Happy Folk Hotel

My kids have turned these nine little wooden folks into everything from hotel guests to a whole family reunion. The solid wood feels really nice in their hands, and I love that the soft stain keeps them looking natural instead of plastic.

The water-based stain gives them such a soft, natural look—they don’t feel plasticky at all. My kids love sorting the 9 figures by "mood" and making up stories about who lives on each floor. Solid wood means they’ll survive plenty of tosses into the toy bin.

My toddler picks out "Grandma" and "Baby" every single morning for our little role-play games, and the soft water-based stain smells clean and looks beautiful on the wood. These folks feel solid but have a gentle weight that makes them perfect for small hands. So glad I grabbed them for our open-end
