Learning Resources Jumbo Forest Animals - 5 Pieces, Ages 3+ Pretend Play Animals for Toddlers, Preschool Learning Toys, Kids Play Animal Figures, Zoo Animals

These animals are excellent in every way. My 3 year old grandson loves playing with animals just like his uncle did when he was his age. I was trying to find animals like I got 35 years ago and I was about to give up until I found this set. The animals are large just what is needed for a 3 year old's hand. They are sturdy and they stand up perfectly. They are realistic in appearance. I definitely plan to check out Learning Resources again when I am looking for animals for toddlers and preschoolers.

Great set of animals for toddler and preschool classrooms. Nice feel and very durable! Perfect for little hands!

The Forest Animals is basically a very nice toy.PROS: Nice large size animalsSoft, light, feel nice and easy to hold, quiet, unbreakable.Realistic and also good looking and colorfulAcquaints children with North American wildlife.Somewhat expensive, but was on sale and free shipping!From what I could tell, the sizes of the animals correlates well enough with the Farm Animal set, (though the domestic horse and cow are a bit small in *that* set) so you can use them together and children can learn the difference between domestic and wild animals.The main improvement I can see is to have more such animal sets! Only the bear is native to our west coast region! Would love to have a local animal set, including some such animals as raccoon, a deer family, tiny ground squirrels, elk, condor, raven, grey fox, coyote, etc. Family groups are nice, tooIMPROVED DESCRIPTION: Good! - gives the size of an animal, instead of just the box size!

I got these for my two-year-old girl for Christmas. They were absolutely great! Each animal is scaled to a different size, with the smallest one not being too small for her to play with. The moose is bigger than the bear, the bear is bigger than the fox, and so on. They seem to be sturdy and they do not look cheap. Great value! Definitely would recommend to purchase!

This is our second set of jumbo animals from Learning Resources (we have the jungle animal set- it's not so great) and I am so happy with these. I was really concerned because of the quality issues with our jungle set but my 23 month old had really loved these at our children's museum so my husband thought maybe we could try a different set and picked these.The size is great for toddlers and the owl and fox were much bigger than the picture made them look- proportional to the rest of the set but big enough for me to not have to worry about choking. The faces/paint jobs are realistic for the most part and my daughter absolutely loves playing pretend with them (we often have to take the bear with us when we run errands).Overall I'm really pleased with the quality of these, though they do still have flaws: the seams where they are put together being so obvious and the fact that you shouldn't submerge them as they have tiny holes. I would absolutely purchase this set again if something happened to our beloved bear and I would feel confident in purchasing this as a gift for someone's child.

My son got these for Christmas and likes to play with them. My only issue is they are BIG. Really, really big. I like that they are not so small that I have to worry about my next baby choking on them, but they are almost too big to play with. My son is 2 and they are so big that he has trouble holding the moose. He loves the owl and fox. The animals are good quality (although they smelled like plastic for the first few weeks but smell fine after being aired out for that long).

A little pricey for plastic animals that dont move or make sounds, but they were exactly what I was looking for. They are the hard rubbery plastic that has a little bit of give to it and no sharp points (perfect for people who are always stepping on their kids' toys). They vary in size with the large animals being quite large and the small ones not too small (Im not good at guessing sizes). They look pretty realistic, as opposed to cheap plastic toys that look like some kind of mutant.

My grandaughter always loves these realistically molded plastic animals. I believe we have them all now, they are waterproof so no water leaks in to get moldy. These are larger than most its a handful for each animal for a toddler,the bear and moose are extra large in proportion to the owl, like real life,very good quality. These are great tub toys, pool toys or just playing on a table or floor toys, its a toy to show children exactly what these animals really look like and this type of toy is great for their imaginations. Children need more toys without batteries and hypnotizing them to the t,v.
