1. Welcome to Stapelstein – More than just a toy
Welcome to a world where movement meets imagination. Stapelstein is not just a toy – it's an invitation: to discover, try out, and be amazed. Our products connect play, motor skills, and creative freedom across generations – indoors, outdoors, in water, or in daycare.
Many parents tell us: “I was surprised at how versatile my child uses Stapelstein – it has completely changed our afternoons.” That's exactly what drives us: to encourage children to play freely – without guidelines, but with plenty of room for ideas.
2. Safety first – for carefree play
Before you start, please take a moment for our safety instructions. Stapelstein stands for movement, but always with the right awareness for safe play. That's why we offer clear recommendations – easy to understand, multilingual, and with PDF downloads for your records.
You will learn, for example, on which surfaces Stapelstein stands safely, how high you can stack without risk, or what load capacity the Balance Board has.
