A pumpkin life cycle… Life of a pumpkin begins and ends, but how?..
The learning activity focuses on different pumpkin life cycle stages. Children analyse the beginning of life, patterns of growth, transformation, reproduction and re-start of the cycle. The seeding stage, sprout stage, green pumpkin and pumpkin stages.
The learning wheel is not designed with trends in mind but with functionality and quality. It contains stunning vintage illustrations, nurturing traditional art aesthetics and visual perception. The rotating mechanism inherently draws children’s attention and awakens their curiosity.

Play with wooden educational toys has a sensorial value. They have a natural grainy texture that little hands like to feel. Be it with a smooth or rough finishing, with bumps or rounded corners on the wood. Wood changes temperature, children feel it. The raw sent is pleasing to smell, “transmitting” kids closer to nature. Such unique tactile play transforms learning experiences more effectively into memory. And when needed, chances for the brain to retrieve pumpkin growth stages will be easier – in more precise blocks of information.
The wooden wheel is hand made, ethically produced and will last a lifetime.
