Felt Planets

Take a trip to the stars (without leaving your setting) with our Felt Planets set! Perfect for immersive play setups, these 9 vibrant felt balls represent the planets in our solar system, bringing the wonders of space to life. Each planet is as unique as its real-world counterpart, with soft, tactile felt material adding a sensory element to small world and science play. These planets are an ideal addition to our Felt Space Mats and Felt Stars, creating a stellar environment for exploring the cosmos. Whether used for sensory exploration, small world play, or introducing early science concepts, these felt planets provide a hands-on way to learn about the solar system, space exploration, and planetary science. The natural texture of the felt is soothing to touch, while the bright colours engage visual senses, fostering colour recognition, sorting, and categorisation skills. Children can imagine astronauts exploring each planet, create their own space missions, or sort planets by size or colour, all while developing fine motor skills and cognitive abilities. Great for role play, scientific discovery, or just plain space-faring fun, these felt planets will keep young learners' imaginations soaring high!
