Dice rattle, magnets click, and a dinosaur scene fills the tin lid.

🎲 Builds patience with Dinosaurs & Ladders and Tic Tac Toe, played with the included dice and magnetic counters
🦕 Invites creativity through a magnetic dinosaur scene to decorate with pop-out pieces
🔤 Practises letters with a word search of 17 dinosaur words, worked with the dry-wipe pen
🧳 Travels easily in a compact tin that slips into a bag or glovebox
♻️ Resets in seconds because the word search wipes clean and the pieces live in the drawstring bag
🤫 Stays quiet with no batteries, so it suits cafés, car seats and waiting rooms

The Educator's Note

Dinosaurs & Ladders and Tic Tac Toe give children a first taste of turn-taking, counting along a path and simple strategy, all in games short enough for a 3 year old to finish.
The word search adds a literacy challenge that older children can do alone, so the tin stays useful as they move from 3 towards 7 rather than being outgrown in a year.
Magnetic pieces that live in a drawstring bag and a dry-wipe word search mean play resets in seconds. It's quiet, battery-free and compact enough to take to appointments, cafés and long drives.

Four games live inside one dinosaur tin, so a café table, car trip or waiting room becomes a play space in seconds. Dice, magnetic pieces, a dry-wipe pen and a drawstring bag are all included.

Dinosaurs & Ladders and Tic Tac Toe build turn-taking and counting from 3 years. The word search and scene decorating suit 5 to 7 year olds growing in early reading and drawing confidence.

Also available in a great value bundle

This tin suits families who want a compact game that works across a few ages and a few settings.

Dinosaur-obsessed 3 to 4 year olds learning to count squares, roll a dice and wait for their turn
5 to 7 year olds who are starting to read and enjoy hunting for words in a puzzle
Parents of two children a couple of years apart, who need something both can play at the same table
Anyone packing for a long drive, holiday trip or a café catch-up and wanting a small, quiet activity
Gift buyers looking for a birthday present or Christmas stocking filler for a dinosaur fan aged 3 to 7

Four games, one tin

Open the lid and the dinosaur scene is already waiting. Inside are four separate activities: Dinosaurs & Ladders (a dinosaur-themed Snakes & Ladders), Tic Tac Toe, a magnetic scene to decorate, and a word search of 17 dinosaur words. There's a dice, a dry-wipe pen and a drawstring bag, so nothing needs hunting down before play starts.

The compact tin fits in a school bag, a nappy bag or the seat pocket of the car, which makes it an easy pick among our games for days out. A game you can bring along is a game that gets played.

What the play builds

Dinosaurs & Ladders gives a 3 to 4 year old their first real practice at counting squares one by one and waiting for someone else's turn. Tic Tac Toe adds early strategy: spotting where a line is forming and blocking it. Both are quick enough to hold a short attention span, and a rematch takes seconds.

The magnetic pieces stick to the tin's scene and lift off again, so it can be rearranged as many times as they like. Popping out and positioning each piece builds the same finger control used for pulling on a zip or gripping a pencil. Add a story, and today's dinosaurs might be sharing a swamp. Tomorrow they're running from a volcano.

Where it grows with them

The word search is the part that stretches older children. Scanning rows for hidden dinosaur names, then circling them with the dry-wipe pen, supports the letter recognition and left-to-right tracking that school reading relies on. It suits 5 to 7 year olds who are starting to sound out words.

Most families will find the games shift roles over time. A 3 year old plays the scene and board game with a parent. By 6, they're running the word search alone while the adults chat. Played one-on-one or with a sibling, it's quiet, battery-free and easy to tidy away.
