Wild Animal Families: Penguins & Lions

Little builders can create two distinct animal habitats with this 10-piece DUPLO set featuring four adorable animal figures. The grasslands scene includes a lioness and her cub who can play peekaboo games, while the arctic environment features a penguin slide where the parent penguin and chick can enjoy sliding adventures.

The set develops fine motor skills as toddlers construct the brick-built habitats and arrange the animal families. Through caring for the baby animals, children naturally learn to recognise differences between big and small creatures, and explore concepts of hot and cold environments through the contrasting habitats.

Educational Value

Role-play opportunities encourage social and emotional development as children express their caring nature while looking after the parent and baby animal pairs. The simple building process supports early construction skills while the animal figures inspire imaginative storytelling and creative play scenarios.

The completed model measures 13 cm high, 22 cm wide and 7 cm deep, making it an ideal size for small hands to manipulate and explore. Suitable for ages 2 and up, this set provides a foundation for learning through hands-on play with familiar animal families.
