Why it lasts.

Solid linden with non-toxic paints, cut by machine and then sanded and painted by hand in a small family workshop. The paint is worked into the grain rather than sitting on top of it, so the wood still reads as wood.

Who it's for

For the parent
It suits a family building a farmyard one animal at a time.
For the educator
It heads the poultry group on a farm shelf, and his comb and tail give children clear features to compare against the hens.
For the gift-giver
It makes a good first piece of a farmyard, and the hens and chicks are the obvious follow-up for the next birthday.

Ways to play.

Stand him on a fence post or beside the barn and the farmyard has someone in charge. He works as a family group with the hens and the chicks, and children almost always give him the job of starting the day, which makes him the first piece moved each morning.

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.
