Transparent linking people 36/f

Made from soft silicone, these realistic linking people consist of 6 families with 6 family members - each made from a different transparent colour (making each character completely different from the others) who can be linked together by their hands. Characters include grandpa and grandma, mum and dad, and girl and boy. Shaped with realistic features and in proportion, they can be used across the curriculum. Linking People are an excellent resource for storytelling, language development, mathematical sorting, pattern making and for their attributes (bigger/smaller, taller/shorter, older/younger). In science, they can be used to help children understand life cycles as well as on a light box to see colour mixing or the effect when reflected in a mirror. They are great for helping children develop fine motor skills and in small world play. As they are made of silicone, they are strong and easily cleaned after use in soapy water or even in the dishwasher without damage. The set comes with an information sheet with ideas in 8 languages for use across the curriculum. Supports the following areas of learning: Personal Development - PSHE Physical Development - Motor Skills Maths - Counting & Sorting Understanding the World - Colour Expressive Arts & Design - Imaginative Play - Largest Character: 100mm - Material: Silicone
