The Papo African Lion gives children a powerful character for savannah stories and wildlife play. It can lead an imagined pride, patrol a grassland scene or become part of a collection of animals from across the natural world.
A child can create a watering-hole meeting, plan a journey across the savannah or tell a quieter story about the lion resting and watching its surroundings. Different playmates and settings can give the same figure a new role each time.
Build a savannah adventure
The African lion is a natural starting point for talking about habitats and animal behaviour while children play. They can decide where the lion travels, which animals it encounters and how the group responds to a change in the landscape.
Adding other figures helps children expand the scene and make connections between species. Choosing positions, arranging a play space and moving the lion through each part of the story support hands-on play, language and imaginative thinking.
