Getting About Town Set

The Getting About Town Set is a complete collection of everything young children need to bring their imaginative community to life. This beautifully crafted 19-piece set features roads, cars, buildings, trees, and more, creating a perfect environment for small world play. With a mix of rubber/cork and wooden pieces, including materials like New Zealand pine, plywood, and beech wood, this set will complement any classroom while stimulating creativity and learning.

This set encourages role-playing, problem-solving, and the development of social skills such as turn-taking and conversation. Whether they're exploring a bustling city, planning a community scene, or simply experimenting with vehicles and structures, children can engage in hours of imaginative play that enriches their understanding of the world around them.
