Tools that carry knowledge, ingenuity and connection to Country.
Our Traditional Tools Eco-Imprint Cutter Collection invites children to explore the tools and artefacts Aboriginal peoples have created and used across generations, through hands-on, open-ended play.
From gathering and carrying to fishing, hunting and everyday life, each design can become the beginning of a conversation:
💬 What might this have been used for?
🌿 What materials could it have been made from?
💧 How might tools differ depending on Country and available resources?
👐 What skills and knowledge were needed to make and use them?
Press them into playdough or clay, add them to a sensory or small-world invitation, use them alongside natural materials, incorporate them into storytelling, or pair them with images and books for further investigation.
As children press, create and explore, they're also developing fine motor skills, language, curiosity, problem-solving and imaginative thinking.
Most importantly, these resources provide another opportunity to show children that Aboriginal cultures are rich in knowledge, innovation, design and sophisticated understandings of Country, knowledge that continues today.
