Rhinoceros by Renate Müller

- A piece of GDR history for all generations.

This rhinoceros is a real piece of GDR history. It was designed by Renate Müller in Sonneberg in 1967 and produced by VEB Therapeutisches Spielzeug Sonneberg around 1975. Renate Müller was a pioneer in the field of therapeutic toys. She believed in the positive effects of toys on children's development - boring toys were anathema to her.

This rhinoceros has a blue horn and a red back.

The rhinoceros is not only a beautiful toy, but also a valuable tool for promoting child development. The rhinoceros can help children to develop their motor skills, sensory perception and emotional development.

The rhinoceros can help children to develop their motor skills, sensory perception and emotional development. By stroking, pushing and climbing on the rhinoceros, children can improve their motor skills.
The rhinoceros also promotes children's emotional development, as it can be seen as a friend and thus identification with the rhinoceros is encouraged.

A rhinoceros is now a popular collector's item and a design classic. It can serve as a wonderful decorative object.
