Bring the bustling streets into your centre or school with this working traffic light. This is a fantastic educational toy designed to teach children about road safety through interactive play. Standing at a child-friendly 72 cm (H), this traffic light offers both manual and automatic light cycles for a dynamic learning experience. It's the perfect way to blend imaginative role-play with essential traffic education, helping your little ones understand the rules of the road in a fun and engaging way. Whether they're pretending to be a crossing guard, a driver or a pedestrian, this light provides a realistic and safe environment for learning.

Why this traffic light is helpful:
