Established over 60 years ago, Gluckskafer was a small family run toy business located in the south of Germany. It was founded by Manfred Käfer, whose personal commitment to the good of all children is not only reflected by his entrepreneurial accomplishment but by being a father of 6 wonderful children.  Now owned by nic Toys, Gluckskafer are known around the world for their beautiful wooden toys that encourage child-directed free play and creativity.
