This large set of 63 beechwood pieces includes a variety of objects such as rings, cubes, egg cups, spools, balls, bowls, and a 32cm ring holder. The set also comes with guidance notes and a cotton drawstring storage bag, making it easy to organise and store. Suitable from 10 months, this set promotes inquiry-based learning and creative exploration.
