Steering wheel
Cognitive
the manipulative steering wheel invites dramatic play which supports language and communication skills.
This little boat is a wonderful role play setting for hours of imaginative play. The boat theme encourage hours of play, uniting children around a hugely popular role play theme, sailing off into unknown land. The seat in the rear and the rotatable steering wheel add to imagination and the binoculars add to the tactile, rotating elements of the boat. These elements, apart from offering response and variety in tactile stimulation, evoke the sense of wonder sparking imagination and dramatic play. Dramatic play and role play function as children's way of negotiating through experiences they don't fully understand or that fascinate them. When doing so, they train their communication, turn-taking and language skills which help children avoid physical conflict. Eventually it will stimulate the ability to form friendships.

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.
