Whimisical Maypole Delights Children and Adults Without Batteries!


Magic Cabin offers this delightful version of an old-fashioned folk toy for about $17.00. The Mushroom Maypole moves when wound up, spinning back and forth, while it bounces up and down. I am truly fascinated with the movement, as are both of my children. The Mushroom Maypole is rated for children three years and older, but I have found that babies enjoy staring at it and are likewise fascinated by the motion. The kinetic motion of the toy is a great lesson in physics, as children try to figure out how the motion is sustained. We have a different version of this delightful toy purchased at a local toy store, and I still think it is one of the best wooden toys for its simplicity, design, and pleasure.

    What an awesome toy. I’ve always loved Magic Cabin but I haven’t visited in some time.

    Thanks so much for promoting Magic Cabin toys. It’s because of responsible parents like you that we continue to produce toys that inspire open-ended, creative, imaginative play. Old fashioned maybe, but well worth it.
    thanks again!
