From the second half of the 19th century, the child was given increasing pedagogical attention and at the same time was opened up as a new consumer group. Influenced by the reform pedagogue and kindergarten founder Friedrich Wilhelm August Fröbel (1782 - 1852), so-called "domestic activity games", which also extended to the field of color, boomed. In direct reference to Froebel, the wickerwork with colored paper strips as well as the pegging and placement games with colored tiles can be seen. There were also games with liquid paint for spraying and painting, to which the color spinning tops, which were more strongly influenced by color theory, were added later.
