The Explorer ship is a true magnet for children's play, drawing them back again and again with its rich variety of activities both above and below deck. Boarding the ship is an adventure in itself, with endless options like vertical planks and climbing nets that challenge coordination and build muscle strength. Children are captivated by the many interactive features—binoculars, cannons, and the ship’s wheel—all of which stimulate tactile exploration and fine motor skills, while sparking hours of imaginative, dramatic play. This kind of play not only entertains but also nurtures cognitive growth and social-emotional development. Physical skills are also put to the test as children navigate the deck and explore different routes across or down. The slide adds a thrilling element, tickling the stomach and enhancing spatial awareness.
Play value is the value gained from play, the value that makes the child “want” or developmentally “need” to undertake the activity and thus gives the play item holding power. Play value can be described very precisely in developmental terms, looking into the human physical, cognitive, social and emotional developmental stages.
