Description
Features five chicks in colourful shells. Discover sounds as each chick cheeps when pressed down into its shell. With their cute faces and bright colours, shells are easy for little hands to pick up and fit together.
Spinning: Attach the train engine to the base and push down on the driver chick to spin the Ferris wheel. Watch as the pods with their passengers swing and sway their way around.
Driving: Unhook the engine, unclip the pods from the Ferris wheel. Load the cheeping chirpy chicks into their carriages then hook them all up to form a train with a swinging, ringing stack.

What our experts think
The 2-in-1 train has lots of different features to engage little ones and encourage their learning through colour sorting, problem-solving and imaginative play.
Working out how to move the carriages from the wheel to connect to the train challenged the children’s logical thinking skills as well as their dexterity and hand-eye coordination. Matching the colours of the eggs together encouraged colour recognition and was fantastic for getting the children naming and discussing different colours.
After realising the chicks cheep when pressed, there were lots of smiles and they enjoyed experimenting with this, which is a great way to teach little ones about cause and effect.
