Responsibility for the environment!

We use real wood for a better quality of life, a healthy atmosphere and for the good of our children. We mainly use beech from regional forestry in our production and our beech wood suppliers are PEFC certified. Wood is a sustainable raw material that protects our resour- ces. If other materials are used in production we make sure that they are also sustainable raw materials (e.g. linoleum).

Real wood

Sustainability

DIN ISO14001

Environmental protection has been a key part of our company policy for many years and we practise it in all phases of production. Use of materials, emissions and waste quantities are continually being reduced. We implement modern energy management under ecological considerations for all types of energy, machines and buildings. We are proud that we meet the environmental standard in accordance with DIN ISO 14001 and also that we are certified in accordance with the EC Eco-Audit regulation (836/93).

On the safe side!

This certificate shows that we have successfully introduced and use a system for ensuring the quality of both products and processes so that we can guarantee their consistent quality. The system involves processes within our company and the products that we manufacture and sell.

DIN EN ISO 9001

Our staff and their families matter to us!

The whole of the HABA family of companies has been awarded a certificate for the “Work & Family” audit. In 2008, the HABA family of companies was also commended for its dedication by the „Oberfranken offensiv – Forum Zukunft Oberfranken” (Upper Franconia offensive - Upper Franconia Future Forum) Staff can leave crèche-age children in the care of experienced carers in the company’s own “Luise Habermaaß” crèche.

With the same, the player tries to bring the fish family of his or her color back together. This requires dexterity, patience, strategic thinking, but also mutual conside-rateness. The magnet pens are attached to the frame with a cord and can be stuck sideways into the frame. The game instructions are printed on the game plan. This game is ideal for the foyer or waiting areas, because nothing can get lost and it is always ready to play. Type: allocation game.

133786Ligno Building BlocksFor little master builders even with handicap. The construction set was developed specifically for children with movement disorders of the hands. The possibilities range from simple stacking of the building blocks all the way to sophisticated three-dimensional structures, such as high towers, rooms with many angles and corners, by connecting the blocks vertically and horizontally with the pegs. The game exercises and the independent playing with the building blocks train the grasping movements, the visual and spatial perception, attentiveness and concentration in many ways. While building, the children develop an understanding of space and position, learn to differentiate shapes, colors and amounts and exercise themselves in creative design and experimental playing.

Contents: 160 blocks in 4 sizes, 24 blocks with arcs in different sizes, 24 cylinders in 4 heights, 10 triangular bodies, 8 hemispheres, 8 half cylinders, 8 cones, 2 staircases and 2 roof elements (both natural color), one peg board (natural), 80 pegs in 8 lengths (natural). For all this, there is a sturdy box (width 36.6 x height 29 x depth 36.8 cm), in which everything can be nicely stored.

Material: Multiplex, partially in 5 colors.

Dimensions: smallest block 3.2 x 3.2 x 3.2 cm, cylinder Ø 3.2 cm, cylinder heights 3.2–12.8 cm, roof element length 16 x width 9.6 cm, peg board 35.2 x 35.2 cm.

The players swap ideas about animals and their habitats or tools, materials and methods and classify the image cards accordingly. The cards (9 x 9cm) are arranged on the table in a matrix. Both of the games help to deve-lop cognitive and linguistic skills, perception of space and positions and retentiveness.

Contents: 35 image cards and 1 set of instructions per game.

140022Formico Layer PuzzleGood things come in threes! Three lovingly illustrated, bright and colourful placement boards and three placement variations. The boards can be placed on top of one another, one after the other, and the missing parts added to each. The number of pieces increases from board to board and, with it, the level of difficulty. When it comes to allocating the pieces, their shape, colour and the colourful borders of the holes all help. The special thing about the placement pieces is that they are not always flush with the placement board, but higher. Children can also complete the boards independently of each other or use the placement pieces for free placement of patterns or geometric shapes. Material: boards made from plywood with coloured print, beech building blocks with coloured stain.

Contents: 1 natural base, 3 placement boards (29.5 x 29.5cm each), 25 placement pieces in 9 shapes and 6 colours (smallest square 4 x 4cm, largest square 8 x 8cm).

Age: 3 years +

091531 Vehicles Puzzle Set6 - 8 differently shaped pieces are to be used in each of the 3 puzzles. The game becomes exciting when all of the puzzle pieces are lying out and everybody has to find the right pieces for their puzzle. The pieces have different shapes and sizes and, of course, prints, to match the 3 designs: diggers, fire bri-gade and tractors. To make the puzzles “ready for use” again, the pieces can be pushed up from below with a fingertip.

Material: plywood, 12mm thick.

Dimensions: 24.5 x 24.5cm.

093583 Thinking fun 3 - distorted dot pictures (6 years and over)

093584 Thinking fun set, 4-piece (1 block each of volumes 1 - 4)

The dot and grid pictures are all about transferring the given motifs onto the grid pattern dot by dot, using a ruler and pencil. Children can use the specified stopping points as a guide. The finished pictures can then be coloured in. The patterns for the dot pictures also make good pricking patterns. Dot and grid pictures train fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination. They can be used as an “eye-opener” in the mornings before actual lessons begin, as bonus time for children who work faster, a break-time activity, a topic in geometry and art classes or in small groups or remedial teaching. The blocks come in different levels of difficulty and range from simple dot transfers to symmetry and mirroring. Each block has 50 sheets and 48 patterns made from thick paper (220g/m2).

135441Ludo lightPlayed following the same rules as normal Ludo, but the board has fewer spaces and each player only has two counters. This makes the game considerably shorter! The counters are easy to handle and, thanks to the recessed spaces, they can‘t fall over. All of this makes this game ideal for children with limited motor skills or who can‘t concentrate for long. The heads of the counters also have different shapes. This means that visually impaired players can recognise their counters by feel.

Contents: Board made from birch wood (24 x 24 cm), 8 counters, 2 dices ( 1 - 3 spots and 1 - 6 spots) and instructions.

Dressing FramesWith the dressing frames, the motor func-tion of the fingers and eye-hand coordi-nation can be excellently promoted. When opening and closing the different types of fasteners repeatedly, precision and dili-gence are key. Besides learning indispen-sable skills for practical life, the children take a step towards independence at the same time. The sturdy wooden dressing frames are covered with durable cot-ton and/or heavy duty imitation leather. The cover is always single-colored, so the children can concentrate on the fasteners and are not distracted by color patterns.

Dimensions: 30 x 30 cm.
