The Buttonworks Australia Australian Heads & Tails Game features beautifully illustrated native animals split across matching timber tiles, giving kids a simple and engaging way to pair each animal back together.
It is easy to understand, but there is plenty of learning happening while they play. Matching the pieces can help build sorting, observation, fine motor and early strategy skills, while the animal illustrations add a fun nature-learning element too.
Each set is made from sustainably sourced Australian timber, so the natural grain and colour will vary from tile to tile. Packed in a handy drawstring bag, it is easy to store at home or throw into the caravan, car or travel bag for quiet-time fun on the go.
