Wooden Threading Animals - Pack of 6

Encourage hands-on learning and creativity with the Wooden Threading Animals - Pack of 6, a delightful and engaging activity set that combines fine motor development with imaginative play. Exclusive to MTA, this set includes everything children need to colour, thread, and display their own animal creations.

Each pack contains 6 wooden animal shapes, 3 colours of yarn, and safe plastic threading needles, making it an ideal activity for children aged 3+. The wooden shapes can be painted or coloured in before threading, and once laced, children can add extra embellishments like glitter, joggle eyes, or stickers to personalise their designs even further.

Designed to support fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and concentration, this activity encourages children to follow patterns and develop problem-solving strategies as they thread yarn through pre-drilled holes in the shapes. Included pop-out stands allow each finished animal to be proudly displayed upright, turning crafting into a showcase experience.
