Hape William Stacker

Meet William the Hippo, an iconic figure from The Metropolitan Museum of Art's Egyptian collection, now reimagined as your baby's first learning toy. This officially licensed stacker brings ancient art to life with soft, rounded pieces in serene blue tones that echo the museum's beloved faience hippo.

Designed for little hands, William features easy-to-grasp rings and a hippo topper that encourage hand-eye coordination, spatial awareness, and fine motor skills. Babies delight in stacking, placing, and toppling—discovering the joy of cause and effect while connecting with timeless creativity.

Crafted by Hape's early-childhood experts in collaboration with The Met, each piece carries subtle lotus patterning that honors William's ancient symbolism of rebirth and renewal. Perfect for ages 10 to 24 months, this stacker makes art a natural part of play and learning.
