About Little Locksmith Joguet Educatiu

Lo Pichon Manaire de claus es un joguet educatiu de fusta destinat als mainatges pichons. Lo joguet combina cinc jòcs de claus e sarralhas, cadun amb un tèma diferent: los animals, los fruits, lo temps, la vida marina e los veïculs. Cada cilindre de sarralha accepta pas qu'una sola clau, çò que permet als mainatges de practicar la reconeissença de las formas e de las colors. Cada còs de sarralha compòrta doas fenèstras. La fenèstra de naut mòstra d'objèctes ligats al tèma, e la fenèstra de bas mòstra una scèna correspondenta que càmbia quand se vira una ròda. Cinc libres d'imatges venon en supòrt de la narracion, e las sarralhas se pòdon penjar a la paret per l'estatjament.
