Decorating your creation is the other half of the fun. The castle is a great choice for parents who want to promote their children’s creativity, and it is a wonderful, unique present for a kid that wants a cool toy. The Calafant Palace is easy to build and decorate with the included 12 markers (non-toxic, washable) or with any craft materials, acrylic paint, watercolor, rhinestones, scrap paper, glitter and aluminum foil — anything that comes to the creative mind. The approximate size of the castle is 9″ x 9″ x 11″ when finished, perfect for Polly Pockets, Playmobile or similar sized toys. It is recommended for children 4 and up.

Creative Toyshop is an online store that specializes in cardboard toys by Calafant. Calafant toys are designed and created in Germany by Boris Schimanski, the well-known German cartoonist and Creative Toyshop is the exclusive US distributor of their cardboard toys.

When we were looking for sponsors for our Because It’s Christmas Kids & Charity Giveaway, Creative Toyshop was a natural choice for us to ask if they would like to participate. As I mentioned before, when we set out to do a Christmas giveaway we started with the intent to find toys that will help inspire kids creativity and encourage their imaginations to flourish in a more natural way. We searched for toys with a message, toys made from natural and organic materials, toys that encourage pretend play, and toys that will last and create lasting memories. But most importantly, we sought out toys that kids would just simply have a great time playing with.

Creative Toyshop carries high-quality cardboard toys that encourage creativity and provide great opportunities to use their imagination. Their toys range from small hand-held sized toys like airplanes and cars to medium and large sized pretend play type toys such as farms and trains all the way on up to a life-sized cardboard castle! All of their toys allow your child to build them out of sturdy white cardboard that is pre-punched and put together without glue or scissors. The small and medium toys come with non-toxic washable markers for your child to decorate their toy.

One of the toys that Creative Toyshop carries is the Dragonrock Castle. Dragonrock Castle is approximately 9″x9″x8″ when built, is made of sturdy cardboard and can be decorated with the 12 non-toxic washable markers it comes with. It is recommended for children 4 and up.

The Dragonrock Castle will easily captivate your child for hours. From the initial building and decorating to the pretend play that ensues, your child’s imagination will explore and expand as they play with it. Another feature of these toys that is unique and helps make the Dragonrock Castle and all of the toys at Creative Toyshop environmentally friendly is that they are recyclable. When your child is “done” playing with the Dragonrock Castle you can either take it apart and save it for another child or recycle it with your other paper and cardboard recycling.

Jake will be receiving the Dragonrock Castle for Christmas and I know he will love it. He just finished a 550 piece puzzle BY HIMSELF so putting the castle together will be great fun for him. Plus he has become quite the artist coloring and drawing and on top of that, he invents stories all the time. Without batteries or controllers or noisy sounds, the Dragonrock Castle will entertain him, help expand his imagination and I can’t wait to see his reaction when he opens it.

Note: by entering this giveaway, you are actually entering to win all the toys in Group 3. The more individual posts you enter, the more of a chance you have to win the Group prizes. The entries will be combined from all posts and a winner selected, so you have a chance to win the Group prizes even if you only enter on one post.
