Wild America Fun Pack

The Wild American Fun Pack includes some of the most iconic creatures that call North America home. Featured are the Moose, Bat, Bumblebee, Black Bear, Bison, Alligator, Bald Eagle, and Wolf Pup, a delightful mix of forest, swamp, and plains dwellers.

• History: The story of wild America is the story of the national parks. In 1872, just a few years after the American Civil War, Congress created Yellowstone National Park in the wilderness of the Wyoming Territory. Other natural areas, historical areas, and monuments followed, each maintained by different bureaucracies. By 1916, there were 35 national parks, and with oversight getting difficult, Congress created the National Park Service, which remains in existence today to maintain and protect the entire national park system.
• Characteristics: From the swamps of Florida to the mountains of Alaska, this Fun Pack covers a continent. Use it to learn geography or study ecosystems, give it as a birthday or classroom gift, or share it on a long car ride. These mini figures also make great Montessori toys for lessons about the natural wonders of different regions.
