😊💭🌱 Lanka Kade Wooden Feelings Folk Playset – 12 Figures
Help little ones explore the world of emotions with the Lanka Kade Wooden Feelings Folk Playset. This beautifully designed set includes 12 chunky wooden figures, each representing a different feeling, providing a simple and engaging way for children to recognise, explore and talk about emotions through play.
From happy and calm to angry, worried, shy and embarrassed, the colourful characters represent a range of familiar emotions that children may experience in everyday life. The figures provide an accessible starting point for conversations, helping parents, carers and educators encourage children to identify expressions and begin putting their feelings into words.
Each figure is double-sided, with the facial expression printed on one side, creating lots of opportunities for open-ended activities. Children can use the characters in their own imaginary games, while adults can introduce activities around feelings, communication, storytelling and emotional recognition. The figures can also be given their own names, personalities and stories, making them a wonderfully flexible addition to small world play.
Beyond emotional learning, the chunky figures are lovely for little hands to handle. Picking them up, arranging them and moving them around supports fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, spatial awareness and sorting. They can also be incorporated into story sacks, classroom activities and small world scenes, giving children plenty of different ways to play and learn.
Made from durable rubber wood, the 12 figures are approximately 25mm thick and designed to withstand plenty of hands-on play. Lanka Kade works directly with its producers in Sri Lanka and follows the internationally recognised 10 Principles of Fair Trade, making this a thoughtful choice for families and educational settings looking for beautifully made, responsibly produced wooden toys.
Suitable from 10 months, with Lanka Kade recommending a play age of 1 to 11 years, this Feelings Folk Playset can grow with a child and be used in increasingly complex ways as their communication and understanding develop. Supplied in a branded box, it also makes a thoughtful gift for toddlers, pre-schoolers, classrooms and families.
