Freckled Frog

Did you know that learning to value and respect diversity is vital for children to develop a sense of belonging, identity, and well being to become effective communicators and confident involved learners?

This colorful wooden puzzle includes a round wooden base encircling 11 chunky wooden pieces representing a range of children from a cross section of cultural backgrounds with different abilities. This toy promotes the idea that children may all look different and have different abilities, but all are being included.
On the base are outlines of the pieces to aid children in completing the puzzle.
The puzzle supports the development of problem-solving, concentration and fine-motor skills while encouraging children to think inclusively.

Images are printed using non-toxic heat transfer technology and sealed with a clear matt varnish to ensure they last for years to come!

Like all our toys, we use heat transfer technology to ensure the design lasts for years to come. No peeling stickers here.
