The Explorer ship is a magnet for children's play, attracting play again and again with its immensely varied play offering, above and below deck. The boar-ding options are endless, with planks that can be climbed vertically, nets and climbing cleats. This all trains cross-coordination and muscles. The many manipulative activities: binoculars, cannons, the wheel stimulate tactillty and fine motor skills and inspire hours of dramatic play. Apart from being great fun, it supports children's cognitive development and social-emotional skills. In addition to dramatic play, children develop their physical skills. Once up on deck, the children can take more ways across or down. The slide tickles the stomach and adds thrill. Additionally, it trains children's sense of space. So play has huge benefits in the ship.

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.
