Time to share another BIG winner from Christmas this year: the play silks set.

Grammio gave the girls a gift that, at first glance, may not seem like something terribly special: a set of 14 silk squares (which she purchased from Magic Cabin). But these play silks serve as a foundation for some really incredible imaginative play. They can be transformed into a wide variety of outfits that the girls can fashion together themselves. They can also be turned into shelter, decorations, picnic blankets, and most anything else little minds can imagine.

I have a set of nieces who have owned these for over a year, and I saw how often they played with them, but I was a little stuck on the price. But let me tell you something interesting my mother-in-law learned, and that helped her feel confident about her purchase! She was explaining the concept of the play silks to a friend of hers who is a whiz at sewing. The woman was quick to say, “Oh goodness yes, those would be easy to make.” She then asked how much they cost on the website, and upon hearing the price said, “Oh wow. I couldn’t make them that inexpensively.” SOLD! 🙂

I can certainly vouch for the quality of these products, for the gorgeous, vibrant colors, and for the ease of use for young children to create fun things with them on their own and with a friend. I think they are worth every penny! You also save more if you buy more with the company (right now, for example, if you buy all 14, you save over $10 on your purchase).

I can’t personally vouch for the quality of products beyond what you’ll find at Magic Cabin, but Amazon does seem to have a nice selection of play silks if you’d like to browse what they have. Be sure to read product reviews, though!
