Collection: Westcoast Animal Collection
Introducing the West Coast Animals Collection – A Multi-Sensory Learning Experience!
Explore the beauty and wildlife of British Columbia with our brand-new West Coast Animals Collection, designed for early childhood education (ECE) and elementary learning environments across the province. These handmade, multi-sensory educational play tools bring black bears, grizzly bears, owls, wolves, and more into children's hands, fostering curiosity, creativity, and connection to the natural world.
Each piece is crafted with sustainable, Canadian bio-based resin and designed for hands-on exploration in play centers, sensory bins, light tables, water tables, kinetic sand, and playdough. To make these invitations to play even richer, we've carefully selected upcycled and natural materials—saving educators time and money while providing children with a complete, open-ended play experience.
