Each measuring 22cm in height, 20cm in width, and 18cm in depth, our set includes one felt cave and one felt igloo, offering a cosy, inviting environment for small world animals, figures, or fairy folk.

Made from soft, durable felt, these items are perfect for creating imaginative play scenes.

Whether it’s used to shelter woodland creatures in the cave or house Arctic animals in the igloo, this set significantly increases play potential, allowing children to immerse themselves in diverse narratives and role play scenarios.

The felt cave and igloo are also ideal for integrating into a range of themed environments, especially when paired with our Small World Ice Scene Set. The flexible nature of felt adds versatility, making these pieces easy to move, arrange, and incorporate into various imaginative setups.

Our set promotes language development, creativity, and problem-solving as children create stories and scenarios around the cave and igloo.
