Inspire natural curiosity and creativity with the Pine Cones – 200g Bag, a beautifully tactile and versatile resource for sensory exploration, imaginative play, and seasonal craft activities. Supplied in a generous 200g pack, this set includes approximately 15 pine cones, each measuring between 4cm and 6cm in length. Their varying size, shape, and natural colour offer children the opportunity to observe, compare, and create with a unique, real-world material.
Perfect for early childhood settings, these ethically sourced pine cones are a by-product of sustainable plantation harvesting - not collected from natural forests - ensuring a responsible and eco-conscious approach to learning materials. With their rough textures and rich, earthy tones, the pine cones are ideal for open-ended inquiry, supporting children in building mini landscapes, using them in sensory bins, or incorporating them into festive crafts for events like Christmas or seasonal displays.
Children can use pine cones in a multitude of ways - left in their natural state, painted, embellished or used alongside other natural loose parts.
