Indigenous Dough Stamp Set by Awe & Wonder

With a handy leather pouch for storage, this tracking set is the perfect portable choice for a range of cultural based learning. Aboriginal people have developed, through their hunter /gatherer lifestyle, exceptional tracking skills to hunt animals, identify and locate edible plants, as well as finding sources of water.  Children are taught as soon as they can walk to track their mother and siblings’ footprints. Elders teach children how to recognise the patterns and shapes that represent the tracks of animals by drawing into the sand. The National Quality Standard (NQS) and Australian Curriculum makes it essential for teachers and educators to understand, and help children learn about, the history, culture and contemporary lives of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. Our tracking stamp set allows educators to celebrate the unique history of our animals the tracking skills of Australia’s first people. Hand carved by artisans from a single piece of wood these tracking stamps can be used in a variety of ways to celebrate and teach the rich history of tracking in Australia including dough, memory, rubbings, loose parts play and storytelling. Made of wood.
