Bring the fascinating world of marine life into your learning space with these real animal specimens preserved in clear resin. Children can look closely at the creatures from different angles and discover details such as shells, claws, fins and tentacles.
Each specimen is sealed inside a transparent resin block, making it easy to observe while keeping the specimen protected. They are a wonderful addition to marine-themed learning, nature tables, sensory play setups and science areas in childcare centres, classrooms and homes.
