Polar Bear Family/3pc

Bring a little Arctic magic into your room with this charming Polar Bear Family. This 3-piece set of hand-felted bears is perfect for small-world play, story retellings and conversations about animals, families and icy habitats. The soft texture invites gentle touch, while the three sizes - largest, medium and smallest - naturally lead to language like "big" , "bigger" , "small"  and "baby" . Children can imagine the bears travelling across snowy landscapes, caring for their cubs or searching for food on the ice. Made from felt, they are cosy to hold and add a warm, tactile element to block areas, tuff tray invitations and book corners. The Polar Bear Family works beautifully alongside other Arctic pieces, loose parts and natural materials, supporting rich, imaginative play and early science learning in a subtle, inviting way.

Educational benefits:

• Encourages imaginative and symbolic play as children invent stories about the polar bears, their home and their adventures.
• Supports early language development through descriptive talk about size, position, relationships and Arctic features.
• Introduces simple mathematical concepts such as ordering by size, comparing lengths and counting the bears.
• Promotes early science understanding by sparking questions about cold habitats, animal families and how polar bears survive.

Classroom & play activity ideas:

• Create an Arctic small-world tray with white fabric, blocks, "ice"  pieces and the Polar Bear Family for open-ended storytelling.
• Use during group time to accompany information books or songs about polar animals and freezing environments.
• Invite children to order the bears from biggest to smallest, then draw a picture of the family and label each one.
• Combine with loose parts (stones, logs, cotton wool "snow" ) to encourage problem-solving as children build shelters or paths for the bears.
