The countless play activities of the Cutter and Fish Shop play unit inspire children to play and imagine together, for long, again and again. The many explorative play features such as play panels with sounding gearing wheels, climb-through dense and the funnel leading to the treasure box all inspire countless dramatic play scenarios while stimulating them to explore the many tactile, moving play features. The explorative and creative play from the wheels play panel intrigues children's creativity and builds their understanding of cause and effect. Often they spur make-believe play such as shop or cutter. This makes children play together, learn turn-taking and empathy and make friends.
