Welcome to Sparkle of Play!

Living in The Netherlands with two toddlers and my husband, I’m the type of mother that like to see our children having fun and provide learning at the same time, without putting them behind a screen.

As a procurement manager I become very selective about the quality of my children’s toys. I researched on “open ended play” concept, and I try to design many kids plays they can do by using existing toys. My friends visiting our house always find us to have unique toys which are almost all open ended. Kids often have hours of fun with creatively play by themselves. So I want to start writing structurally about open ended play, the benefits, the selection of toys, designed games etc. in order to share and encourage this kind of play. The name “Sparkle of Play” is trying to capture that creative, open and exciting element of the open ended play.

Hope you too can find this blog useful and fun to explore together with your loved ones.
