How gorgeous are these wonderful ocean inspired card sets? Each pack includes 35 beautifully illustrated cards including the animal's common name on one side. On the reverse you'll find their scientific name, what they eat, conservation status, where they live and three fun facts. The background colour of each card shows where the animal lives, sorted by continent. 

These cards make a great educational resource and game: start by using the cards to learn about the animals, then progress into playing a game to see who knows more about that animal. You could also sort the cards by where each animal lives using the colour coding, why not use them to draw from, or as a great starting point for educational projects. 

The shark cards have a different colour system to the other cards and focus on the various bodies of water around the world rather than continents and the information on the reverse includes their conservation status, how they reproduce and three fun facts. 

You could use the cards as flash cards, simply using them to learn the names of 35 different shark species, then you can move on to learning the information about each species. Testing each other as you learn progresses into a fun and educational game. Younger ones will love to sort the cards into colours finding out which sharks live in the same areas, or you could sort them by the kind of food they eat, or how about sorting them into the way their babies are born. There are so many great ways to play and learn. 

Cards are approx 78 x 108mm and are supplied in a fully printed box that features all the animals in the set on it. 

Illustrated and designed by Ria in her home studio in Wiltshire
Printed in the UK, using sustainable card, and coated with a water based finish, making them recyclable at the end of their life.
Presented in a fully printed and laminated box.

Shipping & Returns

Shipping policy

Christmas Deliveries 2024

Our cut off date for Christmas orders this year is Monday 16th December for UK and Monday 1st December for International. We are only posting via Royal Mail now and orders over £40 will be sent via 48 hour tracked delivery. We will continue to pack & post orders received after the above stated dates but please be aware that they may not arrive in time for Christmas. 
We would also reiterate that this is a busy time of year for Royal Mail and items can and do get lost on occasions. Please order as early as possible to avoid disappointment and bear in mind that there is next to nothing we can do once your order is in the postal system.

EU Orders under GPSR

Unfortunately with effect from Monday 9th December 2024 we will no longer be able to ship any orders to destinations within the EU. This includes Northern Ireland. This is due to the requirements and costs associated with the new General Product Safety Regulations 2024. Unfortunately it is simply not feasible for us as a small business stocking products made predominantly by small and micro independent businesses to comply with these requirements at this time. We recommend ordering to a UK based address instead such as a friend or family member so that they can send on for you as these Regulations only relate to businesses.

Dispatch time

We aim to pack and dispatch orders all within three working days. This time should be added to the typical delivery time stated for your chosen method of carriage. Please remember that we are not Amazon Prime and it is not possible to arrange next day delivery. If you are absolutely desperate for an item please contact us by email BEFORE placing your order to discuss options.

*The terms below relate to shipping within the UK mainland*

Royal Mail

Choose from second class shipping at a flat rate of £3.25 per order or first class shipping at flat rate of £4.50 per order. These services will not be tracked.

Orders over £40 (excluding print on demand clothing products fulfilled by our partner company Teemill) will automatically attract free shipping and will generally be sent via Royal Mail Tracked 48 or where that service is not available by Royal Mail Signed For

Unfortunately we are unable to offer free shipping on overs over £40 including print on demand clothing fulfilled by our print partner Teemill. Teemill clothing orders are printed to order and will be posted to you direct by Teemill. Any other items ordered will be posted by us from Fowey.

Evri 

We no longer offer shipping with Evri as an option as sadly they are just too unreliable for a small business like this.

Local delivery

We are not currently offering local delivery as an option. Please select collect from the shop if you live locally and want to avoid postage.

Collection from the shop

Available during opening hours, collection within three working days of order. You will be sent an email when your order is ready to collect.

Lost items

We will not be able to consider refunds until at least 14 working days have passed from the date of postage. During periods of industrial action this will be extended to at least 21 days and we would ask you to please be patient in those circumstances. If your order has not arrived after 14 days please contact us by email.

​If there are any extenuating circumstances which might delay your order further, you will be notified by email to advise of the delay and to discuss options.

Returns & refunds

Please click here to read our returns & refunds policy.

International Shipping

Post Brexit International Shipping has become exceptionally onerous for small businesses, particularly ones like mine which mainly ship domestically. Shipping charges will often vary considerably depending exactly what items are purchased. Your order will be sent via the postage service which most closely matches the amount you have paid for postage. If there is a significant discrepancy we will refund any overpayment and reserve the right to contact you to discuss options in the event of underpayment.

As a small business with minimal margins on our gift products we are unable to absorb shipping costs over and over the amount paid and hope that you will understand this. Unfortunately we are unable to offer a free shipping service internationally.

We will complete the relevant customs forms but will not be responsible for any tax which may be levied for collection within the destination country as this is simply too big and complicated an undertaking for us to deal with when we handle so few international orders. Please make yourself aware of any shipping restrictions pertaining to the destination country. We recommend using this guide before ordering to check that we are able to ship the item you intend to order.
