Dig and Discover Set - 6 Dinosaurs

Dive into the fascinating prehistoric world with this engaging fossil discovery set featuring six different dinosaur skeletons. Children will love unearthing the chunky fossil pieces from sand, soil or sensory trays before assembling them to create complete dinosaur skeletons. The tactile nature of the pieces encourages hands-on exploration while sparking curiosity about prehistoric life and ancient environments.

Each skeleton is made up of either four or six pieces, providing a range of assembly challenges that support the development of spatial awareness, critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Children can also examine, compare and classify the fossils, encouraging observation and discussion about dinosaurs, habitats and the natural world. The detailed textures can be felt as well as seen, making the pieces ideal for creating impressions in playdough and extending sensory play experiences.

Suitable for indoor and outdoor use, the durable stone mix construction allows the fossils to withstand repeated use in a variety of learning environments.

This set includes 6 dinosaur skeleton puzzles, each consisting of 4 or 6 pieces.

Completed skeleton size: approximately 250mm.
