Description
This limited edition replica of Croaky the Frog, one of the Kellner's original steckfigurens, is truly special. Handmade in Germany by award-winning toymaker Hans-Georg Kellner, children have been playing with Croaky the Frog for over 80 years. As one of the original characters belonging to Kellner's Stick Figure Family, this frog is sure to delight both the young and old at heart.
The combination of cleverly designed, colorful geometric shapes, unique rubber "Jummis" - or connectors (that make a great "popping" sound when pulled apart) - and bits of felt and string put children of all ages in charge of this simple yet wonderfully creative building block system. Construct crazy stick figure designs to your heart's content. And since there are deliberately no instructions included, you are limited only by your imagination.
Choking Hazard: Not suitable for children under 3 years old.
