The Bug Hotel
The Bug Hotel - A fantastic nature inspired toy made to resemble the insect hotels that we create to sustain our wildlife and mini-beasts.
This is a wonderful educational toy that teaches children the names of all the beautiful insects they can find around them in nature in the back garden or at the park. It comes presented in a box with a sliding lid which is illustrated just like a real-life bug hotel. Inside are the wooden bug shapes and there is also a shadow of each bug illustrated on the display box for further shape-sorting fun!
The pieces of beautifully painted wood replicating the bug guests are a snail, butterfly, ladybird, moth, caterpillar, worm, spider, bumble bee, grass hopper, fly, stag beetle, dragon fly and scarab beetle.
This toy box supports creative learning and story telling whilst creating their own nature haven! With the coral pieces you can make a 3 dimensional ocean world for your fish families to live in - all contained in a beautifully illustrated canvas bag to keep the pieces safe between inspired rock pool creations!
Why we love it: It supports creative learning and story-telling, inspired learning about the world around us and conservation of our British wildlife. It's a great play and display toy too, looking fabulous in a bedroom after play.

My darling son is obsessed with bugs. So I decided to get him the bug hotel. He absolutely loves it. The quality is very high.
Fab wooden toy. Made well. Lots of learning with naming insects to fitting puzzle pieces & using dexterity for little ones.
Yet another beautiful toy from Tender Leaf. The bugs are all well made, colourful and tactile. This will be great for learning and play - whether that's messy or going on our own bug hunt. Also looks so pretty you won't want to hide it away when it isn't in use!
