Why it lasts.

An upright neck on a small figure is where a wooden animal usually breaks, so this one is cut thick and from the same block as the body. The cream is worked into the grain rather than laid over it.

Who it's for

For the parent
It suits a family building a pond scene, and it is the goose with something to say.
For the educator
It belongs on a pond shelf, and its raised head beside the grazing goose gives children two clear behaviors to name.
For the gift-giver
It makes a small gift for a child building a pond, and the pair of geese together make a better one.

Ways to play.

Stand it on a blue play cloth beside the grazing goose and the pair tell a small story on their own. Children usually decide this is the one keeping watch, and put it at the edge of the water.

Details

Materials & construction

Every Mako toy is cut to shape and then sanded and painted by hand in a small family workshop in Serbia. The wood is solid linden, chosen because it is light enough for a child to carry and close-grained enough to hold a carved edge. Because each piece is finished by hand, the grain and the depth of color vary slightly from one to the next, and no two are exactly alike.

Finishes are non-toxic. Color is worked into the wood rather than laid over it, so the grain still shows through, and where a piece is dark it is stained rather than coated.

The scenery is built as scenery. Houses and barns are shallow standing fronts rather than enclosed buildings, because they are made to sit at the back of a scene and give the animals somewhere to be. That shallowness is a design decision rather than a shortcut.

Care & storage

Wipe clean with a dry cloth, or one that is barely damp. Never soak or submerge it in water, and do not leave it wet. Keep it out of direct sunlight and away from heat. Store it indoors somewhere dry, and stand the taller pieces upright rather than resting them on a painted edge. Small parts. Not for children under 3 years, and young children should be supervised during play.
