The 14” wheels are tough and grippy and able to withstand a bit of battering and we liked the added safety of the chainguard. In this kit you’ll find two template sheets, a flip tray, a double-sided aqua pen and sprayer and 900 beads in 24 colours. I do think the instructions do need to increase the drying time, because most of our creations took over the 10 minute drying time. We have several dinosaur enthusiasts in our house, so this board game was always bound to be an instant hit. Our four year old really loved the hidden pirate cave, which sparked plenty of intriguing tales of hidden bounty and the fact that the little row boat actually floats, means the play can continue on into bathtime.

Sharing can still cause a few preschooler rifts (putting it mildly), so practicing these social skills is key.At the core of this set are 10 different colourful animals (which can all be built at the same time), but once these are done, children are free to explore the rest of the blocks and create whatever they fancy. Our four year old loved counting along the rows and collecting up the eggs and it’s a fantastic toy for teaching turn taking and those first numeracy skills. This two-story house comes with three characters; a vet, a dog and a cat and lots of lovely miniature accessories including three tiny x-rays and comfy beds for everyone.

Decorate your carry case with favorite creations and carry around anywhere, or even display in your room! They may also be more keen to get around independently, so now could be time to introduce a first pedal bike or scooter.

Template designs include rabbit, dolphin, dinosaur, rainbow, ice cream, and other motifs which can be crafted by placing included star, solid, and jewel beads onto the tray. Alongside this, four year olds often turn into very social creatures, so toys that can be shared with friends, or better yet, encourage them to take turns with each other is ideal. I got this product two week back and it was so good for kids to play at home and make them so creativity with the beeds activity.
