Wooden Lacing Fruit

Fruit has never looked so fun. The Wooden Lacing Fruits Set is a bright and inviting way to help children build fine motor skills through hands-on play.

This charming set includes 7 colourful wooden fruits, each made from chunky hemu wood with beautiful hand-painted detail. The pieces are easy for small hands to grip, hold and move, making them ideal for threading, sorting, naming and imaginative play. With a wooden threader, stop and lace included, children can enjoy the challenge of guiding each fruit onto the string as they build confidence and coordination.

As children thread the fruits, they can strengthen fine motor control, hand-eye coordination and concentration. The familiar fruit shapes also create lots of opportunities for conversation. Children can name each piece, talk about colours, discuss favourite foods and explore ideas around healthy eating in a natural, playful way.

The chunky design makes this set useful for both independent play and adult-led activities. It can be used for threading practice, storytelling, sorting by colour or type, or adding to a home corner or market stall set-up. It is a simple resource with lots of open-ended learning value.

A juicy little addition to any early years classroom, maths area or role play space.
