What our experts think
The Dragon Castle is perfect for encouraging imaginative play and the construction element is great for developing logical thinking skills. Our testers were transfixed with this toy and couldn’t wait to start playing with it; they created lots of different story scenes which is fantastic for their storytelling and language skills. During imaginative play, children are experimenting with their decision making and practising their social skills – especially when they are playing and communicating together. This teaches them valuable lessons about how to manage feelings and also make sense of different situations. The interchangeable modular pieces also allow children the creativity to construct the castle how they want, which is great for their spatial awareness and hand-eye coordination.
