A must for all budding palaeontologists, these wonderful, tactile dinosaur bones are guaranteed to inspire and excite. Bury them in sand or soil, place them in the water tray or leave them outside to be discovered. Once unearthed, they will instantly appeal to children’s natural instincts to investigate, sort, order, and compare. These playful processes provide the ideal opportunity to introduce and practise early maths language in an engaging and relevant way.
Durable enough to be used throughout an early years setting including outdoors and safe for use with toddlers, the set includes twelve dinosaur bones in four different lengths ranging from 60 to 120mm. Great for heuristic play and for use in treasure baskets, the Dinosaur Bones Discovery Set is a fantastic addition to our Dinosaur Bones Match and Measure range. Age 2+.

These are indestructible. The children have used them everywhere from the paint area to the mud kitchen. Our youngest children love the feel of them are will carry them around. The older children challenge each other to see who has the most or a better challenge is how long can the make their bone trail. We have the cards to match and the visual guide is helpful for self correcting. The cards are also well made and can survive the mud and water areas.
