Small World Dinosaur Kit

Overview

• Children will bring the dinosaurs to life by rolling scenes, investigating footprint trails, and creating language-rich play.

• The kit includes the following resources which may be used separately or together to inspire play and further learning:

• Dinosaur Wooden Characters – Eight double sided dinosaurs including Ankylosaurus, Diplodocus, Iguanodon, Spinosaurus, Stegosaurus, Triceratops, Tyrannosaurus rex and Velociraptor.

• Let’s investigate Dinosaur Footprints – Eight double sided stones that show a dinosaur footprint on one side and the owner on the other. These stones contain footprints from Apatosaurus, Deinonychus, Hypsilophodon, Iguanodon, Quetzalcoatlus, Stegosaurus, Triceratops and Tyrannosaurus rex.

• Let’s Roll Dinosaurs – A set of six rollers including roaring head & Tyrannosaurus rex, coelacanth fish & Spinosaurus, prehistoric scene & Diplodocus, volcanic landscape & Triceratops, spinal plates & Stegosaurus, and hatchling & dinosaur eggs. Suitable for ages 10 months and up.

• Children can explore roles in imaginative play, encouraging creativity and understanding of the natural world. The tactile dinosaur footprints and rollers support motor skills development and early years pedagogy and are built to last with durable stone and wood.

• This collection allows children to investigate dinosaur footprints and develop complex stories using the small world equipment, supporting the EYFS curriculum by helping children know some similarities and differences between things in the past and now.
