Little Baby Learns: Animals is the ideal early learning set for toddlers. With a board book and 12 shaped play pieces to use inside, it is a fun way to introduce young children to the world around them. Children can learn about animals from different habitats as they go through the book and find the press-out pieces. Each of the 12 play pieces matches an image on the page and fits securely into the die-cut spaces, but can also be used separately as flash cards. This book encourages fine motor skills and problem-solving, as well as teaching core vocabulary. The book is attached to a cased board and the pieces enclosed in a clamshell so they can be stored easily making this a great gift to take on the go.
