About Little Locksmith Educativt Spillzeug

Little Locksmith ass e pädagogescht Spillzeug aus Holz fir kleng Kanner. D'Spillzeug kombinéiert fënnef Sätz vu Schlësselen a Schlässer, jidder mat engem anere Thema: Déieren, Uebst, Wieder, Marineliewen a Gefierer. All Schlosszylinder akzeptéiert nëmmen ee Schlëssel, sou datt d'Kanner d'Erkennung vu Formen a Faarwen üben. All Schlosskierper huet zwee Fënsteren. D'iewescht Fënster weist Objeten, déi mam Thema verbonne sinn, an d'ënnescht Fënster weist eng passend Szen, déi sech ännert, wann e Rad gedréit gëtt. Fënnef Bildbicher ënnerstëtzen d'Erzielen, an d'Schlässer kënnen un enger Wand fir d'Opbewaren opgehaange ginn.
