Land Down Under TOOB - 11 Figurines of Australian Animals - Educational Toy Figures For Boys, Girls, and Kids Ages 3+

I bought these as teaching aids to help my kids learn about different animals around the world. Concepts are so much easier for them to grasp if they can hold and play with the animals they're leaning about, rather than just reading about them in a book. The animals are well crafted, the pieces have been nicely painted and they're fairly detailed which helps them look more realistic - the snake has scales, the Cockatoo has feathers ridges, and others have fur. They also have their names on the underside in case you need help identifying what they are. Most of the pieces in this set stand up on their own fairly well, although some are a little wobbly. The only one there's a problem with is the Cockatoo - his feet are bent a bit too much and he likes to fall forward instead of standing up. He's also a little large to fit easily in the tube too and has to be wriggled in. The only thing I find a little cumbersome is the tube itself. While it's great for storing, it's compact size and odd shape makes it difficult to get the animals in and out - the rope handle also seems to get in the way. Other than the somewhat troublesome tube, the animals in this set are great and I will definitely be buying more of these collections.

Perfect for a kangaroo habitat project. My son had to have at least 3 different animals that could co-habitate with a kangaroo. This set had enough to fulfill his project requirements.

We love the safari limited brand for the nice details (also, they write the names on the bottom of all their animals, so if your child is like my son and wants to learn the whole animal kingdom this will help you know the right terminology). We usually get our toobs at the craft store but they don’t carry this down under toob so took the risk and ordered off amazon. It’s perfect. This toob has animals that seem particularly well detailed.

Perfect for a school project/diorama! Just the right size for a shoe box sized landscape

I bought this for my great nephew's 2nd birthday. He has several varieties of the toob characters. My niece said that the Safari Ltd. quality is better than other brands. Just be aware that the pieces are small, so know thy child!

Excellent quality, using this and others for teaching geography units, and expect them to last a very long time. Would be great if it came with names for each animal or object to save a bit of time looking them up. Don't really need it for this one :) but for some of the others that contain trees or reptiles. Aside from that, a great buy.

My 2 1/2 year old grandson loves animals. I searched for Australian animals and to get the 4 to 5 inch animals from Australian was affordable but the shipping was like $42.00. The animals I received are small but he loves them. He now has to have a small suitcase to transport his animals home after a day at "Nomi's." He gets very upset if his parents forget to bring his animals when he comes over everyday to stay with me. He will grab 4 or 5 when he goes home if his suitcase is not here. So happy he is happy. He can name them all.

I've never met a kid who didn't love Toob animals. Glad to add more variety to our collection with this set.

Soggetti molto graziosi, rispetto ad altre serie hanno il vantaggio di essere raggruppati per continente o habitat comune, ma sono molto piccoli in senso assoluto, e la scala perciò non può essere rispettata (canguro e pappagallo hanno quasi le stesse dimensioni), Tuttavia gli animali sono realizzati bene a ai bambini di 2.5/3 anni piacciono molto.

Kids love it! Great for my class, about Australia.

Perfect

this toob is quite nice like the rainforest one. I'm sad with the aborigin not being there but otherwise it's okay.By the way, i couldn't understand any name of any creature in both the tubes and the toobs so i took a marker pen and wrote down their names on their bodies.

Excelente calidad, precio alto. Utiles para jugar y clasificar.
