Animal (or similar shaped) pasta reasonably prices

My DS is going through fussy eating stage. I used to buy Co-op animal pasta for £0.58 per 500 grams. Then Sainsbury's had Christmas pasta, which is not available any more. Similar pasta in Whole Foods is quite expensive, almost £2 for 250 grams. I wonder if anybody could recommend reasonably priced pasta for children that is still available to buy.

Morrisons have dino pasta but it's gluten free and a small bag.
I take it you've tried the small shells and other funny pasta shapes?

Something else to try is using cookie cutters to cut shapes out of fresh lasagna sheets.

Garofalo Organic Anistelle Kids Pasta 500g is £2.59 including delivery from Amazon? Obviously still relatively expensive for pasta but there don’t seem to be many other options out there.

Sainsbury’s sells little star like shapes - and then in the baby food aisle they have farmyard shapes pasta

Thank you everyone for ideas!
We tried Sainsbury's little stars but DS did not like them. I guess they might be too small. I ordered Hipp organic farm pasta for collection from Sainsbury's, will see tomorrow if they have it.

Lidl often do seasonal ones. I’ve learnt to stock up when they do have it so we still have the christmas one at the Moment.

I third Lidl, they often have the tri-colour pasta in animal shapes. Although now I think of it I haven't seen it recently
