Seymour The Counting Shapes Sea Turtle

Help Seymour's baby sea turtles move safely from the nest to the ocean in this engaging, eco-friendly learning adventure! Children will enjoy sorting each baby turtle by shape and plugging them onto Seymour's shell for a ride through early learning fun. As little ones match shapes and colours, they'll also be developing key skills in counting, patterning, and fine motor control. The baby turtles are colour-coded and uniquely shaped to encourage visual discrimination and classification. Made with recycled plastic and paired with an Earth-friendly activity guide, this set not only promotes early educational development but also introduces children to environmental stewardship in a hands-on way. Seymour opens up for easy storage-simply tuck all the baby turtles inside his shell to keep play areas tidy, just like we want our oceans to be! The tactile nature of the pieces makes them ideal for toddlers, while the vibrant sea theme creates an imaginative setting that enhances engagement. Whether played with at home or in an early years classroom, Seymour and his turtle friends offer a playful introduction to early STEM, conservation, and cognitive development.
