Key, bolt, latch, hook, zipper, and hook-and-loop fastener – each mechanism teaches different skills and strengthens fine motor abilities.
A sturdy snap-on textile roof and a practical rope handle ensure comfortable handling even on the go.
Includes a wooden fox figure that encourages imagination, storytelling, and social skills.
This beautifully crafted house from the Belgian brand LILLIPUTIENS offers a different activity on each side and on the roof. Children will open and close doors to different “shops” (bike shop, patisserie, jewelry store, grocery) and explore 6 fastening types: key, sliding bolt, latch, hook, zipper, and hook-and-loop fastener. The textile roof is sturdy and attached with snaps, and the house also has a rope handle for easy carrying.
The playful activity supports the development of motor skills (opening, closing, sliding, threading, inserting and removing), patience, and problem-solving. The crafty fox figurine invites storytelling and can be a great prompt for a conversation about safety. The surface is treated with safe water-based paints.
