Animal Dominoes - Wildlife Game Vibrant Animal Designs in a Portable Wooden Case (1+ Years)

For a child from 12 months, the Animal Dominoes set is built for early play rather than strict domino rules. It has 28 wooden tiles with woodland animal designs, sized for small hands, and is listed for ages 1 to 7. The suggested age range covers toddlers through to early school years, so one set carries a child from simple matching games up to proper counting and pattern play as they grow.

Yes, this set is made from child-safe materials and listed as suitable from 12 months. At this age children will not play formal dominoes, they will more likely match animals, stack tiles, or sort by picture, which still builds concentration and fine motor skills. As they approach 2 to 3 years old they can move on to simple matching and turn-taking games with the same set.

The set is suggested for ages 1 through 7, but real matching and counting play tends to suit children from around 2 to 3 upward, once they can recognise repeated pictures and take turns. Younger toddlers under 2 will mostly explore the tiles through handling and sorting. Because the range runs to age 7, older children in the same family can play a more structured matching game with the identical set.

You get 28 wooden domino tiles printed with animal designs, plus a wooden storage case sized 21cm by 11cm by 6cm to keep them together. The set arrives in Jaques signature boxing with a hand-tied ribbon, so it is ready to give as a gift without extra wrapping. Nothing else needs buying, the tiles and case are the whole game.

Yes, it includes a dedicated wooden storage case measuring 21cm x 11cm x 6cm, separate from the outer Jaques presentation box. This means the 28 tiles have a proper home rather than loose pieces rattling in a cardboard box, so the set stays tidy between uses and is easy to pack for travel or visits to grandparents.

Jaques design this set around pattern matching, counting, and concentration, since children match repeated animal images across tiles rather than plain numbers. Playing with others also encourages cooperative play, sharing, and turn-taking. Handling the wooden tiles works on fine motor skills too, so the same 28 pieces are doing several jobs at once beyond simple entertainment.

It suits a first-time player well because the suggested age starts at 12 months and the animal pictures make matching intuitive before a child can read numbers. The wooden storage case and ribboned Jaques box also make it easy to hand over as a ready-to-play gift. As the child grows toward age 7, the same tiles support more advanced matching games, so it is not outgrown quickly.

The wooden storage case measures 21cm x 11cm x 6cm, compact enough for a shelf, a games drawer, or a bag for travel. It holds all 28 tiles, so there is nothing extra to carry or lose separately. This makes it practical for taking to grandparents' houses or on journeys where space is limited.
