Three families of felt babies for the nature table, and the two staged worlds they move into. Acorn, leaf and honeybee babies are the inhabitants children carry in a pocket and tuck into a basket. Garden of the Moon and Hobbit Hollow are where they go. Bought together they give a room both halves of the same play: the small figures, and somewhere for them to live.

Ordering details.

Arrives in 3 to 4 weeks. Tell us your in-hand date when you request a quote and we will schedule around it.

Shipped from Los Angeles or directly from the maker, with tracking when it leaves. Multi-classroom orders can be split to individual sites or consolidated to one receiving dock.

  • The set includes Leaf Babies, whose babies lift out of their leaves and are close enough to the small-parts limit that they carry the warning. The other pieces clear it: the acorn babies are 4.3 in with a fixed cap, the honeybee peg baby is 5 in, and both mats are felted with nothing loose.

Approved accounts confirm with a 50 percent deposit. We accept check, ACH, and card, and new accounts may prepay until terms are approved. Pricing on your quote is held for 45 days.

  • Net 60 for approved districts, against a purchase order
  • Purchase orders accepted from independent schools, with terms set at approval
  • Exemption certificates accepted from tax-exempt institutions in all 50 states
  • Availability and lead time confirmed on every quote before the PO is submitted

Everything your accounts payable team needs, provided on request and usually returned within two business days: W-9, resale certificate, and a completed vendor form if your district uses one.

Spot clean with a damp cloth. Do not soak or machine wash, since wet felt shrinks and will not recover. Air dry flat. Missing or damaged pieces happen in busy classrooms. Email educators@mytoywagon.com and we will sort out a replacement.
