Dollhouse - Penny Windmill

This activity benefits essential skills which are wonderful for your child's well-being and ability to learn new things:

• Ideal for enhancing your child's sense of empathy.
• Excellent for group role play, where children get to practise finding their own place in the game and taking turns to leads.
• Strengthens social skills, which, according to elementary school teachers and childcare professionals, are more important for students to practise than learning grammar and division.

Measures 21 x 16 x 33 cm.
Suitable for ages 3 yrs. to 7 yrs.

Playing with dolls, play sets, face paint, or dressing up are all ways of engaging in role play. Role play is key in your child's development. During role play, your child strengthens their ability to think creatively about their own identity. What are my abilities as a ninja or a dinosaur? How does a queen or a turtle talk? These kinds of ponderings strengthen children's social skills. When role playing, your child is able to learn about boundaries, rules, and opportunities for identity formation and social interaction, and this develops their awareness of the world around them.
