Tweet, tweet…. I’m hungry, can you feed me?

A really fun game, designed to improve colour recognition and fine motor skills through play. To play - split the caterpillars between all players, then roll the dice and if the player has that colour caterpillar they need to use the wooden tweezers to feed it to the bird, through its beak. The first player to feed all their caterpillars to the woodpecker wins.

Selling well right now and only a few left!

Hercules Weightlifting

Who is the strongest - Hercules!

A great way to learn the weight relationship by moving the ‘weights’ on Hercules arms. The principle here is to place the coloured, wooden discs onto the pegs on Hercules arms and see how each affects the balance. A great little feature of Hercules is that his irises are attached to his arms, so as the weight balance changes, he actually looks in a different direction!

Great for developing fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination, cognitive and logical thinking skills, whilst learning an understanding for heavier and lighter. There is a card which accompanies this set that demonstrates the greater lesser symbol too. This allows the > to explain than the < for more than and vice versa.

Suitable from 3+

Citrus Fractions

A great way to learn all about fractions, the healthy way. This solid wooden board comes with a knife for cutting the fruit into fractions, along with slices of avocado, apple, kiwi, lemon, orange and watermelon.

Great for developing and understanding fractions along with numerical skills. By ‘slicing’ the fruit also encouraged are fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination and real life skills.

Why not start by working out the different fraction pieces, then as well understanding occurs your little one can move up to adding the different fractions together. How many sixths make a third? How many quarters make a half?

Tropical Butterfly House

This weekend, we had a short break in Sheffield for a family event. We also took the opportunity to visit

Grace & Emily absolutely love it there and each time we are visiting GrandGrand, we get asked if they can go. Emily’s beloved crocodiles are slightly larger than last time 🐊. Grace most likes the tropical 🦋butterfly house.

New for us this time was feeding the 🦦otters. We had a cup filled with 🐟fish, muscles and a 🦀 crab. It was fascinating to watch the otters break open the shells and get a tasty treat.
