Vroom & Zoom Interactive Dashboard

This activity develops important skills which are wonderful for your child's well-being and ability to learn:

• Develops hand-eye coordination, which is activated for instance when we kick or catch the ball that comes flying at us in the playground, or when we cut a precise line with a pair of scissors or want to pour water into a glass without missing.
• This is a way for your child to enhance their proprioception, which increases your child's confidence to use their body in other types of physical play and benefits their concentration.
• Ideal for group role play, where children learn about finding their own place in the game and taking turns to leads.

Suitable for children aged 3 yrs. to 7 yrs.

Role play is a key part of your child's development, because role play improves your child's ability to think creatively in relation to their own identity. How does a turtle or a sword fighter talk? And what can I do if I'm a dragon or a gardener? Having these kinds of thoughts while playing stimulates children's social skills. Role playing helps children expand their understanding of the world they live in. Through role playing, your child gets the chance to experiment with boundaries, rules, and opportunities for identity formation and social interaction.

Do you know Melissa & Doug?

Melissa & Doug create toys that stimulate children's curiosity, capture their attention, and give their brains and bodies lots to learn. Therefore, the aunties and uncles at Toy Academy have enjoyed a great relationship with the skilled toy makers at the American toy company for many years.

The toys are versatile and durable, and most of them can be used in many ways. This adds to the sustainability of the toys, as they encourage versatile ways of playing that do not require additional consumption of the planet's energy and resources. And every year, the toy company comes up with great new ideas for toys.
