Description
Down on the floor, a small captain is loading the crew. The blue sailor in the blue boat, the red in the red — until a tiny hand decides the green one would rather sail somewhere else entirely. These Little Land Yachts hand the whole voyage over to your child: who sails, where they go, and what happens when they get there.
Four wooden boats, four colour-matched sailors, and a fleet that goes wherever the day does. Drop them in the bath and they truly float, riding the natural buoyancy of the wood. Pull them onto the carpet and they roll across open seas of their own making; carry them out to the sandbox and the shore moves with them. The sailors keep simple, open faces on purpose — brave one minute, ready for a nap the next, exactly as the story asks.
Why we love the Grimm's Little Land Yachts with Sailors:
- Open-Ended Play: Match the colours, swap the crews, or let every sailor chart their own course.
- They Really Float: Solid wood rides the water, turning bath time into the high seas.
- Quality Craftsmanship: Hand-finished from sustainably sourced European woods, the way Grimm's has always done it.
- Made to Last: Heirloom-quality and built for years of play, then ready to hand down to the next little captain.
Four little boats, one small captain, and a sea that's wherever you say it is.
Can these little boats really go in the bath?
Yes. Each boat is solid wood, which floats naturally, so the whole fleet sails in the tub or at the water table. Let them air-dry at room temperature afterward, away from heaters and direct sun, and they'll last for years.
What's the difference between the Little Land Yachts and the Large Land Yacht?
This set gives each sailor their very own boat — four boats, four sailors — so it's lovely for colour-matching, sorting, and sending everyone off on separate adventures. The Large Land Yacht seats all four sailors in one bigger boat, which is better for sharing and crew-together play.
Do the colours need to match a certain way?
Not at all. Each sailor comes with a boat in their own colour, but there's no right way to play — pair them up, mix them all together, or let one captain the whole fleet. The matching is there if your little one enjoys it, and easy to ignore if they don't.
Are these a good gift for a toddler who still mouths toys?
They're hand-finished with non-toxic, water-based colour stains, so they're made with little ones in mind. As with any smaller wooden figures, keep play supervised and check the age guidance in the details below.
