Waldorf Family Wooden Life Cycles Wheel

The Waldorf Family Life Cycles Wheel is a circular wooden block, decorated with a rainbow design that shows the life cycles of a sheep, butterfly, sunflower, caterpillar and swallow. The different colours help show the progression through the seasons and the different types of environments we experience throughout the year.

Handmade from sustainably sourced PEFC approved wood, this board is both eco-friendly and plastic free. The detailed illustrations by Stephanie Green are a brilliant way to introduce children to life cycles and allow them to engage with the natural world around them. It is an easy way to explain the processes of life and the things humans, plants and animals go through throughout the year. Watch eggs hatch, lambs grow to sheep or even caterpillars transform to butterflies.

With all of its vibrant colours, this makes for a beautiful display piece, with a naturally finished reverse side that shows off all of the lovely wood grains. This board has been designed to last a lifetime, making for a great gift that will be enjoyed for generations to come. Team it up with some toy animals to make your own life cycle story or use it as a background for imaginative play.
