Childhood imagination is a precious quality that has to be encouraged, developed and stimulated. According to developmental psychologists, imaginative play helps children to develop emotions, understand the emotions of others, learn to cooperate and compromise, explore the world and their own creativity, solve problems, learn to overcome fear and understand social relationships.

Imaginative play with toys like the Little People Musical Preschool playset is important because:

• It helps the toddlers in role-playing and trying out different experiences
• Children generally feel that they have less power than the adults around them.

Toys and learning aids
Toys and playthings are a crucial aspect of developing imaginative skills in kids. The toddler years are not just about the terrible twos! They’re the most intensive periods of learning – new skills, concepts, language, abilities. The child gains enormous amounts of information about the adult world and moves from a period of self-centeredness to finding her/his place in the larger human context.

Fisher-Price Little People Musical Preschool toys provide learning experiences in a fun environment. Their tiny figurines have been cherished by kids around the world for many decades. Perfectly sized for small hands, the figurines have a wealth of detailing and are tough enough to stand a lot of battering.

The Little People Musical Preschool playset has a variety of characters – a hamster, humans, an aquarium of fish, and a dinosaur. Kids love to move them around, place them on the slide, seat them at the table-chair sets, press buttons to make animal and musical sounds, weave stories around their adventures and imagine a variety of situations involving them. For those few hours, the child’s fantasy world comes alive, enriching the imagination, adding color, depth, and emotions beyond the everyday experiences.

This playset presents a great prelude to the preschool experience. There’s a teacher figure, along with little figurines representing children, school furniture and a magical rug that gives forth more than 35 different sounds! Simulating the school environment helps kids to transition into the real school when it’s time for them to go. It also gives the child a sense of familiarity, confidence, and security. They form the impression of school as a fun place, where lots of exciting things happen!
