| 1 | Building a Pillow Fort VS. Building a Castle in a Video Game | |
| 2 | Develops gross motor skills and sensory awareness. | Develops 3D visualization skills, understanding of volume and perspective, geometric principles, and proportions. |
| 3 | Child учится понимать, как размещение подушек влияет на устойчивость конструкции. | The child plans large-scale projects and works with more complex architectural forms. |
| 4 | A limited number of pillows, blankets, and furniture pieces encourages creative problem-solving. | Unlimited in-game resources allow any idea to come to life. |
| 5 | “Mom, look!” (child spreads arms wide to show how huge the fort is behind them). | (phone screen, messenger, screenshot of the in-game castle, with a message below: Mom, look!) |
| 6 | The room fort is warm, soft, and cozy. | In the virtual castle, you can build your dream room. |
| 7 | Collaborative play, face-to-face time with friends or family in real life. | The ability to play with friends online, regardless of distance. |
| 8 | You will have to take it apart in the evening and build a new one tomorrow. | No cleanup needed. You can keep building and discovering new solutions as long as you like. |
| 9 | Both develop creativity, logic, planning skills, goal-setting, and the ability to overcome challenges on the road to success. And they complement each other beautifully! | |
| 10 | At Animago, we help children develop mindfulness, emotional regulation, and other essential skills that will become the foundation of the castle of their adult lives.
