Tender Leaf Toys Bear Tales is a multicolour wooden playset crafted from sustainable rubberwood for children aged 3 and up. The set features a solid bear family—Beryl the mum, Bobby the dad and Cub the baby—finished in soft, contemporary colours that allow the natural wood grain to remain visible. Designed for open-ended role play, the figures integrate well with other wooden toys such as dolls houses, the Rosewood Cottage and Sailaway Boat, and come packaged in an illustrated colour box.
Advantages
The rubberwood construction provides durable, stable pieces that are smooth to the touch and suitable for preschool play. Non-toxic paints and formaldehyde-free wood meet safety expectations for young children. The compact, solid figures encourage imaginative storytelling and social interaction while supporting fine motor skill development through handling and placement. The set’s neutral, stylish finish makes it easy to combine with other play environments and themes.

How to use
Introduce the Bear Tales figures into open-ended play scenarios by placing them in a dolls house, toy boat, or any play scene. Encourage children to create short stories, assign roles, and move the figures to act out events. Supervise younger children during play to ensure safe handling and to support language and social interaction. After play, store the figures in their box or a dry toy container to protect the finish and maintain piece integrity.
Usage recommendations
For longevity, clean the wooden figures with a dry or slightly damp cloth and avoid soaking. Keep away from prolonged direct sunlight or extreme humidity to preserve the wood and finish. Combine the set with other Tender Leaf Toys items for expanded storytelling and layered play scenarios.
