Carved Wooden Animals from Kenya
12 pieces (6 pairs) of African animal carvings
C677
$13.99
Made in KENYA
Children of all ages will intuitively recognize the beauty of these miniature works of art. Wood workers in Wamunyu, Kenya, a town known throughout Africa for fine wood work, carve and paint these animals by hand.
The smooth wood is a pleasure for small hands to hold. Use for matching and naming games, or include in a polishing activity.
The set includes two each of six recognizable African animals (12 pieces in all). Sizes vary from 2" to 3". Selections may vary from those shown. Ages 3+.
Please note: Because they are hand-carved, some pieces may not stand up. If standing is important, such as for a diorama, an adult may sand feet flat. Please expect slight variations in carving and paint, as with any handmade item.

These are fun to line up and look at. They are not for rough play. The handiwork is very nice.

These are beautiful, but fragile. The head broke off of the rhinoceros when I dropped it on a vinyl floor. I bought this set for an object-object matching exercise. Since they are hand carved, the pieces are similar in size but not exactly the same. Also, the color of the wood varies somewhat from piece to piece. It would qualify as an advanced matching since it is a bit tricky.

Carved Wooden Animals from Kenya 12 pieces (6 pairs) of African animal carvings
I bought these to start teaching my son the names of some exotic animals and for matching exercises. Some of the animals were adorable, and I liked the rustic look of the carved wood figures. Obviously, the price is great, too! Unfortunately, however, some of the animals weren't really recognizable, and thus, not suitable for naming work, so we ended up sending these back.
