variety of play themes such as the Happy Meadow Farm, which encourages children to interact with the farmyard characters and provides a platform for further learning and discovery. Alongside these will also be a number of licensed offerings. The range will be supported by social media marketing and promotional


video support will be available for online and in-store retail use. For added play value, the 3D PlayScapes include design features which aid discovery learning and which have been purposely created to make them suitable for use on their own and also in conjunction with other toys and books.
