Did you know only the Queen bee can reproduce eggs? Drone bees are male bees and they spend their days eating and looking for unfertilized Queen bees. Drones are reproduced through infertilized eggs, they have no sting and cannot feed themselves. How amazing are bees?

Bee Sensory Sound Bottle by Petit Boum

Be amazed and let yourself be transported to the magical kingdom of the bees. How many flowers do you need to get a kilo of honey? Take a good look at the bee, enter her house, watch her dance, but be careful not to get bitten! Psssssssssst!

Look, shake … and listen! It’s that simple and effective. The small objects from the SOUND BOTTLE series are fascinating for the little ones. Auditory stimulation, especially important in the first year of life of babies, is added to the visual identification of the pieces contained in it. It helps in learning to distinguish sounds: from the softest to the loudest, by associating each sound with a meaning. Playing with Petit Boum’s sensory bottles stimulates gross motor skills: stacking bottles, shaking, rolling… When they are older, boys and girls can portray different scenarios and stimulate imaginative play.

Petit Boum sets itself the challenge of inviting children to explore the world around them. Because there is no better way to learn than by playing spontaneously and freely, at the child’s pace. Each sensory bottle of Petit Boum contains a universe of stimuli for children of all ages (from 3 months to 99 years!). They stimulate imagination and creativity and arouse the inherent curiosity of all children for what surrounds them. As a result, the sensory bottles can be used both stimulating and relaxing for young and old.

• Age: children 3 months and older.
• Dimensions sensory bottle: 14 cm x 4 cm
• Do not immerse in water for a long time or expose it to the sun. For cleaning, we recommend wiping with a damp cloth.
