Let them play (for real)

Or... when people ask me how to play with Petit Folks…

There’s a big difference between an activity and play.
An activity is when the adult knows exactly what’s going to happen.
Play begins when we let go of control and simply watch what the child discovers on their own.
That’s where the magic happens.

When people ask me how to play with Petit Folks, I always smile… because there isn’t just one way.
There are no instructions, no single path.
Only an invitation: sit at their level, offer the materials, and let your little one guide you.

I remember when, at home, my child used to line up all the cards from our six boxes, one after another, completely focused.
Or when they turned the box into a stool to reach the sink.
And also, when they recognized an illustration and asked for it again and again, or when the eldest put together all the puzzles, waiting for me to sing so she’d know which song came next.

That’s Petit Folks.
A game that grows with them, that changes every day, that adapts to their curiosity, their age, and their moment.

Sometimes it’s about singing together.
Other times, it’s just about watching, laughing, or sharing a quiet moment.
Because what matters isn’t having a clear goal.
What matters is what happens while you play.

And that connection, that shared time — it has no instructions.
🎶 Petit Folks isn’t played in one single way. It’s lived, sung, and shared.
