A very well loved set

We’ve loved using this over the past couple of years for colour-sorting, pincer-practice, and the bees get a lot of use in free play.

Plan Toys Bee Hives - Buzzing

We have this set ourselves and both my 4 and 2 year olds play with it every week.

It’s made from good quality wood and painted well. The bee's are super robust and it’s even better that you can now buy replacement bee’s.

We have just purchased a second set for our secret santa!

A very loved toy

We absolutely love this toy! After my daughter had surgery on her thumb she needed more help working on fine motor skills and these were a favourite for that. The quality and feel of these products are amazing and definitely worth the price.
