NEWS – Playpress – a Fun, Accessible, and Wholesome Toy Universe!
“Playpress is a refreshing toy universe that reflects our modern world – it’s pocket-money-friendly, eco-minded, and gender-neutral”
Playpress are a range of fun play sets for children aged 5-10 years. The sets are all about playability and the aim is to fuel kids’ imaginations with a creative play universe.
Playpress care strongly about three things:
- Accessibility – the sets will be priced to be pocket-money friendly
- The environment – the sets are plastic-free, made from recyclable, durable card
- A modern world – the sets are gender-neutral, with all characters like doctors and nurses reflected in male and female versions
Playpress have spent two years prototying and testing their toy sets and are now launching their very first range and making them available through their Kickstarter campaign. So when you pledge money for their Kickstarter campaign you are also getting some toys for your support and help which is brilliant!
We’ve had a sneak peek at one of the sets — The Newsstand Set. The quality of the board is nice and thick and very sturdy. The pieces plop out easily and the illustrated instructions are easy to follow. I built the set for our daughter as she’s only 2,5 years old but older children would be able to build it themselves.
The set looks so cute and I enjoyed putting it together and would love to collect a little world of sets on a display/play table. Our little girl was interested in the set straight away and started playing with the people and the newspapers. I love the attention to detail — the different magazines and newspapers and the money that looks like real British notes. Our daughter has played with it loads already and I’m sure she’ll have fun with it for a long time.
Go to the Playpress Kickstarter campaign page to learn more about the company and their products, back the campaign and get some Playpress of your own ordered.
We were sent a set to go with this post. As always, all my reviews are 100% honest and all thoughts and opinions are my own.
