"The Animal Kumi-Kit/Educational Wooden Toy"

Educational Toy

"The Animal Kumi-Kit" is a wooden puzzle with a bilingual picture book and song. It promotes the recycling natural beech wood, aiding in the protection of the primeval forest of Uonuma City, Niigata, Japan. With limited natural resources, we should enlighten any form of wisdom by utilizing natural wood to be passed down over generations. To learn through play with good toys is important in childhood development, and fun at any ages. The project hopes to keep our daily lives sustainable, eco-friendly, and pleasant even in times of hardship like today. Making the most out of strong beech wood leads to further efforts in forest preservation.
