Nature has beneficial effects on the health of children, encompassing their physical, mental, and social well-being. Water play, in its diverse forms, enables children to explore a wide range of water properties. Considering that children between the ages of 4 and 6 are skilled at engaging in pretend play to enhance their social abilities, the Flownation toy merges dramatic play with the natural element of water to capture their interest in nature. This toy incorporates various settings and scenarios that encourage children to think critically and engage in imaginative play.
