Grapat means a “handful” in Catalan – and these insects are a handful of cuteness, indeed! Just like any other Grapat toys, they come without instructions how to play.

And while they are beautiful open-ended materials, we still collected a couple of simple play ideas for you! No, not as a manual, rather to give you a glimpse how versatile these toys can be even beyond imaginative play. And who knows, maybe to inspire you to come up with your own ideas?
