Educational Value
This pirate ship set from Le Toy Van is filled with educational value. It triggers imaginative and creative play which is essential in enabling children to learn how to express and communicate their ideas and feelings. It gives little ones the opportunity to initiate their own learning and make choices and decisions independently. Handling the figures also supports little one’s physical development; both fine and gross motor skills are a basic foundation of childhood development. Building strong muscles and developing co-ordination gives children a head start in other areas like communication and literacy. When it comes to starting school or nursery, strong hand muscles and co-ordination are vital in enabling children to hold a pencil correctly. When used with mums, dad or peers, the pirate ship set can be used to create role play situations which is great for developing communication skills, vocabulary and turn-taking behaviour.
