Rubens Kids Accs. - Outerwear

Here, essential skills are engaged, which are great for your child's well-being and ability to learn:

• Stimulates your child's fine motor skills.
• Benefits hand-eye coordination, which is activated for example when we kick or catch the ball that comes flying towards us in PE class, or when we cut a precise line with a pair of scissors or want to pour a glass of water without missing.
• Ideal for role play, where little ones practise finding their own place in the game and taking turns to lead. This stimulates your child's social skills.

Suitable for children aged 3 yrs. to 7 yrs.

Role play is an important part of your child's development, because role play inspires your child to think creatively about their own identity. What are my superpowers as a knight or a giant? How does a circus performer or a unicorn talk? Such reflections stimulate children's social skills. Through role playing, your child gets the chance to test rules, boundaries, and opportunities for identity formation and social interaction, and this stimulates their sense of the world they live in.

Do you know Rubens Barn?

At Toy Academy, we are very fond of Rubens Barn and all their delightful dolls – and there are lots to choose from. Because Rubens Barn have created many different dolls in a wealth of sizes and models. Some are over 50 cm long, others are suitable for newborns, some have a heating pad to keep your child warm, and some are organic or have changeable diapers.

Rubens Barn dolls are hand-sewn, and most have weighted pellets in their bum, so the doll feels like a real baby in your arms. Therefore, the dolls are often used in dementia caregiving, because they can spark good memories and improve well-being.
