Description
Publisher's Description of Half Animal - Platypus
The platypus is a fascinating mammal that lay eggs. Their webbed feet
make them great swimmers and their sturdy claws allow them to dig! As a
HALFTOY, you can open its magnetic shell to find the skeleton, a 3-piece
bone puzzle. Each animal figure comes with a diorama that can be linked
to other dioramas in the HALF ANIMAL collection. Collect them all and
build a scenic animal world!
Category Description for Half Toys Themed Play Sets
Constructed from quality, nontoxic plastic, this collection of “half-toys” provides unique tactile play and fidget experience! Each magnetic outer shell is easily separated to view and remove the inner skeleton. For an added experience, the animals and dinos, have legs that slide in and out! Once you are done exploring, set the skeleton inside one of the halves and lay the other on top. The magnets connect smoothly. Your animal is now ready to play! Includes cardstock pieces to create a habitat diorama and instructions. A fascinating 3D puzzle to help foster essential skills such as problem-solving, fine motor development, and role-playing.
