Beautiful and Versatile!

I bought this for my mermaid loving daughter's birthday and she loves it! Didn't play with it much at first, as I planned on using it to decorate her mermaid room, but now she loves to use it as a cape, and play with it in the bath! Sarah's Silks accidentally sent the wrong size initially, and they quickly made it right! Great company and beautiful products.

We are so glad we were able to resolve this for you! We hope the Playsilk is loved for years to come!:)

Another winner. The size of this one is great for imaginative play with other toys. We have a set of wooden fish and other small wooden figurines and my daughter has loved acting out different stories with the silk and wooden toys.

What a wonderful way to play with her Playmap! We hope she enjoys this for many years to come!✨

Hours of imaginative play!

My grandchildren so love this play map! They use small mermaid dolls to pretend they live under the sea. They explore, and imagine what adventures they would have as mermaids! I highly recommend!

Hi Joann! We love to hear about all the fun imaginative play our items bring! Thanks so much for the review :)
