Wooden Birdie Tea Party Set - Tender Leaf Toys | Wooden Toy NZ

Perfect for:

• 3-4 yrs: Tiny hands practise pouring, stirring and balancing saucers - strengthening fine motor control and grip shift.
• 4-5 yrs: Hosting “tea” for teddies grows language, turn-taking and social-emotional smarts.
• 5-6 yrs: Café-style role play sparks storytelling, early maths (counting cups) and planning skills.

“Mum, fancy a cuppa?” This charming wooden Birdie Tea Set transforms the lounge into a cosy café, giving little baristas free rein to clink, pour and serve without a drop on the carpet. A solid wood teapot with friendly bird decal, two petite cups and saucers, milk jug, teaspoons, a fabric tea bag and a pastel cupcake all perch on the blossom-print tray ready for the morning rush. The smooth beechwood pieces feel satisfyingly weighty, and the gentle blush, mint and natural timber palette slips beautifully onto any Montessori shelf.

Beyond the adorable photo ops, each pretend brew session strengthens wrist rotation, pincer grip and bilateral co-ordination while expanding vocabulary through “one sugar, please” negotiations. Children refine social cues, practise patience while waiting their turn, and explore early maths as they share out teaspoons or count cups for guests.

Open-ended and screen-free, the set is small-world play that grows with them - from solitary pouring practice to elaborate high-tea storytelling. And yes, you might finally sip your real tea before it goes stone-cold.
