Description
This slot together playset turns sheets of thick card into a lively gathering of animals and flowers, all in the cheerful Wild Wonders design. There are eleven pieces to build: a giraffe with deep red spots, a blue and white striped zebra, a turquoise elephant with a bright orange ear, a lion with a sunny yellow mane, a spotted yellow big cat, a pink flamingo, a toucan, a parrot and three flowers. Each animal is printed in bold, flat colour with a friendly face, so the finished set looks as good standing on a shelf as it does in play.
It is a toy for hands-on play at the table or on the playroom floor. Pop the pieces out of their card sheets and slide the slots together; each part carries a printed letter and number, which makes matching the right pieces simple. Once the animals are standing, they can be gathered into a little jungle scene, moved about for made-up stories, or lined up along a bedroom shelf as a bright display. It makes a cheerful gift for anyone who loves animals and making things, and because the whole set comes flat in its own lidded box, it is very easy to wrap.
The pieces are made from thick card, which gives each animal a sturdy feel once it is slotted together. Packed flat, the whole set measures 21.5cm long, 18cm wide and 2.6cm deep and weighs 0.38KG, so it tucks neatly into a drawer or onto a bookshelf between games. As with any card, it is best kept dry: dust the pieces with a soft dry cloth and keep them in their box so none go astray. For a bright finishing touch in a playroom, we like the giraffe and elephant standing side by side on a windowsill, with the flowers grouped at their feet.
