Brio Flora is a new preschool playset line for ages three and up that matches floral-inspired designs with imaginative collectible figures. Complete with magnetic noses, whimsical characters like Jasmine, Peony and Clover can interact with one another as well as flower houses and branches, and get outfitted with berry, flower, wing, and mask accessories, plus they're compatible with Brio World wooden tracks, sold separately.
“Flora is an exciting new playset line for Brio, created for families who want more from playtime,” says Mark McHugh, Product Marketing Manager, Ravensburger North America. "With endless ways to explore and no two play sessions the same, Flora allows children to build an ever-changing world they’ll want to return to again and again.”
