Play Value
Play value is the value gained from play, the value that makes the child 'want' or developmentally 'need' to undertake the activity and thus gives the play item holding power. Play value can be described very precisely in developmental terms, looking into the human physical, cognitive, social and emotional developmental stages.

Specifications
The spinning plate of the Tipi Carousel makes children laugh out with joy: It rotates, tickles the stomach, and is spacious enough for a few friends too. This will make children come back for more play again and again. The social appeal for children is evident: you can be active and close together. There is room for more friends seated, standing or even lying. This trains cooperation and turn-taking skills. The physical play and training in spinning is the main fun factor. The rotation trains the sense of balance which is fundamental for all other skills. A well-trained sense of balance helps children to navigate the world securely, for instance preventing falls when playing actively. It also positively affects the ability to sit still and concentrate. The Tipi Carousel is an important, responsive activity for play and active breaks.
This product, Tipi Carousel (ELE400064), is provided by KOMPAN Australia.
