FAQ

WHAT IS THE RECOMMENDED AGE FOR SHAPLABOO™ PRODUCTS?

The recommended age is 3-9 years old. But it all depends on the child. We have many readers ranging from 1 to 99 years old😉

WHAT ARE SHAPLABOO™ PRODUCTS MADE OF? ARE THEY DURABLE?

We've crafted our product for the little adventurers out there, the ones who can't resist getting their hands (and sometimes their teeth) on everything. That's why we've made it super tough with high-quality, extra-thick cardboard, so even if they try to break it just for fun, it won't be easy.

We know they love to explore, so we've got their curiosity covered!

WHAT IS A SHADOW PLAY SET?

This is a basic set from SHAPLABOO™ that allows you to put on an exciting theatrical performance at home. The set includes an innovative book with carved illustrations and a set of shadow puppets. You only need a
flashlight, for example, the one from your smartphone and you can read your favorite fairytale in an amazing new format!

Shadow Play Set is suitable for daily use as well as a gift.
