November 21st is National Day of Play, a day created to celebrate open-ended play by inspiring children of all ages to use their most powerful tool: their imagination. But open-ended play doesn’t just help with developing a child's imagination; it also plays an important role in the development of social and cognitive skills, emotional abilities, and abstract thinking. Sponsored by Playmobil, the first annual National Day of Play was observed in 2010 with events at select retailers across the country. On this special Saturday each November children and adults are invited to take part in hands-on play time by exploring the many different worlds offered by Playmobil’s iconic toys.
