Sarah’s Silks Maple Wood Bunny

The baby bunny measures about 1 inch long, 1 and a half inches tall, and half an inch wide. It is deliberately tiny, which is why it slips inside a wooden Easter egg with room to spare. The small size makes it a hide and find surprise and a character that fits neatly into miniature scenes.

The bunny is carved from all natural maple wood with no finish applied. The grain is left bare, so the surface keeps its natural look and each piece shows a slightly different pattern. Nothing is painted or stained, which is typical of Sarah's Silks wooden animal toys and part of why they feel warm to hold.

Yes, it was made to be hidden inside Sarah's Silks wooden Easter eggs. The bunny drops in and stays tucked away until a child opens the egg to find it. That makes it a favorite for spring baskets and hide and seek games, and it gives the eggs a small surprise inside rather than leaving them empty.

It is an open ended figure, so play follows the child. Young ones use it in Playmap scenes, farm or garden setups, or any small world story they invent. Because the bunny has no fixed role, it can be a pet, a wild rabbit, or a story character, and it mixes easily with other small figures.

The maple grain is naturally beautiful and no finish covers it, so the lines and tone vary from one bunny to the next. This is a feature of hand made wooden toys rather than a fault. Your bunny carries its own grain pattern, which means no two pieces are exactly alike even though they share the same shape.

It is a single solid piece of maple with no coating to chip and no parts that come apart. Because it is very small, keep it away from babies who still put everything in their mouths, and save it for supervised play or for older children building scenes. Adults can guide younger siblings during hide and find games.
