Playmobil Is Not Just Good Looks
"There's a Playmobil advertisement here with my newspaper. Did you leave it on my desk with the mail?" "What about a ad?"
"The one you left lying squarely on top of my desk." "Ohhhh, THAT ad"… you answer sheepishly. "I saw you eyeing dollhouses last week at the mall. Remember we agreed not to spend money on toys that are just for looks? We agreed to only buy toys that Kathryn can actually play with…not just toys to be put on display." "I disagree with you about whether she'll enjoy a dollhouse. I've always wanted a dollhouse and I've never had one, so I want her to have one… they're so pretty sitting in a little girl's room." "Sitting is right… and collecting dust because she can't play with it." "What do you mean she can't play with it? Why wouldn't she? Playmobil has one of the neatest dollhouses I've ever seen. Here, let me show you…" "What's this? It's exactly like what I thought we didn't want." "No, this one is exactly what we do want… see, the doors and windows open and close… and the stairs… you can take them out to make more play room." "Play room for what?" "See, Playmobil has these darling little people that can live in Kathryn's dollhouse, there's furniture, dishes, even little pets… she'd love that." "I knew you'd come around. If you hadn't, I was going to pitch for a pony… nah, just kidding… maybe next year." Of course their are other great educational toy brands that also develop and build skills while playing.
