Fossils inspire childrens imagination and excite young learners
They will delight in discovering and examining this set of eight attractive, realistic and tactile specimens, including ammonite, clam shell, fern leaf, preserved leaves, sea urchin, sharks tooth, shrimp and trilobite
Made from a unique stone mix, they are robust enough to be used throughout an early years setting, both in an indoor and outdoor environment
Designed to fit snugly in small inquisitive hands (8-9cm), these fossils have huge potential for discovery, storytelling and provide a great springboard to further activities
Go on a fossil hunt, discover them buried outside or in a sand tray, dig them up and clean them off
Record whats been found by taking a wax rubbing and/or making a fossil imprint in modelling clay
They are also great for non-fiction research, the gathering of evidence and the reaching of conclusions
The fossils can be used in further creative ways through the making of fossil gardens, displays of rubbings and clay imprints and role-play
These fossils are an ideal addition to any dinosaur theme and can be used in endless small-world and role-play activities
