Announcement    In 1971, Damhorst Toys manufactured the first ever original personalized wooden name puzzle stool, patterned after a jigsaw puzzle. Made in America, the name puzzle stool became an instant hit. By design, it taught small children hand-eye coordination as they struggled with and then mastered proper placement of the puzzle pieces. It taught them to recognize shapes and distinguish one letter and one color from the next, and to spell their name. It also instilled a sense of independence while brushing their teeth, reaching up into a closet, and having their own "chair" to sit on while reading. We are a second generation family owned business focused on maintaining the quality craftsmanship and customer service that has kept us in business for the last 43 years.
