The ‘Airplanes: More or Less’ game

About the game

Five pilot cats have gathered in the sky in their colourful aeroplanes. One aeroplane is big, the other is very small. Who will fly first, and who will fly last? Help the pilots line up according to size!

‘Aircraft: Bigger – Smaller’ is a game for comparing sizes featuring cheerful pilot cats. The child finds the biggest and smallest aeroplanes and arranges them in the correct order – in both directions.

Five colourful aeroplanes turn learning about sizes into a little aerial adventure.
