,34 oz light and can withstand up to 396 lbs. The Stapelstein® Board is 9,45 oz light and can withstand up to 264 lbs.
The EPP used has an insulating property. Therefore, it feels warm even in a cold environment.
