Let's Investigate Tactile Stones - Safari Footprints

Yellow-Door

This set of safari footprint stones invites children to explore animals of the African savannah through hands-on investigation and imaginative play. Each stone features a raised footprint on one side and the corresponding animal on the reverse, encouraging children to match, compare and identify tracks while learning about different species. Children can create tracking trails, take rubbings or press the stones into modelling dough to explore patterns and textures. The set also supports rich discussions around animal habitats, diets and conservation, helping children build a deeper understanding of the natural world. Made from a durable resin and stone mix, the stones are suitable for use in mud, sand, water or soil. Includes eight double-sided stones, each measuring approximately 70–80mm, featuring lion, elephant, rhinoceros, giraffe, hippopotamus, ostrich, cheetah and zebra.
