The Woopie woodpecker – pull a bug out of the tree hole and feed the hungry chick!

This engaging, educational magnetic skill game brings your child into the natural world. The main goal is to help the adult woodpecker pull colourful bugs out of the tree holes and feed the hungry chick waiting in the trunk. The toy works by magnetism – the birds' beaks and the bugs' heads have built-in magnets, so they're easy to pick up and play runs smoothly. No batteries needed. Bright colours encourage activity, ergonomic parts suit small hands, and two woodpeckers let children play alone or with a sibling. A great alternative to screens. From 3 years.

What your child develops

• Precision. Beak to bug.
• Hand-eye coordination. Purposeful moves.
• Caring for nature. Feeding the chick.
