- A play manual and a box that doubles as a background for play!

- Show your child how to fix each piece in a box by referring to the instructions in the manual. Talk about the pieces and different settings as you build a set.
- These 3D pieces are perfect for pretend play and storytelling! Come up with different scenarios and let your child make up tales as they play along.
- Mix the toy sets with each other. What if a lion found its way into a farm? Or a weightlifter went to the forest?
- For more creative fun, you can trace around the paper cutouts, sketch, and colour the images.

 

Placing each piece into thin slits requires a firm grip. Working on this will strengthen your child’s fine motor skills.

 

Colouring and pretend play is an excellent way for them to express their creativity and unique ways of looking at the world.

 

 

Learning about the different animals and circus acts will improve your child’s vocabulary.

 

 

Getting to know the different circus acts and animals will spark their imagination, encouraging storytelling, pretend play, and more!
