What our experts think
This glow in the dark, den constructing kit ignites children’s imagination and provides a creative outlet for imaginative play at home. As they come up with different constructions to build, children are developing problem-solving and visual thinking skills to plan what they want to make and follow steps to create it in real life. This also sparks questions and discussion about the different shapes they are making.
It is worth noting that lots of the instructions for suggested builds require two boxes and having these would expand the play opportunities and variety of structures children can build. However, they were able to make a variety of different structures with one box, including dens, reading nests and even a rocket – adding blankets, sheets and fairy lights to complete them. Working together successfully to build their construction provides children with a great way to develop important social skills such as cooperation, negotiation and teamwork.
