Has anyone seen a blue and yellow snail? With this garden-themed Seek and Find game, children aged 2 years and up will develop their sense of observation through play. Their objective: to find the insect indicated on the card amongst the pile of other insects. This educational wooden game consists of: 42 insects (7 caterpillars, 7 ladybirds, 7 snails, 7 beetles, 7 spiders and 7 flies), 42 round cardboard cards and 1 ultra-practical cotton bag to easily store and transport the game! Just like a board game, this Seek and Find game can be played with two people: the adult will verbally describe the shape and colour of an insect, then the child must find it in the pile. Several children can also play together, by either taking turns or working together to find the little creatures! In “independent” mode, your little one can draw a card and take their time to find the correct animal. The main advantage of this observation game is its modularity: the pieces get switched around with every round so your child will not get bored or have chance to memorise the locations of the elements. Furthermore, adults can vary the level of difficulty by spreading the pieces out more or less on the table, asking children to grab the piece in question with their opposite hand, or limiting their number of tries! An educational game that evolves according to the pace of younger and older children. Each piece boasts unique characteristics (shapes and colours): be careful not to confuse them! The garden is an environment conducive to exploration, curiosity and adventure: the little creatures always amuse and surprise children. This is why we have chosen to put these insects in the spotlight in this Seek and Find game. It promotes observation, visual acuity, fine motor skills and colour recognition: ideal for nursery-age children and up. This observation game is made of FSC™-certified wood and cardboard. It is part of the Janod educational range, developed in collaboration with a school teacher to ensure the best possible fit with the learning and curriculum at each level.
