The ever-important role-playing
In the richly detailed minature world of a doll house, children can imitate and reflect on their everyday experiences and reflect on what they experience and learn in their reality. While role-playing, they have the opportunity to let their imaginations run wild, come up with their own ideas, and process their daily experiences. A doll house offers both girls and boys an equal chance to slip into different roles - regardless of whether they're playing together with friends or alone with the doll house dolls as play partners.
Promoting the development of social skills
In addition, children learn important social skills when playing with dolls. When children play "house" (mother-father-child) - or other family constellations - they imitate the experiences they have from day to day. Is a family comprised of a doll Mum, doll Dad, children, and grandparents moving in, or will there be a mixed, motley living community? Compatible bending dolls can open all kinds of potential play constellations! The young ones learn to put themselves in the shoes of the another person, exercise empathy, social togetherness, and how to process experiences and articulate feelings.
Training for motor skills
When decorating and setting up the doll house rooms and spaces, creativity and a sense for design is required - but so are fine motor skills! Handling the smaller dolls and the considerably filigree furniture and decorations requires a certain finger dexterity which develops more and more when playing.
