Find the right spot for your safari photos!

______

3, 2, 1 and pose! These safari animals love to model for your camera! Can you get the animals in the picture-perfect position for the snapshot? Don’t forget the lion doesn’t like water, the elephant can’t climb over the rocks and the giraffes are too tall to fit underneath the trees.

A 2-in-1 learning game for toddlers: puzzle or play and let your imagination go wild! Learn about shapes and concepts as left, right, on top, in front and behind. Sort shapes and follow the path. Ready to have a wild time?

How to Play:

Each animal base has a special shape, so they can only enter the gameboard from a specific corner. The animals can then slide along the paths of the board. Just this element makes Safari Park Jr. a fun fidget toy for little ones, even if they don’t use the challenge cards.

However, it's the challenge cards which bring all the thinking skills into play. The object is to move the animals along the grooves in the board until you can match the picture on the challenge card. STARTER challenges incorporate one animal at a time; the EXPERT level incorporates multiple animals.

The extra challenge comes in because the animals can only move in specific ways. For example, the giraffes cannot fit under the trees or the rainbow, so they have go across the middle of the board rather than around, to get to the other side. The lion cannot turn to go onto the path that leads across the board through the watering hole, so he always has to go around. The elephant is too wide to go between the rocks or the grass, so he also has to cross the board to get to the other side.
