READ THIS: FASHION SHOW by Heather Zschock
Fashion Shows aren't only for adults, you know! Why not pick up this fabulous item from the Peter Pauper Press for your young one to enjoy while you hit the tents at Bryant Park?
That is exactly what the Whom You Know Petite Peachy Panel did! Here is what they had to say:
My daughter even at age two is a total Fashionista. Any toys, books or dolls that have outfits to change are her favorite. Peter Pauper Press scored huge with my daughter on their Fashion Show: A Paper Doll Fold-Out Play Set. As my daughter is a little young for this book we had to carefully play with the five dolls and the 76 mix-and-match outfits and accessories. I am not sure who had more fun with it me or her. She kept choosing outfits for me to dress and undress the dolls in. From the perfect little black dress to beachware to wedding attire, the possibilities are endless. Then it was easy for her to set them up in the very cool three different stages including a dressing room, fashion runway and photo studio and have great imaginative play which is so important for children. My favorite part about this playset is that you keep everything neatly in a folder at the end of playing so that nothing gets lost or ruined. What a hit!
The Fashion Show paper doll fold-out play set from Peter Pauper Press is a great gift for the budding fashion designers. The set comes with 5 paper dolls and three different background scenes where “models” can rock their best ensembles. And the possibilities seem endless! My favorite thing about this set is the variety of clothing and accessories included. From beach-wear to evening-wear and everything in between, designers can take creative liberties if they choose – pairing a totally glam evening gown with a straw hat and suede boots. And don’t forget the accessories! For those who are more into “matching” rather than “mixing”, there are obvious outfits waiting to be worn. This is the perfect activity for a 2-3 group play date. The pages of punchout models and outfits are made of card-stock so even the most enthusiastic designer won’t wreak havoc on this set. Younger children who “don’t know any better” really should keep their hands off the pieces though, so the 6+ age suggestion seems appropriate.
We were delighted with the Fashion Show Fold-Out Play Set, published by Peter Pauper Press, Inc. This compact play set packs up easily in a child's backpack and is ideal for travel. Promoting creative play with a number of punch out models and fashionable outfits, children can occupy themselves for hours in the airport, car, train and hotel (not to mention at home). The sturdy design ensures that the punch-out models and outfits can be used repeatedly and the hard-bound book assists in keeping punch-outs from becoming damaged during transport. Children can also create their own outfits for the models. We love watching the designs unfold and experiencing the "fashion show". This book is definitely one of the favorites in our family.
