This is really brilliant, and sounds like a lot of fun for parents and child alike. I build websites and tools for an early childhood nonprofit, but I used to teach elementary school and stay heavily immersed in the material my company develops. I can say that this is such a comprehensive swirl of all of the best thinking in the 3-5 range of learning through imaginative play. It hits on the spacial awareness, fine motor, gross motor, arts, math, storytelling, and the most important stuff in early childhood - social and emotional development - through developing characters and exploring morality, teamwork, relationships, turn taking, sacrifice through them. I would love to see this as a presentation at an EC conference, as I think it would really expand the adults’ oftentimtes cemnted and limited imagination about the potential for play.
