Description

To you it looks just as it always does: a family room, a bedroom, or the backyard. However, it’s incredibly messy – because there’s a child in it – and toys are scattered everywhere. To the child, it’s no ordinary room or yard. It’s a fairyland court complete with royalty, a construction site (looks more like demolition to you), an ancient plain – complete with dinosaurs – or a spacecraft cockpit. The child is at play and totally involved!
