Rainbow Gnomes Set of 7

Brighten up any play space with the enchanting Papoose Rainbow Felt Gnomes, a set of 7 charming felt figures in a full spectrum of rainbow hues. Lovingly handcrafted from natural wool felt with wooden heads, these delightful gnomes offer an irresistible invitation to storytelling, sorting, colour recognition and imaginative adventures.

Each gnome wears a tall, pointy hat and features a soft, tactile finish that supports sensory exploration. Their simple, Waldorf-inspired design allows children to project their own ideas and emotions onto the figures, encouraging rich, open-ended play that evolves with their developmental stage.

Whether they’re guarding fairy gardens, helping in small-world scenes, or starring in puppet shows, these gnomes are the perfect companions for creative expression and educational fun. Their colour range also makes them a helpful tool for early learning, including counting, sequencing, and matching activities.
