Londji Wooden Toys — The Fox and the Mouse

Sixteen wooden pieces. Cats, whales, owls, foxes — and whatever else the imagination decides to build next.

The Fox and the Mouse is Londji's take on the tangram — that ancient geometric puzzle game that turns simple shapes into infinite possibilities. Sixteen solid beech wood pieces, cut and coloured with water-based stains, come with a set of animal models: a fox, a mouse, a cat, an owl, a whale. Build them following the guide, then put the guide aside and see what comes next.

The pieces are substantial and satisfying in the hand — the particular warmth and weight of solid beech, the click of wood on wood — and the case is recycled cardboard, flat enough to slip into a bag. A construction game that works as a quiet afternoon at home or a travel toy with real longevity.
