Hippopotamus Figurine, Schleich Age: 3+ Size: 13.4x6x5.3cm

The Hippopotamus figurine from the German brand Schleich has been crafted with special care and attention to make it "real". Although hippos cannot swim very well, they spend almost the entire day in the water. They cannot simply float with the current because they are too heavy. When they want to cross a river, they let themselves sink to the bottom and walk along the riverbed to the opposite bank.

The figurine stimulates children's imagination and creativity.

The German brand Schleich was founded in 1935. The company initially started as a toy manufacturer, later specializing in detailed animal figurines. Each product is developed with special attention and care, especially for children's hands, and is unique because it is completely hand-painted using a special technology. This is ensured by experienced designers who sculpt models of animals, people and fairy-tale creatures from special wax to achieve the perfect shape. For this reason, they are highly valued not only by children and their parents, but also by many young and old collectors around the world. Before they leave the factory and enter children's hands, all products undergo strict quality and safety controls.
