Wooden Plesiosaurus Green Taiga

Plesiosaurs first appeared in the latest Triassic Period, about 203 million years ago. They had a broad flat body and short tail. Their limbs had evolved into four long flippers, which were powered by strong muscles attached to wide bony plates. The flippers made a flying movement through the water which meant that despite their large size, they were incredibly fast and agile. They breathed air, and birthed live young.

These beautiful wooden Plesiosaurus figures are handmade with love and have been developed with anatomical features of a child’s hands in mind.

They are a joy to touch and hold and have varying texture which assists in developing motor skills and allows the toy to become a guide to the world of wonder and adventure.

Playing with wooden animal figures instills the love of nature and animals while developing creativity and imagination. They are the perfect educational tool for young children and are ideal for use in Montessori and Waldorf play settings.

All of the Green Taiga toys are made from Alder wood and finished with water-based paints, linseed oil, and bio wax. All materials are of high quality and non-toxic.
