A first introduction to animal species from each of the 7 continents. Through working with the Animal Continent Box, children are inspired to work with the Puzzle Map Of The World Parts. Set includes: 28 high quality wooden animals, separate continent, picture, and label cards, 1 copy card and instructions, all housed in a nesting beechwood box.
Nienhuis cannot go back to plastic animals The manufacturers of the plastic animals keep changing their ranges and this makes it impossible to maintain a solid range and content.
Nienhuis use the argument that the wooden animals show real images of the animals and our experience is that children find them really attractive.
Adults need to look without bias to how the children work with them.
