The Forest Friends bowling set by Egmont Toys turns a great classic into a gentle game specially designed for young children. Five forest animals take the place of traditional skittles. They wait patiently for the ball to arrive and topple over one after the other.
The child begins by lining up the animals on the floor. Then they roll the soft ball towards them. Each throw becomes a new chance to try, aim and start again. The skittles also make a slight sound when they fall. This little sound detail makes the game even more fun and sparks little ones' curiosity.
Thanks to its fabric design, this bowling set is perfectly suited to indoor play. The ball is light and the skittles fall without much noise. The child can play in their bedroom or the living room without damaging the floor and without any risk of getting hurt on hard parts.
What's more, each animal has a weighted base. The skittles stay nicely upright once set in place. Their embroidered faces, varied textures and pretty natural colours also give the whole set plenty of charm. After the game, the animals can even join the child's other soft toys and take part in their stories.
This Forest Friends bowling set encourages hand-eye coordination. It also promotes motor skills, concentration and precision of movement. Game after game, the child learns to adjust the direction and strength of their throw. They can play alone, with their parents or with other children.
Both a game of skill and a lovely object for a bedroom, this fabric bowling set makes a great gift idea for a first birthday.
