Fair Trade - Felt Rainbow Storage & Stacking Cubes

A Beautiful, Sensory Resource for Sorting, Storing, and STEM Play - The Fair Trade Felt Rainbow Storage & Stacking Cubes by Papoose are handcrafted, woollen felt containers that bring functionality and vibrant beauty to any early childhood learning environment. Made from 100% natural wool and coloured using non-toxic dyes, these nesting cubes are hand-felted in Nepal under Fair Trade conditions, supporting small communities through ethical and sustainable practices.

This set of soft, fabric cubes includes a range of sizes, with the largest cube measuring 18 cm wide x 13 cm high and the smallest 7 cm wide x 6 cm high. These cubes nest inside one another for easy storage and are perfect for sorting, stacking, organising loose parts, or enhancing display areas. Their textured surface adds a tactile sensory element, enriching children's play experiences and encouraging exploration through touch.
