‘More or Less: Postman Corgis’ sorter

About the game

Five postman corgis are rushing to deliver letters and parcels. One dog is big, another is smaller, and the smallest is absolutely tiny. Help the cheerful postmen find their right places!

‘Corgi Postmen’ is a wooden size-sorting toy featuring funny little dogs. The child examines five corgis of different sizes and places them in the corresponding slots on the base, which features letters and parcels.

Once all the posties have been lined up by size, the little postal team is ready for another day’s work.
