Educational aspects

FableScapes has been designed for preschool children and kids up to 9-10 years old.

In preschoolers, FableScapes encourages the development of memory and the understanding of temporality, in other words, the meaning of earlier and after.

In kids, it gives the opportunity to stimulate the development of narrative thinking: which is the complex activity of elaborating and understanding events and giving them order, connection and meaning.

Both children and parents can discover and exercise their creativity and push imagination to new limits. Not to mention, they will spend quality time together and intensify the listening and positives exchanges.
