Bench
Social-Emotional
gathering, cooperating or taking a break from play - all train social skills.
The Mini Car signals play loud and clear and attracts infants and toddlers again and again. The cute rounded shapes and the vibrant colours attract. And the manipulative steering wheel, gear and yellow headlight spheres can be handled and turned again and again. The car has three compartments, two of which are relatively open to the front and rear directions. They both offer ample seating, and the rear also features two tinkering tables. The themes of traffic and cars are well-known to toddlers. They take a starting point in the toddlers’ near world and open the scope of going into the wider world. Dramatic play scenarios such as visiting family are played out repeatedly in the Mini Car. This is an important contribution to the development of language skills and literacy.
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 because of this children will want to return to the item over and over again. Play value can be described very precisely in developmental terms, looking into the human physical, cognitive, social and emotional developmental stages.
