The desk adds to the overall transparency so that children can play together from outside and inside of the house and the side panel with yellow scoops that run in a groove encourages play that stimulates theory of mind and logical thinking skills. The leafy crawl-through panel encourages children to crawl and explore. These tactile activities stimulate cross-modal perception, important for improving reading skills, and support cross-coordination awareness which is key to physical and cognitive development at this age.

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.
