Mix & Match - Fruits and Vegetables - Set of 28

14 pairs of smooth and tactile beech plywood square tiles, each colour printed on one side with beautiful clear photographic images of real fruit and vegetables. The chunky tiles are easy for small hands to grip, rotate and turn over.

This versatile set provides endless opportunities for exploring the colourful world of fruit and vegetables and can be used in a number of ways:

1. As a matching game - turn all the tiles face up and match the whole fruit / vegetable with its corresponding slice image.
2. As a memory game - turn all the tiles face down and try to remember where the matching fruit or vegetable pairs are located.
