Children can easily get to know the familiar animals that live in Japan's forests.

This is a toy that allows you to see, touch, and smell the different materials and feel the warmth of each wood. Through the cutely designed building blocks of forest animals and sea creatures, you can feel the warmth of nature and the breath of life.

Safe and secure wooden toys

Oak Village is a woodworking studio in Takayama, Gifu, founded in 1974.
Oak Village operates with the concept of "a tree that takes 100 years to grow should be usable for 100 years," and creates products that can last and be used for the same amount of time that it took for the trees to grow.

All of our products are made using domestic solid wood and other materials, and are carefully finished by craftsmen using natural oils, lacquers, and other paints to bring out the individuality of the wood.

Based on the idea that "for every tree we receive from the mountains, we should give back one," he also founded the NPO "Acorn Association," which is dedicated to forestation and reforestation activities and is active throughout Japan.
