Imagination and logical thinking: Compatible?

As we weave tales for young minds, they eagerly absorb every detail, crafting a vivid,

imaginary world behind their eyes. Within the story lies a world of fantasy they inhabit,

ponder, enact, and adore. Beyond this, the bedtime story offers solace after a bustling day of

myriad experiences; as night falls, the same tale unfolds, its unaltered words a comforting

presence as its hero claims just rewards. As the day comes to an end, only one thing remains

unchanged: the bedtime story.

When asked about connecting children with the world of toys, my response is simple:

through the magic of fairy tales. They immerse themselves in the story through play as they

protect the princess, assist Little Red Riding Hood in her journey, or shelter the three little

pigs from the wolf. Their own engagement empowers them, encouraging perseverance as

they confront challenges, strategize, and conquer, mirroring the enduring spirit of fairy tale

heroes who persist and conquer every trial without surrender. What a successful

experience!

How wonderful that in the past decade, game developers have used this knowledge to

produce a range of brain-teasing board games for the little ones, allowing us to simply tell

the stories and engage in play. The games direct young minds, presenting new challenges to

teach that life's hurdles are varied, and through trying, we uncover solutions.

This is the magic of storytelling, living through them, and engaging in play. And this is why

they will live happily ever after...
