Playing

Many companies of the sector sell themed solutions for play areas, where, through the combination of different toys connected by connection elements, a clearly identifiable environment is defined. D For example, a medieval castle can be produced with a western-style front, or a pirate ship or space station. These areas, as has been said, offer the combination of different toys. The considerations on the accessibility and usability made to this point are also valid for these.
But the peculiarity of the themed compositions is that they can easily give rise to “plots” suggested by the theme itself which involves the majority of children present at that moment, who can invent their own role, their own character to insert within the plot and take part in the common game. D

In such a situation it can be easier to feel part of a collective activity even if you cannot access and take part in all the activities of play, which are being created. Using its own imagination and ability, a differently-abled child can also become actively involved, as long as the features for accessing the toys allow a level of satisfactory participation.
