Unstructured imaginative play is important for kids because it allows them to explore and discover their own creativity, develop problem-solving skills, and learn to navigate social situations. Through imaginative play, children can practice decision-making, develop empathy and emotional regulation, and learn to work collaboratively with others.
It also fosters their curiosity and sense of wonder, helping them to see the world from different perspectives and think outside the box. It is an essential part of a child’s development and can lay the foundation for a lifetime of creativity, innovation, and personal growth.
As kids, my brother and I loved taking the cushions off the couches in our house to build forts, pirate ships, zoo enclosures, and castles. My mom was a good sport about it. Probably because the couches were hand-me-downs and it wasn’t a big deal if the cushions got dirty or the padding broke down.
These days, you don’t have to sacrifice the integrity of your couches to let your kids build with the cushions. The Figgy Play Couch is easy to clean up, fits seamlessly into any living space, and is infinitely versatile. Best of all, it encourages kids to put down their screens and use their imaginations.
The Figgy Play Couch is available in a variety of colors. It includes 4 base cushions, 2 rectangles, and the option to add an extra wedge and separate waterproof liners. Pieces Velcro together for stability, hidden zippers keep the outside free from rough edges, and machine washable covers keep it looking great. Smartly placed handles make it easy to move around. Extra wedges and pillows can be purchased separately to expand the set.
