Screen free toys that children finish themselves

Crateit is open ended play in wood. The toys have no screen, no batteries and no right answer. They come unpainted, so children assemble them, colour them and keep playing, and when the play changes, they can be recolored and rebuilt.

Play with your hands

The parts click together without glue, so children can assemble, take apart and build something new themselves. Every set becomes something the child has helped to make, and it is a cozy task to do together.

Three ways to start

Crateit Town is a wooden city with roads, cars, a fire station and a police station, which grows set by set. Roomies is a wooden dollhouse children build room by room and furnish themselves. And with our markers for wood everything is coloured layer by layer, so the city and the house can change again and again.

Toys that grow with the child

Because the sets fit together, play can grow over time. Roomies can be combined with Crateit Town, so the dollhouse stands in the middle of the city, and the children build the stories themselves across the universes.

Made by people in Denmark

Crateit is designed in Odense and produced at sheltered workshops in Denmark, where every part is shaped, assembled and packed by people, not machines.

The questions we get most often

What is open ended play?

Toys without one right way to play with them. Crateit has no right answer: the children decide what the city and the house should be, and can rebuild and recolor them.

Does it come painted?

No. It comes unpainted so the child colours it with our markers, layer by layer.

Is glue or a tool needed?

No. The parts click together without glue and without tools.

Do the ranges fit together?

Yes. Roomies can be combined with Crateit Town, so the dollhouse becomes part of a whole city.

Where is it made?

It is designed in Odense and produced at sheltered workshops in Denmark.
