MTA Spaces - Omni People - Acacia Wood - Pack of 12

The Omni People - Pack of 12 from MTA Spaces is a beautifully crafted set of natural wooden figures designed to support open-ended, imaginative, and therapeutic play. Suitable for children aged 3 years and over, this collection includes 12 tactile figures made from richly toned Acacia wood, treated with natural vegetable oil to enhance durability and texture. Perfect for small world setups, dramatic play corners, or calming sensory spaces, these wooden people help children strengthen fine motor skills, creativity, language development, and social interaction through authentic, child-led play.

These faceless wooden figures invite children to project their own emotions, stories, and characters onto them, making them an excellent tool for imaginative role play, storytelling, and social development.
