The Schleich Starter Set Africa 42721 gives children a group of wildlife figures with which to begin African animal adventures. It can form the centre of a savannah scene, a nature expedition or a story about animals sharing the same landscape.
Children can arrange the figures to create their own setting, then move them through changing events. The animals might be travelling towards water, exploring open ground or meeting as part of an invented wildlife story. Each play session can take a different direction because children decide the characters and action.
Create a savannah story
A themed animal set can encourage curiosity about habitats and the natural world. Children may compare the figures, group them in different ways and talk about how animals live in varied environments. These ideas emerge naturally while they build and act out their own scenes.
The set also works as a first step into collecting animal figures. It provides a shared starting point for small-world play and can be combined with other figures if a child wants to expand the landscape. Moving the animals, setting up scenes and retelling adventures supports imagination and storytelling.
