First, they'll just enjoy the satisfying 'clunk' of dropping the chunky wooden pieces into the matching pots. It's a simple cause-and-effect game that builds confidence as they realise they can make things fit. The smooth curves and bright, water-based paints are safe for the inevitable taste test, too. As their coordination grows, you'll see them start to match the colours correctly—pairing the purple beetroot with its purple pot. This is when the real work begins: balancing the pieces to 'grow' the veggies tall requires steady hands and focus. It's a brilliant way to support fine motor development and early problem-solving skills without frustration.

Why our customers love this

Beautiful and great quality stacking veggies.

— Helen, Henley Beach, SA

This is designed for toddlers who are moving past simple rattles and are ready to engage with how things fit together.

The Curious Toddler (18m-2.5y): Who loves putting things in and taking them out of containers repeatedly.
The Little Chef: Who needs 'fresh ingredients' for their play kitchen or shop setup.
The Sensory Seeker: Who enjoys the contrast between smooth wood and soft fabric textures.

From Stacking to Storytelling

At first glance, it's a beautiful stacking toy. But watch closely and you'll see it become a central part of their daily play. One day they're 'planting' the seeds in the pots, the next they're 'harvesting' ingredients for a pretend soup in their play kitchen. The open-ended nature of these three veggies—a carrot, beetroot, and radish—means they aren't limited to just one way of playing.

Building Dexterity Naturally

The real magic happens in the hands. Each vegetable is sliced into segments that need to be balanced on top of each other. This isn't just about making a tower; it's about hand-eye coordination and understanding balance. Because the pieces are interchangeable, your toddler can mix them up to create 'funny veggies'—a carrot bottom with a radish top—which always gets a giggle and encourages them to experiment with different combinations.

A Sensory Garden

Toddlers learn through touch, and this set delivers. The cool, smooth rubberwood contrasts beautifully with the soft, tactile felt leaves on top. It's a small detail, but one that keeps little fingers exploring. Plus, the natural wood pots provide a sturdy base, so frustration is kept to a minimum as they learn to stack higher and higher. It's a lovely, quiet toy that bridges the gap between simple block play and early role-play. If you are looking to expand their market stall, these pair perfectly with the Le Toy Van Harvest Vegetables in Crate.

Dimensions

The carrot measures approximately 6.3cm x 6.3cm x 14.5cm when fully stacked in its pot.
