Small World Play
by Tender Leaf Toys
A tiny wooden animal for small world play, made for the child who gives every creature a role.
Some days the hedgehog is part of an animal world on the floor. Other days it is carried over to the couch while the story keeps going in a quieter way. Eventually, without anyone really noticing, it becomes the tiny animal your little one asks for again — the one that follows the story out of the play space and towards bedtime.

Buying guidance
Who this product is particularly well suited to.
Best for little ones aged 12 months+ who enjoy open-ended animal play, especially if you want one small character that can join the pretend worlds they already make. Its 5 × 3.6 × 2 cm size suits a child who likes tiny animals with big roles, and it is a gentle option when you are choosing for a child whose play setup you do not know.
12 months+
5 × 3.6 × 2 cm
Product overview
Children often choose one little character and make it matter more than the rest. At first, the hedgehog may simply sit among the animals. Soon it has somewhere to go, someone to find, or a reason to hide at the edge of the story. Before long, it is the one your child looks for again, because the play is not finished just because the scene has been packed away.
Product details
That changing role helps the same little animal stay interesting across many rounds of play.
It gives your little one a clear animal character without telling them how the story must go.
A small figure earns its place when it keeps being chosen, not just opened once.
