Three plain pumpkins with deep carved ribs and dark green stems, each with a little collar where the stem meets the body. No faces, so they belong to autumn rather than to one night, and they can stay out well past October.

Why it lasts.

Solid linden with non-toxic paints, cut by machine and then sanded and painted by hand in a small family workshop. The ribs are carved deep enough to catch a shadow, and the stem collar is cut rather than painted, which is the detail that stops them reading as orange balls.

Who it's for

For the parent
It suits a family that decorates for autumn rather than for Halloween.
For the educator
A set of three makes a natural counting and arranging group, and the absence of faces means it works in a classroom that marks harvest but not Halloween.
For the gift-giver
It makes a good autumn gift that is not tied to one night, and three pieces feels like a real present rather than a token.

Ways to play.

Three of anything invites counting and arranging before it invites a story, and young children will line them up unprompted. Put them at the scarecrow's feet for a harvest scene, or on a windowsill where they read as a still life rather than a decoration.

Details

Materials & construction

Every Mako toy is cut to shape and then sanded and painted by hand in a small family workshop in Serbia. The wood is solid linden, chosen because it is light enough for a child to carry and close-grained enough to hold a carved edge. Because each piece is finished by hand, the grain and the depth of color vary slightly from one to the next, and no two are exactly alike.

Finishes are non-toxic. Color is worked into the wood rather than laid over it, so the grain still shows through, and where a piece is dark it is stained rather than coated.

The scenery is built as scenery. Houses and barns are shallow standing fronts rather than enclosed buildings, because they are made to sit at the back of a scene and give the animals somewhere to be. That shallowness is a design decision rather than a shortcut.

Care & storage

Wipe clean with a dry cloth, or one that is barely damp. Never soak or submerge it in water, and do not leave it wet. Keep it out of direct sunlight and away from heat. Store it indoors somewhere dry, and stand the taller pieces upright rather than resting them on a painted edge. Small parts. Not for children under 3 years, and young children should be supervised during play.
