About Little Locksmith Edukativna igračka

Mali Bravar je drvena edukativna igračka za malu decu. Igračka kombinuje pet setova ključeva i katanaca, svaki sa drugom temom: životinje, voće, vreme, morski svet i vozila. Svaki cilindar brave prihvata samo jedan ključ, tako da deca vežbaju prepoznavanje oblika i boja. Svako telo brave ima dva prozorčeta. Gornji prozorčić prikazuje predmete povezane sa temom, a donji prozorčić prikazuje odgovarajuću scenu koja se menja kada se okrene točkić. Pet slikovnica podržava pripovedanje priča, a katanci se mogu okačiti na zid radi odlaganja.
