Transport your little one to the sunny shores of Aotearoa with this enchanting wool felt playmat, handmade in Nepal under fair trade conditions. Inspired by the vibrant pōhutukawa trees in full bloom, it captures the magic of long summer days spent by the beach.

Filled with memories of salty hair, warm sand, and the sound of gentle waves, this playmat includes a collection of felted coastline treasures such as a large moveable pōhutukawa tree, seagull and nest, pāua shells, kina (sea urchins), and a starfish. Soft, felted rocks and lush coastal greenery complete the scene, sparking your child's imagination and storytelling.

Crafted from soft, durable wool felt, this playmat invites sensory play and exploration, bringing the best of New Zealand’s summer beaches right into your home.

  • Designed in New Zealand. Handmade in Nepal

  • Dyed with azo free (non-toxic) colours

When your beautiful Pōhutukawa tree arrives, it may need a little gentle shaping to help its branches and roots settle into place. For extra stability, nestle the roots securely between nearby rocks and bushes.

Pohutakawa playscape

The detail of this story telling playscape is just beautiful. I have set it up for the children I teach and it engages them so much. They make and tell their own stories withit.
