Product Features

Children are naturally curious about animals. You can use this play set to teach your preschooler about zoo and the animals that live there.
Talk to your child about where the different animals they live when they are not at the zoo. You can show him/her where the habitat is on a globe or map of the world.
Talk with them about what kinds of sounds the animals make, what colors they are. You can also teach your little one what the animal’s babies or groups of animals are called. For example, a baby lion is a cub and a group of lions is a pride.
Take a trip to the real zoo with your little one. He/she will make the connection between some of his/her toy animals and the real animals in the zoo. Point out the differences to your child by using descriptors like, “Look how big the Lion’s mane is,” or “Don’t the monkey’s hands look like yours?”
You can teach your child about the people who take care of the animals at the zoo. This will introduce him/her to different jobs and roles in society.
