We all know that it is important for children to have playtime, but as adults, we often forget it is important to us as well. Why is this? This is because play is built into our DNA. We can’t help but to be drawn to activities of play. Research shows that there are many benefits of play. We learn to get along better with others and ourselves. Play strengthens the mind and the body, straightening the path toward social competency, emotional stability, physical capability, and success.

This brand have gone mostly digital this season and goodness only knows how they even managed to do this given the circumstances and so many stores. Clearly a very hardworking team. We didn't quite understand the content of the video ourselves although to be fair we didn't spend that much time looking at it. However we do hope that they don't continue down this route into 2021 as we quite liked to see what they do with their windows and large screens are not very exciting to look at.
