## Description

Learning Resources Backyard Bugs (Set of 72) : desertcart.co.uk: Toys & Games

Review: Very good for teaching - A well thought out and well described description. I received exactly what I ordered per item specifications. Very well packaged and protected from external or transit damage. The product was made very well using appropriate materials. You will definitely receive value for money. Although the item is cheap you get more than what you pay for in quality and durability. The item is very sturdy and robust.Keeps the children entertained for hours. A great learning tool for both the children and parents! I tend to always stick to one particular type of brand and this item is a fraction of the price but a very good competitor. You wont be dissappointed with this purchase.
Review: Wonderful, but fairly small. - Wonderful for sorting/role play/whatever your toddler fancies! My daughter (nearly two) will play with these on and off all day. We got some coloured bowls for sorting them and those went down a treat. However, they do easily get lost down the back of sofas etc and could fit into a mouth, so you need to keep a fairly close eye if you expect to pack up all 72 at the end. Well made, lots of detail and they feel nice to the touch (fairly soft, a little bit of give rather than being rigid or sharp)
