The organic branching shape means it fills visual space generously — it looks larger than its footprint suggests. Exact dimensions: please see the product photos for scale reference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: What can I fill it with?\u003cbr\u003eA: Blue or teal sensory rice works beautifully against the yellow coral. Small shells, glass pebbles, kinetic sand, fine sand, or tiny ocean figurines all work well. The irregular sections naturally invite sorting and arranging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Why is it yellow? Isn't coral pink or orange?\u003cbr\u003eA: Real coral reefs come in every colour — yellow, orange, white, purple, and more. The golden yellow is a deliberate design choice that photographs beautifully and stands out on a play shelf. It also pairs perfectly with blue sensory fillers for a striking colour contrast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Is it made in Belgium?\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes — this tray is designed and 3D-printed in Belgium from eco-friendly bio-PLA. It's made in small batches, which means each piece has a subtle individuality you won't find in mass-produced toys.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Is bio-PLA safe for children?\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes.

Non-toxic and safe for hands-on play with children aged 3+.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Are sensory fillers included?\u003cbr\u003eA: No — the tray only. Props and fillers shown in photos are for display purposes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: How do I clean it?\u003cbr\u003eA: Hand wash with mild soap and warm water up to 60°C. Not dishwasher safe.
