Woodland footprints - follow and identify animal tracks

This set of engaging woodland footprints is a great way for children to start their woodland explorations! Each set includes a footprint for a fox, squirrel, rabbit, frog, deer, hawk, owl and mouse. The footprint stones can be sorted by categories such as feathers, claws or diet. Children can record their findings by taking rubbings, making impressions in play clay and investigating what else they can find out about each animal. When the work is done, the children can give the footprints a good clean with soap and water before a new woodland adventure. The footprints are made from a unique stone mix and are robust enough to be used throughout an early childhood environment, both inside and outdoors. Contains eight double-sided stones (3’’ approx.). Safe for age 2+.
