Role play is so important for
children as it allows them to copy the behaviours they see in the adults they
look up to and explore what it means to grow up. It also allows them to swap
roles with their adult counterparts in the form of play, giving them the
opportunity to feel in control for a little while, in a safe and enjoyable way.
Playing role play games is the best way for kids to develop social and
emotional skills as well, as they can play in groups or with a sibling to learn
about sharing and taking on certain roles. It can be a great way to work out
frustrations they suffer through day to day and learn new skills and
behaviours.
Role playing with kitchens and
play food can be great as it not only gives children a great selection of new
games to play with realistic props (from a kitchen set, for example, kids can
play at keeping house, restaurants or being a TV chef!) but also lets them take
over the roles of their parents and treat them to a ‘meal’ that they themselves
have prepared. While they are really little, safe plastic playsets mean they
can do this without any of the dangers of using the actual kitchen to prepare
things!
The Le Toy Van Honeybake Breakfast Set is a cute and exciting
role play set based around breakfast food. It is finished in a rubberwood
grain, which looks fantastic and is completely soft and safe for even the
smallest children. The set itself is beautifully painted and designed so that
it will be something any parent will be proud to have in pride of place in
their home, and gives children something beautiful to be proud of out of their
toys. It looks more grown up than many other breakfast sets, so will also help
kids to feel a little more mature in their play!
The set consists of a working
toaster with 2 slices of toast, ‘sliceable’ velcro fruit, a croissant, a honey
pot, a boiled egg with soldiers, salt and pepper pots and a selection of
crockery and cutlery. The entire set is presented on a gorgeous wooden tray for
presentation purposes and kids will be able to create their own yummy
breakfasts for either themselves or to present to their parents in bed!
