With sturdy bases, they are perfect for imaginary play, enabling children to develop rich language and storytelling skills as they flutter away on enchanting adventures! Delightfully sensory, the details can be felt as well as seen and children will enjoy making imprints in play clay or taking rubbings using wax crayons. Made from a stone resin mix, they are durable enough to be used in water, soil, mud and play clay, and easily cleaned!
Ideal for investigations, children can compare their wing shapes and details, and explore how they are similar to butterflies locally. By observing their tonal and tactile attributes, children will develop comparing and sorting skills and develop their descriptive vocabulary whilst discussing the similarities and differences between the butterflies.
