This new educational set designed to teach children about an important 'Ōlelo No'eau (Hawaiian proverb,) "lele ka 'iwa, mālie kai ko'o". This beautiful set comes paired with a mini play mat and a matching pouch, allowing children to play as they learn about Hawaiian culture.
The set is focused around the 'iwa bird, also known as the frigate bird, which plays a central role in the proverb. Children can learn about how the sight of 'iwa flying toward the sea, connects with the weather and the ocean. Additionally, the set includes other key elements, such as rain (ua), sun (lā), and clouds (ao), all labeled in 'Ōlelo Hawai'i (Hawaiian language) for an immersive and educational experience.
Each wooden piece is designed to be sturdy and long-lasting. The play mat is the perfect size to use anywhere and features bold, colorful graphics that are sure to capture the keiki's attention.
