Immerse children in a world of storytelling.

Immerse children in a world of storytelling, culture, and early learning with these beautifully crafted Indigenous Woodland Animal Wood Puzzles!


Part of what makes this line of products so beautiful is the unique and individual characteristics each piece displays. No two items are ever identical and that is why we love them. Wood is a living and ever-changing material, and over time the colour and appearance of these products can change, splits can appear, and bark can shed. This is a natural part of the aging process - cosmetic imperfections could exist and develop, but as long as these do not impair the function of the item for its intended purpose, it is not considered to be faulty or damaged.

Made in collaboration with Indigenous artist Alexandra Couchie

Each puzzle in this collection brings Indigenous stories and animal symbols to life, fostering a connection to Indigenous culture and sparking curiosity about the natural world. With Alexandra Couchie’s unique artistry—drawing from both traditional woodland styles and impressionistic realism—each puzzle serves as an introduction to Indigenous artistry and cultural learning.
