Dive into the fascinating world of whales with Safari Ltd. Whale TOOB®! This rich collection features 10 of the most remarkable and detailed whale species, capturing the essence of these majestic ocean giants. Whales, the largest animals on Earth, are descended from land-dwelling mammals that ventured into the sea around 50 million years ago. Divided into Mysticetes (baleen whales) and Odontocetes (toothed whales), these incredible creatures have adapted in various ways to thrive in their ocean habitats. The hand-painted figurines in this TOOB are not only beautiful but educational and scientifically accurate. You'll find representations of various whale species, each with unique features, like the blue whale's enormous size and the humpback's distinctive tail. The set includes a range of whales from 2.5 to 4 inches long, all presented in a portable TOOB® that measures a little larger than a standard American ruler. Created with high-quality, non-toxic, BPA-free materials, these figures are perfect for children ages 3 and up. They can be used as Montessori toys for interactive lessons, as engaging additions to a classroom, or simply as delightful play companions. Whether you're introducing your child to marine biology or looking for a unique gift for a whale enthusiast, the Safari Ltd. Whale TOOB offers an unforgettable exploration of these amazing creatures. Let the wonders of the deep blue sea come to life in your hands, and set sail on a marine adventure like no other!
