PlanToys Montessori-Inspired Dino Cars - Set of 3

The PlanToys Montessori-Inspired Dino Cars - Set of 3 brings together three beautifully crafted push-along dinosaurs: the friendly blue Dino Diplo Car, the bold red Dino Rex Car, and the gentle green Dino Stego Car. Each wooden dinosaur encourages toddlers to explore movement, coordination and imaginative play through hands-on discovery. Inspired by Montessori principles, these simple, open-ended toys invite children to push, roll, and guide their prehistoric friends across a variety of surfaces, helping to build essential fine and gross motor skills while sparking creative storytelling.

Sustainably made from chemical-free rubberwood, non-toxic E-Zero glue, organic pigments and water-based dyes, each car reflects PlanToys' unwavering commitment to safety, sustainability and child-led learning. With smooth curves, tactile finishes and durable wooden wheels, these dino cars are perfectly sized for little hands to grasp, promoting a natural sense of cause and effect-when I push, it moves. Whether racing along the floor, joining a pretend dino parade or cruising through a mini-world of leaves and rocks, this set is designed to delight toddlers and educators alike, providing hours of purposeful play rooted in eco-friendly craftsmanship and educational value.
