Fairytale Play Cups

How high can you go? The Fairytale Play Cups turn a simple idea into hours of rich, rewarding play.

Seven pastel cups. Endless possibilities. Children from 12 months will naturally reach for these beautifully coloured cups and begin stacking, sorting, and experimenting right away. Each cup nests inside the next, giving little ones a satisfying challenge as they figure out the order and build their tower ever higher. Knock it down. Build it again. Every time is a new adventure.

The cups are just as brilliant for water and sensory play as they are for stacking. Fill them, pour them, sort objects into them, and use them as moulds in the sandpit. The open-ended nature of this set means children find new ways to play with it again and again, building key skills at every stage without even realising it.

Robust enough for daily use and easy to keep clean, the Fairytale Play Cups are a genuinely versatile resource for home, nursery and early years settings alike. Suitable from 12 months.
