Try Playsilks in the Water!
Put your Playsilks in water to make bubbles.
A silk & wood childhood
Play is the world of the child. Through play the child learns and discovers their inner selves and the outer world around them!
Open-ended, loose parts essential toy
Children naturally engage in deep, meaningful play when provided with simple, open-ended toys, like Playsilks.
I was so disappointed in these figurines. You can see the hot glue spilling out at the base there the characters are glues. Some of the edges aren’t rounded enough and have rough wood sticking out and they are printed and not painted. They seem very cheaply made.
Beautiful, well-made figures that are the perfect size for play and being portable.
This item is beautifully made. It is a quality toy and my kids love playing with it.
Thank you for the review and we hope your kids enjoy many more years of imaginative play with the sweet Wizard of Oz Wooden Characters! :)
I'm so excited to have this brand new set of play things, I can barely wait to give it as a gift!
