You want a toy that does more than sit on the floor. One that feels fun but offers real value too. Maybe you are tired of plastic toys that beep, break, or get ignored after a day. We were too. That is why we started Playper. Our toys are made from PlayperBoard - a strong paper-based material that holds up to real play. It is not cardboard. It is not flimsy. It is sturdy, safe, and plastic-free. Each toy supports early learning and storytelling. No screens. No batteries. No glue or tape. Just hands-on building and story-driven play. Kids bring the world of Curious Kingdom to life with characters they create stories around. They launch boulders with a catapult, train a dragon, or pick story cards to make up silly or serious plots. You can join them or just watch what happens when they play with purpose. Teachers and early childhood experts helped guide how our toys work. We were honored to receive a Parents.com Best Toy Award. Playper toys are made for kids ages 3 to 9. Younger kids focus on building and naming characters. Older ones create full stories and act them out. Right now, we offer four toys. The Curious Kingdom Castle Playset includes a working drawbridge, trap door, and pop-out characters that spark story ideas. The Catapult Playset lets kids build a launching device and test how far their boulders go. The Dragon Trainer set includes a dragon and gear for pretend training. The Story Starters activity cards include mix and match story cards with characters, places, and things. Perfect for sparking new story ideas and early conversation skills. Playper is a small toy company with a clear goal - to help kids play and grow in a way that is better for them and better for the planet. That means toys that are plastic-free, screen-free, and made for open-ended play. We keep things simple, practical, and fun. If it does not help a child learn or connect, we do not make it. Try one and see what kind of story they tell.

It was a super fun experience for my kids. 7 and 8 yrs old. They built it easily and had fun playing with it.

We're thrilled to hear it has passed the ultimate toddler durability test :) Keeping those little ones engaged and bringing smiles all around is kinda what we're all about!
I didn't know exactly what to expect but I am so impressed with this durable, adorable and oh-so-clever building set with a once-upon-a-time vibe. There's no reading so preschoolers can follow the visual instructions and proudly construct a castle with kooky characters like King Ketchup and an orge, a knight and more. There's even a app if you want to take this adventure to the next level and make the stickers (yes, a jar of pickles!) come alive. I think the grownups will have as much fun as the kids! Not a piece of plastic anywhere - 100% recyclable.

Your review just made our day – it's like a burst of confetti in a castle courtyard! 🎉 We're thrilled to hear that King Ketchup and the gang have captured your heart and imagination. Who knew a jar of pickles could be so adventurous, right? Thanks a jar-full for appreciating our plastic-free commitment – we're all about saving the planet, one pickle adventure at a time! 🌍♻️
Loved the quality and how easy it was to assemble. More that than that I loved the interaction with my granddaughter and the stories we made made up as we assembled the castle playset.

Kurt, hold onto your crown because the real royal treatment is the magical stories you and your granddaughter conjured up while building the castle playset :) It's like turning cardboard into a realm of infinite adventures – move over, fairy tales! Thanks for letting us be a part of your storytelling escapades.
The shipping was so fast and what a fun group of playsets. We had a great time assembling these as a family and my kids are still playing!

Glad the little ones were able to get their hands on it so quickly, Matt. Don't forget to scan the magic stickers!
I loved the velvety feel of the cardboard and felt it was quite hearty. The graphics couldn't be cuter. The 4- and 6-year-old kids I played with didn't want to stop playing with it. 5* for no plastic!
Such a great product, affordable and well made! I love that it's made without plastic and is easy and fun for kids, parent and caregivers to put together. The characters are themed and the digital element helps enhance the experience!

Wow, your review just made our day brighter than a double rainbow on a unicorn parade! And hey, who knew assembling toys could be both easy and fun, right? It's like putting together a puzzle without the stress or the missing pieces – a win-win!
We purchased Playper: Curious Kingdom. Such a fun product! My 5.5 year old found it super fun to put together and LOVED that the characters came alive on the app. Plus it's sustainable, which made my husband and I feel happy about making the purchase. An all around great product! Highly recommend!

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us! Your support for sustainable toys deserves a gold star in our pretend play sticker chart ⭐️
super fun to assemble and play, but there aren’t enough bandaids (or tape, for that matter) to undo the damage done by twin 6 year olds.
We ordered this play kit for our 2.5 year old who immediately tore several of the pieces (on accident). It's not super durable, but overall for the cost, and the preferred non-plastic materials, we are happy with it. Our son has fun popping the windows in and out, but may be a bit young for the pretend play aspect.

It sounds like your little one was on a mission to stress-test the Curious Kingdom – toddlers have a Ph.D. in unintentional destruction, don't they? 😅 We're glad to hear that despite the accidental tore-nados, you still find it to be a good buy.
