Good to know! 💡 Role play promotes childhood development:
- Children especially have strong desires to have a pet. But having a pet is one thing; caring for it is another. Role-playing toys in the theme of pets can allow children to gain their first experiences with and feeling for an animal's needs, the scope of responsibility, and the time needed to take care of a pet.
- During role play, children learn to adhere to the rules – an especially important topic with regards to the theme of pet care and providing for their beloved animal regularly.
- Role play with plush animals can help reduce anxiety associated with contact with real animals.
- Childhood role play is a foundational and important motor of development for children between the ages of 3 and 6 years old. Role-playing pet care in particular teaches children to discuss the care with each other or with their parents, to stick to the agreements, and to have empathy for another living creature – an important social and emotional learning process.
- During role play, children create their own "play plot" which helps develop and train their imaginations and creativity.
- Children develop and expand their language and expression skills during active role play.
- Playful interactions with (plush) animals promotes the development of respectful behaviour and careful handling of animals in general while also training their fine motor skills.
The Rabbit Hutch and its accessories are exclusive small foot brand products that are developed by the small foot design team so that the play idea, function, and design is 100% focused on what parents and kids want.
