The unsurpassed bestseller Vilac strives in an original way to develop a sense of children that is often neglected: touch. The game is made up mainly of wooden figures hidden in a bucket equipped with a soft fabric bag inside. Younger children are tasked with describing in their own words what object they are holding in their hand, based only on touch after putting their hand into the tube. Parents can demonstrate the process to the children with a clear example. Older children can play the game in the form of lotto or bingo; picture cards of the individual objects are available in the set for these games. Main features: 21 game pieces and 20 picture cardsfor 2–5 playersvarious game variantspractical packaging Game instructions: Feel and find:The first player takes a card from the pile. Then they must reach into the bag and use their sense of touch to find the wooden piece that corresponds to the picture on the card. If they pick the correct piece, they keep the card, and it's the next player's turn, who starts again by drawing a card from the pile. However, if the first player picks the wrong piece, they must pass their card to the next player, who must try to find the correct piece. After each round, the pieces are returned to the bag. When there are no cards left in the pile, a winner is determined. The player with the most cards wins. Attention! If one of the players accidentally pulls out a piece in the shape of a toadstool, they must return all their cards to the pile! You can adjust the rules as you see fit to help children become more familiar with touching and finding objects: 1 – Start with a small number of wooden pieces.2 – Let the children look into the bag.3 – Then make the game a little harder again, don't let them look into the bag.4 – Add more pieces to the bag.5 – Finally, once the children get used to the game, play according to the traditional rules. BINGO variant:Lay out 4 cards in a square and create one or more playing fields for each player. One of the players, or a parent, draws a piece from the bag and calls it out. The player who has a card corresponding to this drawn piece takes it and places it on their card. The player who fills their playing field first wins!

For over 100 years, VILAC has been fulfilling children's dreams. The French brand VILAC, as the flagship of the French industry for the production of wooden toys, is located deep in the heart of the Jura Mountains, surrounded by mountains, lakes and forests. Since 1911, VILAC has been producing wooden toys hand in hand with traditional manufacturing, modern trends, adaptable economics and an emphasis on ecology. The toys are made from wood sourced from sustainably managed forests, respecting biodiversity and with a strong emphasis on environmentally friendly technologies. VILAC prefers short routes for wood delivery. It uses local wood and ensures that a new tree is planted for every tree felled. Because today we can no longer ignore the challenges of environmental problems, VILAC is committed to defending our planet. After all, a river consists of many small drops. Therefore, VILAC continues its environmentally friendly activities.
VILAC also follows in the footsteps of the old turning factories that once made the region famous: craftsmen lovingly turned, smoothed, sanded, lacquered and decorated wood in their workshop in the Jura mountains. Beech, hornbeam, alder or boxwood from the surrounding French forests are used; this wood guarantees the specificity and quality of production. There are so many stories about these craftsmen who love their craft and have managed to pass it on. In fact, not much has changed in the last 110 years, and that's quite reassuring. The gestures are almost the same, the noise of the machines, the sounds of carving and painting wood create the same melody. Above all, the workshop still smells of beech wood chips, which evoke old memories. If the company does not have the know-how for some toys in Franc
