Schleich believes that developing creativity and a rich imagination is one of the most valuable gifts you can give a child. Schleich figurines meet high quality workmanship and excellent surface design. The word kangaroo comes from the language of the Aborigines, Australia´s indigenous people. It basically means I don´t understand , which was the answer given to British navigator James Cook when he asked what the animal was. What a misunderstanding! These marsupials have a kind of rubber band in their hind legs. It propels them upwards with each jump. The faster a kangaroo bounces, the farther the animal is catapulted forwards, and the less energy it consumes. Even though it can achieve a breathtaking speed of 64 km/h, there is one thing it cannot do: walk backwards.
WARNING! CHOKING HAZARD – Toy contains small parts. Not for children under 3 years.
