Three Bears Story Rustic Wooden Set

Step aside, Goldilocks, because this charming Three Bears Rustic Role Play set is about to steal the spotlight in your EYFS classroom or outdoor educational setting. Whether you’re hosting a fairytale-themed day, encouraging early years literacy activities or setting up a cosy reading corner, this set provides endless storytelling opportunities and role-playing fun. Crafted from hand-carved wood with delightful rustic charm, these miniature pieces invite learners to explore literacy skills, fine motor activities, and problem-solving in one neatly bundled (and bear-approved) package.

Designed to inspire everything from KS2 reading to mark-making in early years, this set encourages children to think critically, make connections, and expand their comprehension skills. Pair it with Story Spoons or story sacks to breathe even more life into classroom storytelling sessions or use it to complement a literacy shed or reading den. And while bears aren’t included, the set’s versatility more than makes up for it.

This isn’t just a prop—it’s an invitation to a world of creativity. Learners can recreate the classic tale, develop their own narratives or even use the pieces in nursery rhyme activities or mark-making exercises. The scaled-down furniture doubles as a brilliant tool for fine motor skills activities in EYFS, requiring learners to manipulate, position, and balance each piece. As an added bonus, its compact size means it fits perfectly into an EYFS reading area or cosy corner without taking over the space. Who knew three bears could be so thoughtful?

For added whimsy, consider setting up the scene with animal puppets or using the bowls for some (non-porridge) counting games. And don’t worry—Papa Bear’s chair is definitely sturdy enough for dramatic “This one’s just right!” re-enactments. Just remind the learners to share the props (Goldilocks taught us about that!).
