Children can add an extra level of excitement to outdoor play with these fun and furry animal catching tails! Simply clip on the tail and try to catch as many tails from friends or classmates as possible. This engaging activity encourages teamwork, active movement, and imaginative roleplay, making it a fantastic addition to both structured and free play.

This set includes a variety of animal tails, such as a furry raccoon, a zesty zebra, a roaring lion, and a feisty fox. The bright colours and distinct textures allow children to easily identify the different animals while enhancing visual tracking skills. The game can be played with as few as two players or up to six players, with the option to purchase multiple sets for larger group activities and team-based play.

The soft felt material and safe clip design with no sharp edges ensure that children can attach and remove the tails easily without risk of injury. This game supports gross motor skill development by encouraging children to run, jump, and hop while chasing and catching tails, all while promoting sharing, teamwork, and turn-taking.
