This unfinished wooden egg toy corresponds to the methods of Montessori and Waldorf education and promotes self-directed exploration and discovery. As an open toy, knows no limits when inventing imaginative ways of playing. The details are unpainted, so you can use the wooden figures to DIY and paint with any materials or use pyrography or decoupage. These Montessori DIY toys are a perfect birthday, Christmas, Easter gift for egg hunting or an addition to the educational collection of preschool games in a nursery learning group. In addition, our educational toys are portable and easy to store thanks to the cardboard that makes the set look like real eggs at first glance.
These artificial eggs can also be used to decorate the kitchen. The fake eggs can also help the shy chickens lay eggs in the place where you want to find them.
