Wee Find: Woody the Sheep Knitting Game
If you're looking a beautifully-designed gift for a small child, look no further than Les Jouets Libres Shifumi Game from Mama Shelter.
Made in France, Woody the Sheep is a knitting game and at 24€, it's a quite a good buy. The combination of great design, beautiful timber and natural wool yarn is also a bonus, as it's the kind of toy that parents don't mind lying around in any room of the home.
The eco-friendly kit comes with two balls of chunky wool yarn and a knitting needle, so the child needs to thread the yarn through the holes in Woody the Sheep, and create a beautifully woven design.
It's recommended for ages four and over, and it's the perfect educational toy for practicing patience, creativity and fine motor skills. And don't forget, it looks pretty good, too.
