Do you often find your kids go for the simplest toys, toys that allow them to use their own imaginations? I do and I encourage that because after all, given a chance, kids can make a game out of anything at all. That’s why I’m so loving this new toy that is really simple and basic but has bags of play potential. It’s beautifully designed but there is nothing fancy or over the top about it. It’s just a few painted sheets of wood held together by a rubber band, thats really it! Created by a London design duo and called Flat Zoo, these wood sheets can be paired up 2 at a time to create different animals and the rest is up to your kids imagination. I don’t think the toy is for sale yet but head to Yang: Ripol the creators, to find out more.
