What is a Wobbel Starter?
The Wobbel Starter is similar to the Wobbel Original and PRO, except it’s smaller. It’s gentle curve in the board and light weight makes the starter board perfectly balanced and the slimmer waist and accented corners give the board more stability when flipped over. The Wobbel Starter is ideally suited for intensive use thanks to the synthetic EKO felt that’s made from recycled materials. The EKO felt is super hard wearing, easy to clean and won’t pile. It does not contain any animal based products, which makes it also ideal for anyone following a Vegan lifestyle. Hint: Use Wobbels with felt on hard grounds as wooden floors, tiles, whereas no felt for grounds as carpets.
Learning by doing
Did you know that at first kids have to learn to balance before they can move on to more complicated motor skills such as hopping and climbing stairs?! Wobbel Boards are great for developing core strength, encouraging balance, flexibility and building strength in little people.
More than just a rocker – Play Inspiration
Any Wobbel is not only a beechwood rocking balance board, but also a slide, a yoga aid, a seat, a step. It is perfect to use as a bridge or road for Wooden Animals like Holztiger to march over or put the WaytoPlay Road over the Wobbel as a bridge. Kids love to lie on the Wobbel Board and read stories. The possibilities are endless and the smaller design and lightweight of the Wobbel Starter will give your child even more possibilities to play freely as they will be able to move the balance board from a smaller age. Be creative, it can be anything you want it to be and children instinctively know what to do with a Wobbel. A short movie can say more than 1.000 words ….

Safety instructions
Always let children play under adult supervision and let them get used to the Wobbel. Teach your child from the first time never to hold the edges. Wobbel is designed for indoor play, it may be used out side but this will accelerate wear of the felt and wood.
