Description

With Make & Play | Build a Tree, build your very own model beautiful oak tree with 15 press-out play animals, while learning about the crucial role trees play on our planet. This gorgeous interactive guide to trees is a delight for nature lovers and budding conservationists who enjoy model crafting and imaginative play.

Press out the pieces and follow easy-to-follow instructions to build a 30-cm slot-together model of an oak tree, beautifully illustrated to show the tree in every season. No glue or scissors needed. Over 15 buildable models add to the scene, including a deer, a fox, a wild boar, rabbits, an owl, a crow, robins and more to bring to life and recreate the tree’s ecosystem.

The kit also features an intricately illustrated 32-page book, which explores every aspect of what makes trees unique, from the forest floor to up high in the canopy and all the biology and living things in between. Discover the wide variety of different forest from around the world, how trees provide a home to a wide range of creatures, tree biology, conservation and the incredible fungal networks that let trees communicate.

With endless play value as well as a lovely decorative piece to brighten up a bedroom, Build a Tree helps build a connection to the natural world and stimulates imaginative play.
